“Can a premium AI email client become the orchestration layer for enterprise AI agents across communication and productivity workflows?”
Founded in 2014 as a premium, keyboard-shortcut-driven email client for power users, Superhuman built a high-NPS subscription product at $30/month that attracted VC backing from a16z and IVP. Post-Series C, the company expanded from Gmail to Outlook and layered generative AI drafts into the product. In July 2025, Grammarly acquired Superhuman, folding it into a broader AI productivity platform (Superhuman Platform Inc.) alongside Coda and Grammarly's core writing assistant. As of 2026, Superhuman Mail is one product surface within a multi-product suite, with the MCP Server integration becoming a focal point for agentic AI workflows.
Superhuman was founded by Rahul Vohra, Vivek Sodera and Conrad Irwin and is founded in 2014, headquartered in San Francisco, CA, USA.
Superhuman has raised $114M+ in total (latest round: Series C, 2021; valuation: $825M (pre-acquisition)).
