Orientation
Built for your screen reader
Landmarks, skip links, and predictable focus keep VoiceOver, TalkBack, NVDA, and JAWS oriented. Spoken announcements and optional tones confirm sends, refreshes, and moves—so you never wonder if it worked.
Email built for your accessibility
Email for Blind People
BlindBox is the only email designed specifically for the blind and visually impaired. Stay oriented and move through your inbox with confidence on both desktop and mobile.
What sets BlindBox apart
Accessible email without the compromise.
Reliable navigation, clear feedback, custom apps on every device, and AI that turns attachments into something you can actually use.
Mail providers
Keep the email you already have
✓Gmail
✓Outlook
✓Apple Mail- Others
Voice
Voice commands and intelligent dictation
Say “reply,” “archive,” or “send email” to act instantly. Then dictate freely: on-device AI cleans up punctuation and filler words, keeping your meaning and tone intact.
Attachments unlocked
AI that describes what you cannot see
Insight describes photos and summarizes PDFs as they arrive—so a receipt, scan, or image is never a blank mystery.
Block Mode & Voice Mode
Big tiles, or just your voice
Block Mode turns your inbox into a grid of large tiles—Next Email, Read Email, Reply, Archive—so every action is one tap away. Voice Mode is a screen you simply talk to: ask for your newest email, reply in your own words, and nothing changes until you say yes.
Daily workflow
Voice, files, and a quieter inbox when you need it.
Four small features that save real time once they become habit.
Audio replies in compose
Record, preview, and attach a voice clip when speaking is faster—or clearer—than typing.
One Files list Most Loved
Every attachment across all your mail in a single list. Find what you need without clicking in and out of old threads.
Fast actions
Next email and Delete sit right under every message header, so you can work through your inbox one message after another without hunting through menus. Delete always asks first.
Prioritize later
Not ready to deal with it? Pick a time, from 1 hour to 1 week, and the email moves back to the front of your inbox when you are.
Everything else you need
A full mail app—not a niche demo.
Multiple accounts, calendars, contacts, and careful security—the everyday necessities of email, built to stay accessible.
Multi-provider mail
Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Proton and any other IMAP email provider in one place — unified or by account.
Calendar connections
Send invites to Google, Microsoft, or Apple. We connect to your calendar; we do not replace it...yet (BlindBox calendar coming soon!).
Address book integration
Open a clear, screen-reader-friendly list of recipients while you compose — or use our intelligent recipient dictation to quickly add multiple recipients.
Keyboard-first power
Shortcuts, landmark jumps, and predictable focus paths for people who live at a desk.
Privacy and security
Encrypted credentials, careful session handling, and CASA-certified controls accross all our apps.
Settings that travel

Why we built this
Accessibility is the product— not a checklist.
Most email apps treat screen readers as an afterthought. BlindBox starts with orientation and honest feedback, then adds the extra bells and whistles.
- You always know where focus is—and what just happened.
- Dictate privately on-device with speech cleanup.
- Reply by voice when typing slows you down.
- Find every attachment in one Files list.
- Get a plain-language read on images and PDFs.
- Move through mail one press at a time with quick actions.
- Prioritize an email for later—it comes back when you choose.
From our users
People who use it every day
The idea
"Blind Sight quiets the visual layer without teaching you a second product—folders, compose, and shortcuts stay familiar."
"I finally have an inbox that announces what changed and where I am. I am not guessing after every send or folder switch."
"Blind Sight is the first reduced mode that still feels like the same product—not a stripped-down afterthought."
Principles
How we decide what to build.
Three commitments that keep BlindBox useful, honest, and worth opening every day for the people it was made for.
If a flow is hard with a screen reader, it is not finished. Orientation and feedback come before polish.
Independence beats spectacle. We ship tools that remove friction—not features that look impressive in a demo.
Clear limits, honest pricing, and privacy-minded defaults. Reliability beats novelty.
