Demi vs Ellie

Demi has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Ellie is an AI email assistant that drafts replies in a user’s writing style using email-thread context. Connected to Gmail or Outlook, it can read incoming messages, categorize them, and save draft replies for review; it does not send messages without the user reviewing and sending them. Ellie learns tone, sign-offs, and writing patterns from sent mail. Users can add website URLs and upload PDF, TXT, DOCX, PPTX, or MD files to provide factual context, while roles set different personas, knowledge bases, and tones for different email types. Ellie supports connected Gmail and Outlook accounts and on-demand drafting in Gmail Web and Outlook Web. It is available on the web, Windows, and through Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge extensions, as well as a native Outlook desktop add-in. The free plan allows 10 draft replies per day but has no auto-drafts. Paid plans start at $19 a month. A 7-day trial is listed. Ellie says email content is processed by OpenAI and/or Azure OpenAI and is not used to train general models.
