Get TypeaheadWhat is an email sign-off?
An email sign-off, or email closing, is the short phrase just before your name at the end of an email, such as “Best regards”, “Thanks” or “Kind regards”. It usually follows a closing line: the last sentence, which tells the reader what happens next. Together they set the tone the reader is left with. This tool suggests both for the email you paste, matched to who it's for and the tone you pick, and leaves the body of your email alone.
“Thanks” gets more replies than “Best”.
Boomerang looked at the closings of more than 350,000 email threads. Emails that ended with a form of thanks got a reply 62% of the time, against 46% for those that didn't. “Thanks in advance” led the common closings at 65.7%, and “Best” came last at 51.2%. It's a correlation from mailing-list emails, not a rule, but it points one way: a closing that fits what you're asking is worth a second of thought.

- Where it matters
- Requests that need an answer, replies to clients, a first email to someone new and thank-you notes after an interview or a favor.
- What the Email Sign-Off Picker does
- Reads your email and suggests three to five closing lines and one sign-off for the relationship and tone you pick. It never rewrites the body of your email.
Close your email in three steps.
Paste your email.
The whole draft, up to 1,500 characters, so the suggestions can follow what you're asking.
Pick who it's to and a tone.
Client, colleague, first contact or thank-you. Then friendly, neutral or formal.
Copy the closing you like.
Paste the closing line and sign-off into your draft. The rest of your email stays as you wrote it.
One email, three ways to close it.
Hi Priya, thanks for sending over the brand guidelines. I've gone through them and have two questions about logo spacing on the mobile layout before we start the homepage designs. Could we do a quick call on Thursday or Friday? I'd like to lock the layout by the end of next week.
Closing lines: - Let me know which day works best for you to discuss this. - I will keep an eye out for your availability so we can lock the layout next week. - Please let me know your preferred time for a quick call. Sign-off: Best regards, Why: It matches the neutral tone and clearly prompts the client for their availability without sounding overly familiar or aggressive.
An example run. Your result will vary with your email.
Sign-offs by who you're writing to.
The same sign-off can read warm to one person and cold to another.
A client. “Best regards” or “Kind regards”, after a line that names the next step and when it happens.
A colleague. “Thanks” or “Cheers”, or just your name when you write to each other every day.
Someone new. “Best regards” or “Thank you”, after a line that makes the reply easy, like one clear question.
A thank-you. “Many thanks” or “With thanks”, after a line that says what the help made possible.
You still write the email.
Typeahead finishes your own sentence as you type, in Mail and your other Mac apps; it doesn't write the email for you.
Built for the Mac apps you write in. Typeahead processes writing locally; it goes online only to check your license, look for updates and download your AI model, and none of those requests include anything you write.

End it with one sentence that says what happens next, then a short sign-off and your name. That sentence might confirm a date, ask for a decision or offer help. “Best regards” and “Kind regards” are safe sign-offs with clients and people you haven't met. “Thanks” is a good choice when you're asking for something.
No single sign-off suits every email. When you're asking for something, a form of thanks is a strong default: in Boomerang's study of more than 350,000 email threads, “Thanks in advance” had the highest reply rate of the common closings. For a first contact, “Best regards” is safe. With a colleague you write to every day, “Thanks” or just your name is fine.
Not usually. “Best” is short and neutral, and most people read it as polite. It can feel flat after a warm or grateful message, and it came last of the common closings for replies in Boomerang's study. If you want an answer or you're thanking someone, “Thanks” or “Many thanks” fits better.
No. It reads your email to see who it's for and what you're asking, then suggests closing lines and a sign-off. It never rewrites, corrects or shortens the body. You copy the lines you like into your draft yourself.
Relationship sets who the email is for: a client, a colleague, someone you're writing to for the first time or a thank-you. Tone sets how it sounds: friendly, neutral or formal. A formal note to a new client gets different closings from a friendly one to a teammate.
Your email is sent to our AI provider, Google Gemini, to suggest the closings, and the result comes straight back to you. We don't store it, sell it or use it to build a profile of you. The Typeahead Mac app is different: Typeahead processes writing locally; it goes online only to check your license, look for updates and download your AI model, and none of those requests include anything you write.
