About Superhuman
What is Superhuman (2026 update)
Superhuman is an AI-powered email client built for speed, aimed at professionals who send and receive a high volume of email and want a faster inbox than Gmail or Outlook offer by default. It layers keyboard-first navigation and AI features like auto-labeling, prioritization, and drafting on top of an existing Gmail or Outlook account, and it now sits inside Grammarly’s broader product suite after last year’s acquisition, which folded Superhuman’s email and productivity tools alongside Grammarly’s writing assistant and Coda’s document platform.
What is new in 2026
Superhuman’s biggest 2026 addition is Auto Drafts, an AI feature that monitors your inbox, identifies which emails need a reply, and writes a full draft in your own voice without you prompting it, alongside auto-labeling and automatic archiving of low-priority messages. In July 2026, Superhuman launched Superhuman Docs, an AI-native evolution of Coda that can turn a plain description into a working document with text, tables, and formulas, and that can be pulled into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor with no extra setup. Superhuman Go, its proactive AI agent system, expanded in February 2026 with partner agents from Box, Gamma, and Wayground, adding capabilities like visual content creation and enterprise document access, with admin controls over who can build agents and which connectors they can use. The mobile app was also fully rebuilt in September 2026 for faster, more intuitive interactions. On pricing, the standalone low-cost Starter plan was discontinued for new users after the Grammarly acquisition, so email access now requires at least the Business plan.

Pricing in 2026
Superhuman has no free tier. After the Grammarly acquisition, new customers must start at the Business plan to get Superhuman Mail, since the old standalone Starter tier is no longer sold to new users.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Business | $33/month per member billed annually, $40/month billed monthly | Superhuman Mail with Auto Drafts, AI labeling, Docs, and Go agents |
| Enterprise | Custom, contact sales | Business features plus admin governance, connector controls, and enterprise support |
Who should use it
Superhuman fits executives, salespeople, founders, and other professionals who live in their inbox and are willing to pay a premium for speed and AI-assisted drafting. Teams already using Grammarly or considering Superhuman Docs for lightweight document collaboration may get extra value from having both in one subscription. It is a harder sell for casual email users or anyone hoping for a free or low-cost plan, since Superhuman Mail now starts at the Business tier.
Limitations and alternatives
There is no free plan, and the removal of the standalone Starter tier for new users raised the effective entry price to at least $33 a month per person. Auto Drafts and other AI features depend on Superhuman having enough context from your past emails to sound like you, so early results can be inconsistent until it has learned your style. Alternatives to compare include Shortwave, which offers a similar AI email experience at a lower price, Spark for a free AI-assisted inbox, and the built-in Gemini or Copilot assistants inside Gmail and Outlook for users who do not want a separate subscription.
