Drag turns Gmail into a shared workspace by showing team inboxes as boards, so a support@ address becomes columns such as new, waiting and done that teammates move cards through. Starter costs $12 per user per month billed yearly, or $16 monthly, and already includes shared inboxes, kanban, list and preview views, assignments and @mentions, templates, notes and subtasks, a help center, live chat and ten automation rules. Apps cover the Chrome extension, web, desktop and mobile. Plus at $18 adds Drag's AI assistant Varley across the inbox, help center and live chat, plus unlimited automation rules and email sequences. Pro at $24 brings WhatsApp, business hours and SLA rules, round-robin assignment, custom fields and API and MCP access. Every plan has no seat minimum, which suits a two-person shop. The trade-off is reach: Drag is a Gmail product, and reporting windows are short on the lower plans.

Who it is for

Very small Gmail teams that want the lowest per-user price and a board view of their inbox.
