The Needs-You Queue
Badges show a needs-you count, not an unread count.
Inside The Needs-You Queue
Aanty replaces the unread badge with a short, reasoned queue: the messages that actually need a decision or a reply from you, routed by relevance rather than by which channels you happen to belong to.
Routed by relevance, not membership
AI classifies every message after it lands and surfaces only what is actually addressed to you.
Reasons, not just a count
Each item in the queue says why it is there — a question, a pending approval, a direct mention.
Clear it and move on
Working the queue to zero is a real finish line, unlike an unread count that regrows the moment you look away.
The detail
The queue is built on the same relevance routing as the briefing: AI classifies every message after it’s sent and stored, then decides who genuinely needs to see it — not who happens to be a member of the channel it landed in. It’s the practical alternative to an unread badge that only ever grows.
