InboxSLA
Never Miss a Client Reply Deadline Again
Never miss a client reply deadline again.
// overview
InboxSLA injects color-coded SLA badges into your Gmail inbox and alerts you before client reply deadlines expire. Set custom SLA hours per client domain — the extension handles the rest. Green means you're on time, orange means the deadline is approaching, and red means action is needed now. InboxSLA checks your inbox every 5 minutes in the background, so deadlines never slip through the cracks.
