Echoing same thoughts here too and was even going to lay some kudos for any tool looking to provide some improvements to the more mundane day to day aspects that we still have to deal with because of a lack of much innovation.

Meetings, emails, and other mundane stuff like documentation generation and such would be really prime things I'd love to see tackled. Sadly, its not sexy enough to expend resources on unless you throw in some AI or other trendy hook.

Email in particular is the bain of my existence. Our tools around it suck (Outlook), provide no real management features (gmail) or seem to be stuck in the early 2000s (Thunderbird).

Particularly I am desperate for more developer friendly ways to script, automate and manage email correspondence and chains because I feel 80% of my day is wasted just reviewing wtf is in my inbox.
