Khosla Invests In Email Analytics Firm Xobni

San Francisco-based Xobni has secured $1.5M of a $4.26M Series A round led by Khosla Ventures, according to a regulatory filing pulled by PEWire. The company was originally seeded by the incubator Y Combinator. Pre-launch Xobni promises an Outlook plugin that tracks email analytics so that power-users can more easily can or specific contacts, threads, or emails by times of day. Xobni says they will help you understand:
+ How do you use email?
+ How much time do you spend reading and writing emails?
+ How quickly do you respond to emails?
+ What time of the day is best for contacting busy people?
+ What time of the day do you receive your most important email?
+ How much time do you spend reading mailing lists?

We are not sure what is the revenue model here but are guessing there will be a free trial followed by a licensing fee and perhaps some enterprise pricing as well.
