After releasing a private version of ChatGPT, billionaire Elon Musk confirmed Xmail’s launch, sparking speculation about its potential to compete with Google’s Girnail service. In a conversation on his YogaSyal media platform X, Nagan Santh said that a service called ‘Excel’ is coming soon.

The announcement comes after Google faced rumors of shutting down Gmail after a fake image started circulating on social media networks. Elon Musk did not provide additional details about the service, so it is unknown when it will be accessible. It is also expected to be integrated into the X app.

The confirmation came after Nakhan McGrady, a senior member of X’s security engineering team, questioned Xmail’s launch date. Elon Musk responded by confirming that the service is on the way, which is claimed to lay the groundwork for what could be a huge shakeup in the email service sector.
