Every viewer is a paid seat — a 'collaboration tool' that taxes you for letting your team collaborate.
What people actually say
✕We currently pay $87 for 2 users to simply view and reply to emails in Front — the per-seat model penalises any teammate who occasionally needs to see the inbox.

A Postgres-backed shared inbox with email-in via Gmail API or Microsoft Graph, round-robin assignment, and a Next.js UI everyone in your org can log into. No per-seat tax for read-only viewers, no Lite-seat tier — your accounts team and your interns share the same inbox without doubling the bill.
