A menu bar app for Apple Mail

Write it once. Stamp it every time.

Boilerplate Mail turns the emails you retype every week into reusable templates — with fill-in placeholders, rich formatting, and one click to drop them straight into Apple Mail.

The direct download inserts templates with one click, no ⌘V needed — the Mac App Store version can't do this because of Apple's sandboxing rules. Signed and notarized by Apple; not sandboxed or auto-updating.

How it works

Four ways it stays out of your way

{ first name }

Placeholders that fill themselves in

Write {first name}, {date}, or {scheduling link} once. Dates and days compute automatically; anything else pulls from defaults you set once, like your name or your calendar link.

⌃⌥T

Quick Insert from anywhere

A global shortcut opens a fast search panel over whatever you're doing — find a template by name and it's copied before you've let go of the keys.

⌘V

Right inside Mail's compose window

A Mail Extension adds a template picker directly to the compose toolbar. Click one, then paste — no switching apps, no losing your place.

1 click

Turn any draft into a template

Already wrote the perfect email? Save the open draft as a new template in one click, attachments and all.
