How many mailing lists are you on that fill your email inbox every day? Figuring out how to unsubscribe from all of them can be a pain. From that frustration was born Unsubscribe.com, an LA-based startup that just closed a $2.1 million Series A financing. Charles River Ventures led the round. Other investors include Ron Conway’s SV Angel, First Round Capital, DFJ Frontier as well as angel investors including Matt Coffin, Tim Ferriss, and Matt Brezina.
Unsubscribe.com was started by James Siminoff (who previously founded PhoneTag/Simulscribe, which is now part of DiTech), Joshua Roth, and Wil Schroter. It adds an “Unsubscribe” button to every email. If you want to unsubscribe from an email or marketing list, all you need to do is click the button, and Unsubscribe takes care of the rest. In order to use the service, you first need to download an extension for your email client. Right now, it supports Outlook and Gmail, or you can forward emails
to mail@unsubscribe.com if you have an account. (Yahoo, Hotmail, and AOL are coming soon). You get five free unsubscribes per month, or can pay $20 a year for unlimited usage. VC Fred Wilson tried it and he loves it, although he is not an investor.
