Vidi vs Right Inbox at a glance
Right Inbox does many Gmail things. Vidi does one email thing, everywhere. Here’s the honest split.
| Feature | Vidi | Right Inbox |
|---|
| What it is | A read-receipt tool, one job | A Gmail productivity suite |
| Open tracking | Core feature | One feature among many |
| Read status at a glance | WhatsApp-style ticks in your inbox | Tracking within Gmail |
| Honest handling of automated opens | Yes — machine opens labelled, not faked | Reports raw opens |
| Works beyond Gmail | Yes — also Outlook.com & Yahoo Mail | Gmail only |
| Starting price | $1.99/month (limited launch price) | Higher — bundles more features |
Why people switch from Right Inbox to Vidi
1. Your email isn’t only in Gmail
Right Inbox stops at Gmail’s edge. If you also send from Outlook.com or Yahoo Mail, Vidi tracks those from the same extension — no second tool.
2. You want the receipt, not the whole suite
If tracking is the only Right Inbox feature you actually use, you’re paying for the rest. Vidi charges for the part you use, at a low launch price.
3. A clear, honest read status
Familiar ticks in your inbox, green only on a genuine human open, with machine pre-fetches labelled honestly — see Apple Mail Privacy Protection and open tracking.
When Right Inbox makes sense
If you live entirely in Gmail and want reminders, templates and send-later alongside tracking, Right Inbox’s bundle is convenient. If you want focused read receipts across more than one inbox, that’s Vidi. Try it and compare, with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
