Vecka
A workspace that puts tasks, notes, calendar and Gmail side by side, with mail that sorts itself.
Vecka is the workspace I build and use every day. Vecka is Swedish for week. It started as my own dashboard. This summer I rebuilt my personal setup three times, a finance hub, then a task system modeled on Things, then a suite on my own server. Each time the useful part was the same, everything I need for the week side by side. In July I pulled that out and made it a product, and vecka.ai went live at the end of August.
The mail model
Mail was the part I cared about most, because it's where a week goes to die. Every email gets one request to Jev, a decision model from TypeSafe, asking several questions at once. Which project, which of 11 filters, did a person write it, does it need a reply, is there a to-do or an event inside.
My rule was near zero wrong filings. A missed email you can find, a misfiled one you never see again. So Vecka only files when Jev is confident twice over, and anything less becomes a maybe you confirm. It also had to work for normal inboxes, not just mine, so I built a benchmark of 625 made-up threads from 12 kinds of people, a nurse, a parent, a landlord, someone writing in Spanish, and kept tuning until the numbers held.
- 125 → 232
- correct project filings
- 2
- wrong filings left
- 98.6%
- of mail needing a reply caught
- ~15¢
- per 1,000 emails
One honest caveat. The filter scores measure agreement with a larger model acting as judge, not perfect ground truth.
What I'm working on
The assistant. Memory that learns who you are, a reply queue that knows what actually needs you, and mail that files itself into the right project.
