Skipper — The better way to manage Github notifications
We aggregate all of your Github notification to then filter, process, and restructured them so that you can focus on what's important.
We also have a native MacOS app that'll hold all of these aggregated notifications for you right in your menu bar, so you don't have to stray too far outside your usual workflow to get to your updates.

How it works
At its core, Skipper is a smart, tiny inbox for managing your Github notifications. It does a bunch of clever things — both small and large — to make your notifications meaningful and easy to go through.
Our secret sauce is a careful combination of filtering, processing, and restructuring all of your notifications to create a new, more useful system.
1. Filtering — Removing bad notifications
We start off by removing all notifications that don't mean anything to you. We do this using a proprietary algorithm that we've developed over the past 3+ years.
2. Processing — Sorting & ranking
Once we have these meaningful notifications, we process them to understand how important they are to you. Again, we do this by using a proprietary algorithm that we've developed over the past 5+ years.
3. Restructuring — Merging into branches
Finally, we restructure these notifications into groups based on their branch to avoid needless context switching.
4. Inbox — Putting it all together
Finally, we restructure these notifications into groups based on their branch to avoid needless context switching.
