Superhuman is an email client. It bills itself as "the fastest email experience ever made", and it may well be, with its ⌘-K Superhuman shortcut to move nearly every part of email manipulation to the keyboard, and its heavy reliance on local caching to speed up the search and retrieval experience. The learning curve is steep and the price point ($29/month) is high, but many customers point to productivity gains to justify the price.
Superhuman is a layer on top of Gmail, and provides a cohesive design experience in several features and functions that are typically provided by discreet services or extensions. These include: Triage. Undo send. Insights from social networks. Follow-up reminders, Scheduled messages, and read statuses. And more.
According to Capiche user @chrismessina: "Superhuman is so fast, delightful, and intelligent — you'll feel like you have superpowers."
Superhuman is best for professionals who spend a significant amount of time using email.
Features:
- Nearly every possible email action has a keyboard shortcut and the global command palette can perform any task
- Snippets accelerate sending templated emails
- Split inboxes that act as saved searches
- Unsubscribe, note-to-self, calendar with natural language support
- Personal on-boarding includes useful tips on managing your inbox
- Social media profiles are incorporated into the sidebar, just like in Rapportive
- Slack-style colon-initiated inline emoji picker
- Highly responsive customer service
Intelligence:
- Smart composing includes in-body shortcuts like quickly adding recipients by tagging them
- Schedule-later supports natural language (e.g. Send at 8AM San Francisco)
- Actions to support send immediately or later, while also making sure you don't forget to attach that file you referenced.

Email seems impossible to tame. It’s everything: your online address, the bit of identifiable data you use to sign up for apps, apply for jobs, work with clients and colleagues, message friends, follow newsletters, and on and on the list goes. And as such, your inbox isn’t just a list of unread…
Free is a hard genie to put back in the bottle.
When Microsoft charged $999 for Office in 1990, little did they dream that 16 years later, their greatest competitor would be a free office suite from Google—along with dozens of small, often free apps that individually did many of the same tasks as…
A dollar today is worth a bit more than a dollar tomorrow, something we’ve learned from experience since childhood. Yet thanks in part to Moore’s Law, technology flipped the equation on its head. First appliances, then computers, then TVs and phones seemed to offer more and better features each…
