Security & beta status

Last updated: September 2026

This page states plainly what Monty is today, so that nobody has to infer it. It is linked from the Beta marker in the app, from the mailbox connection screens, and from signup.

Monty is in beta

Features may have bugs, behaviour can change without notice, and AI output can be wrong. Always review AI-generated content before it reaches a contact.

Beta means we ship often. A screen you used yesterday may look different today, and a defect you hit may already be fixed — or may not be known to us at all. If something is wrong, tell us at hello@montyai.co.

Some features are experimental

Anything marked Experimental is unfinished and under active development. It may be inaccurate, change shape, or be withdrawn. Do not build a process around it that you cannot unwind.

Experimental features carry an amber Experimental badge next to the control itself, rather than being listed here — a list on this page would go stale, and the badge is where the decision is actually made.

Independent security assessment is not complete

Monty has not yet passed CASA (Cloud Application Security Assessment), the independent review Google requires for apps that use restricted Gmail scopes. We are pursuing it. Until it is granted, treat Monty as pre-certification software and connect Google mailboxes accordingly.

CASA is the Cloud Application Security Assessment. Google requires it of applications that use restricted Gmail scopes — the level of access Monty needs in order to read replies and send on your behalf. We have not completed it. That is a statement about our certification status, not a claim that your data is unprotected, and equally not a substitute for the assurance a completed assessment would give you.

This applies to Gmail and Google Workspace only. Outlook and Microsoft 365 mailboxes are unaffected. CASA is Google’s programme, so it governs Google mailboxes and nothing else. If you connect Outlook or Microsoft 365, this section does not apply to you.

If your organisation requires a completed CASA assessment before connecting a mailbox, wait for ours. We will update this page when it is granted.
