A Gmail extension for creators
Sir inspects every brand pitch before you reply: is the sender really the brand, is that “brief” malware, and what do the terms actually say? All of it on your computer — your inbox never leaves your browser.
Free for protection · Pro is $7/month or $59/year · 7-day trial, no card
NordVPN_Brief_Q4.zip01 — The problem
A “brand” emails you. The rate is great. The brief is a password-protected ZIP, or the contract needs you to “sign in with Google” to view it. One click later an infostealer has your session cookies and your channel is streaming crypto scams.
It hits creators with 5k subscribers and 5M alike, and Gmail’s spam filter waves most of it through because the domain is brand new. Sponsir reads the message you already have open, on your computer, and tells you in one sentence what it is.
02 — What Sir does
Domains are matched against the brands named in the email. Lookalikes, punycode, free-mail “brand managers” and mismatched Reply-To addresses are called out on the thread.
Rate, deliverables, deadline, exclusivity, usage rights and payment terms pulled into a deal sheet, with what’s missing and what to push back on. Ten a month free, unlimited on Pro.
Push back: perpetual usage is worth 2–3× the rate. Ask for 12 months, paid channels only.
Save a pitch to the tracker from the message. Move it from negotiating to paid, get nudged before deliverables are due and when an invoice passes Net 30. Export to CSV any time.

04 — Questions
Only on your screen. It runs as a browser extension on the Gmail tab you already have open and analyses the message you are looking at, locally. There is no server, no Gmail API access and no OAuth “read all your mail” permission to grant. Nothing is uploaded.
Gmail catches known bad senders. Sponsorship scams use freshly registered lookalike domains and clean-looking archives, so most land in the inbox. Sponsir understands the context — that an email claiming to be NordVPN isn’t from a NordVPN domain, or that a “brief” shouldn’t be a password-protected ZIP.
Yes. Workspace uses the same Gmail interface, so Sponsir works on you@yourbrand.com exactly as on @gmail.com.
Not at launch. Paste any DM into the free Pitch Checker and you get the same analysis. In-app DM support is on the roadmap.
Yes — that’s why the badge says Unverified rather than Scam unless the signals are unambiguous (lookalike domain plus a malware-style attachment, for example). You can mark a sender as trusted; that choice stays on your device.
Chrome and Edge at launch (any Chromium browser that can install from the Chrome Web Store). Firefox is planned.
House of Arqam Ventures LLC — the team behind Manila Mail Manager, a local-first Gmail extension used to find and cancel subscriptions. Sponsir is built on the same privacy-first engine.
One email when the extension is ready. Nothing else.
