Jmail is a browser-based archive of public emails released by the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA). [1] [2] The website is stylized in a Gmail-based interface, with the goal of making EFTA releases easier to access and browse. [3] [4] [5] The site is from the viewpoint of financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's personal email inbox, jeevacation@gmail.com, [6] [7] and contains text conversations up to 2019. [8] Jmail incorporates "Jemini", an artificial intelligence that searches through EFTA text releases in order to counter United States Department of Justice claims that searching through the releases is impractical due to "technical limitations". [9] Additionally, the site uses Gemini to scan each EFTA document via optical character recognition, which is then used to extract text. [10] A "people" tab highlights prominent individuals mentioned in the emails. [11]

Jmail was started by Riley Walz, an internet artist, and Luke Igel, a web developer. [3] [12] The website was first unveiled via a Twitter post by Walz, which noted that "we cloned Gmail, except you're logged in as Epstein and can see his emails". [13] [14] Igel stated that "I think the craziest, most meta [part] is that you're reading his private emails of him trying to clean up his own reputation". [15] The site was publicly launched in November 2025; [9] it took five hours in total to develop. [16] Later, Walz and Igel's friends developed JPhotos, an image database of EFTA releases; JFlights, a flight tracking website of Epstein's flights, [17] ; and Jamazon, a website similar to Jmail that tracks Epstein's Amazon orders. [18] [19]

According to the project's official credits page, different contributors for different parts of the project include Diego Rodriguez, Cora, Melissa Du, Ricardo de Arruda, Aidan Dunlap, Advait Paliwal, Molly Cantillon, Will Depue, Jason Liu, and Watcher. [20]

As of late-November 2025, the website amassed an estimated 18.4 million visits. [21]
