Hi HN, I’m Emin, founder of Naylalabs. For years, we ran email infrastructure for our own team. In August, we opened it up as FranklyMail, and yesterday we crossed 250 paying customers.
The idea was simple: give a small team email on its own domain without another per-person subscription every time someone joins. FranklyMail costs $9/year for an account, with unlimited mailboxes and domains sharing 10 GB of storage. Extra storage is $0.40/GB/year, shared between email and files.
Since launch, we’ve brought calendars, video meetings, booking pages and file sharing into the same workspace. You can go from an email to a calendar invitation with a meeting link, then share the files you discussed. My goal is to build an affordable business suite that covers the everyday work of running a small business.
We build on Stalwart and SnappyMail, and support standard protocols so you can use existing email clients and move your mail elsewhere. You can also manage your inbox through ChatGPT or Claude via our MCP connector, with every outgoing message requiring your review and approval. Our own mobile apps and desktop clients are currently in review ahead of release.
A lot of the work has also gone into making the switch manageable: domain setup, importing old mail and improving the webmail experience. Conversations with paying customers have helped shape what we work on next.
