Key features
Extra
- Today tab
- A daily briefing that splits the day into Needs Action, Happening Today, Good to Know and More to Browse, with reply drafts and action items prepared before you open the inbox.
- Automatic categories
- Mail is sorted into groups such as News, Shop, Receipts, Events, Travel, Notifications, Personal and Packages, and you can create custom categories of your own.
- Bulk unsubscribe
- Shows who emails you most and how much of it you read, then unsubscribes using the sender's own unsubscribe method and adds a mailbox filter for that sender's future messages.
- Voice Mode
- Speak a reply and Extra drafts it in your tone of voice, which it learns from the emails you send. The draft can be reviewed and edited before it goes out.
- Extra Assist
- An assistant that answers questions from your inbox, such as finding a confirmation number or summarizing a month of ride spending, and helps draft replies.
- Natural-language search
- Search by topic or context, for example a flight confirmation or a restaurant recommendation from last month, without needing the exact keywords.
Superhuman Mail
- Split Inbox
- Divides the inbox into separate tabs, for example mail from teammates, VIPs or specific tools, so each stream can be worked through on its own.
- Keyboard shortcuts and Snippets
- Most actions have a keyboard shortcut, and Snippets insert saved phrases, paragraphs or whole emails as you type.
- Superhuman AI
- Write with AI, Instant Reply, Auto Summarize and Auto Labels are on every plan. Auto Drafts, Ask AI and the Mail MCP server need Business or Enterprise.

- Shared conversations and comments
- Share a live view of a thread with teammates, comment on it, work on shared drafts and see when a colleague is already replying.
- Calendar and scheduling
- See the day's or week's calendar next to an email, create events, share availability and send booking links, with Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams links.
