NornWeave Roadmap

NornWeave is being developed in phases. This page outlines the current status and upcoming features.

Phase 1: Foundation (The Mail Proxy) - Available

The foundation layer is complete and provides core email functionality:

• Virtual Inboxes: Create email addresses for your AI agents
• Webhook Ingestion: Receive emails from Mailgun, SES, SendGrid, Resend
• Persistent Storage: SQLite (default) or PostgreSQL with abstracted storage adapters
• Email Sending: Send replies through your configured provider

Phase 2: Intelligence (The Agent Layer) - Available

The intelligence layer adds LLM-friendly features:

• Content Parsing: HTML to clean Markdown conversion
• Cruft Removal: Automatic removal of reply quotes and signatures
• Smart Threading: Automatic conversation grouping via email headers
• MCP Server: Direct integration with Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients
• Attachment Processing: Extract text from PDFs and documents
• LLM Thread Summaries: BYO API key for OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini to auto-summarize threads. AI agents can understand a 50-email thread from just the summary + last 2 messages. Includes daily token budgeting.

Phase 3: Enterprise Platform - Coming Soon

Phase 3 will bring enterprise-grade features for production deployments.

Semantic Search

Vector embeddings for intelligent message search.

# Instead of exact text matching...
POST /v1/search
{
  "query": "Find the invoice from last week"
}

• Uses vector embeddings (pgvector) for semantic understanding
• Natural language queries like “emails about refunds”
• Ranked results by relevance
• Filter by date, sender, inbox

Real-time Webhooks

Register URLs to receive notifications when new messages arrive.

POST /v1/webhooks
{
  "url": "https://my-agent.com/webhook",
  "events": ["message.received"],
  "inbox_id": "ibx_123"
}

• Instant notifications for new messages
• Configurable event types
• Retry logic with exponential backoff
• Webhook signature verification

Multi-Tenancy

Organizations and projects to isolate data for teams.

Organization
├── Project: Production
│   ├── Inbox: support@...
│   └── Inbox: sales@...
└── Project: Staging
    └── Inbox: test@...

• Organizations: Top-level isolation for companies
• Projects: Environments within an organization
• API Keys: Scoped to projects
• Usage Tracking: Per-project metrics

Custom Domains

Manage DKIM/SPF verification status for your domains.

POST /v1/domains
{
  "domain": "mail.example.com"
}

# Response includes DNS records to configure
{
  "domain": "mail.example.com",
  "status": "pending",
  "dns_records": [
    {"type": "TXT", "name": "_dmarc", "value": "..."},
    {"type": "CNAME", "name": "selector._domainkey", "value": "..."}
  ]
}

• Domain verification workflow
• Automatic DNS record generation
• Status monitoring
• Multiple domains per project

Advanced Rate Limiting and Credits

Granular rate limiting and usage management beyond the global send limits already available.

• Per-inbox and per-recipient-domain rate limits
• Organization-wide quotas (requires multi-tenancy)
• Usage alerts and notifications
• Credit-based billing support

Analytics Dashboard

Visibility into email operations.

• Message volume over time
• Response time metrics
• Error rates and debugging
• Per-inbox statistics

Future Considerations

These features are being evaluated for future phases:

Calendar Integration

Parse and respond to calendar invites within email threads.

Contact Management

Build and maintain contact profiles from email interactions.

Template Engine

Pre-defined response templates for common scenarios.

Approval Workflows

Human-in-the-loop approval before sending sensitive emails.
