What you get

Every plan includes Superhuman's fast, keyboard-driven inbox, its split inbox, reminders, and its AI features for summaries and writing replies. Business adds team and admin features, and integrations aimed at sales teams. Superhuman works with Gmail, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 or Outlook accounts, on Mac, Windows, the web, iPhone and Android.

The AI runs in the cloud, so your email is processed on Superhuman's servers to power those features.

Cheaper ways to get fast email

If what you want is speed and a sorted inbox, you don't have to pay a subscription for it:

  • Dusk is a Mac mail app for Gmail, Google Workspace and iCloud. It's keyboard-first like Superhuman, sorts and sums up every email, and writes reply suggestions, but the AI runs on your Mac and it's $49 once. That's less than two months of Superhuman Starter. See Dusk vs Superhuman.
  • Mimestream is a fast native Gmail app for $49.99 a year, with no AI.
  • Apple Mail is free, and now sorts and summarises with Apple Intelligence.

The full list is in the best Superhuman alternatives.

Is Superhuman worth $30 a month?

It can be, if email is most of your job and you need it on Windows or with Outlook. For Mac users on Gmail or iCloud, the same speed is now available without a monthly bill. We wrote a longer answer in is Superhuman worth it?
