Superhuman is an email app founded in 2014 by Rahul Vohra.[1] It is targeted at users who want to improve their productivity and features liberal use of keyboard shortcuts to speed up email reading and replying.[2] The app charges $30/month to users ($10 for students) and claims they can save up to three hours a week by using it.[3][4][5]

Superhuman has raised over $100 million from venture capitalists including Andreesen Horowitz.[6][7] Initially, the app only integrated with Gmail, but in May 2022 launched integration with Microsoft Outlook.[8] In February 2024, Superhuman announced AI-powered drafts for instant replies.[9]
