Serious question: Did you read the article, or did you just watch the video? Reading the article along with watching the video made it perfectly clear to me what this product is doing, despite the fluff in the video.
I read the original link, and watched the video on that page, and had pretty much the same reaction as the parent commenter. If this service is perfectly clear to you, then please elaborate for the rest of us.
It appears to be sorting and arranging various bits of data. The examples shown include messages, and a flight reservation. What all kinds of data bits DO integrate? Does this read my email (or replace it)? Does this read (or replace) the news feeds of my social networking accounts? Where did it get that flight itinerary? Why is everyone in this video talking a selfie every two seconds, is Inbox sharing or managing photos for you?
I think this supposed to be an improved version of Google Keep, perhaps with some hooks into Gmail and your phone's camera. But all I have to go by is a few paragraph of fluff, and a 60-second video of young people staring down at their phones. Feel free to fill in the blanks, if you picked up some more solid information that we're missing.
The landing page for inbox.google.com, if you scroll down slowly as you read it, seemed to explain it very well, and showcased example workflows. The video didn't convert me, but the website did.
Are you kidding, or are you seeing a different page than me? Literally all the page has for me is an "Inbox by Gmail" logo on top and some text below for "Already have an invitation?" and "Need an invitation?". No information whatsoever.
