About Macro

Macro is an open-source workspace that replaces 27+ apps: one inbox for emails, agents, tasks and messages, with one search and bidirectional links across your work. It combines email and chat, CRDT documents with live agent edits, sheets and databases imported from Google Sheets and Notion, and a CRM whose companies and contacts are created from email - agents update deal stages and draft follow-ups. Coding agents can be used in channels, following a task through to a pull request.
