I'm curious, and not willing to fill out a form to find out... it looks like N1 uses Nylas Cloud for data/services... that said, there's no actual published cost for this. I have several email accounts and would love a cloud/web version to access them all, combined with a standalone (desktop-ish) app, as the electron one... But I'm concerned about the pricing model, and with no openly published price, and no apparent income source, I am hesitant to even try the application.

Thanks for the work you are doing here, I feel that Email is one area that could use a lot of work.

It's here: https://nylas.com/pricing

And you can read our blog post about announcing the pricing: https://nylas.com/blog/nylas-pro/

We haven't yet shipped the version which allows you to upgrade, but it's coming shortly.

Thanks, I didn't see an obvious link (should have clicked "more"), wound up on NylasCloud page, which did have pricing, but that linked to a contact form.

Might be worth having a Pricing link/button next to download, and from the Free column, to the download screen.

Also, since the data is all in your cloud, would be nice to have a "web" version, so that I could use the app without needing to install. That would be ideal for me, a web-mail app that I can manage all my accounts from anywhere, even when I'm not on my home computer.

Just a few thoughts.
