What is Superhuman?

Superhuman's MCP now lets Claude and ChatGPT attach files, set reminders and share threads.

Superhuman is a premium email client building a calendar, team comments and AI around its mail core. On 11 November its Mail MCP gained four abilities in Claude, ChatGPT and other AI tools: setting follow-up reminders, sending attachments, using private and team snippets, and sharing threads for team comments. The MCP stays on Business and Enterprise plans, a week after a team admin console reached every plan.

SlickText vs Superhuman: editorial side-by-side

S5.0

SlickText's feed is all SMS buying guides; no product release has surfaced since RCS.

◆ Current state

SlickText's recent feed is entirely search content: SMS segmentation, church and nonprofit texting comparisons, Black Friday tactics, cost breakdowns and guides on annual plans. No release appears in the entries since the basic RCS addition.

◆ Where it's heading

The content is getting more explicit about buying decisions. Vertical comparison pages, published prices and an outgrown-your-platform pitch all aim at people ready to switch. Product motion cannot be read from these posts.

◆ Prediction

Expect Black Friday content through November and more vertical comparison pages. These entries give no evidence of how RCS is progressing.

S5.0

Superhuman's MCP now lets Claude and ChatGPT attach files, set reminders and share threads.

◆ Current state

Superhuman is a premium email client building a calendar, team comments and AI around its mail core. On 11 November its Mail MCP gained four abilities in Claude, ChatGPT and other AI tools: setting follow-up reminders, sending attachments, using private and team snippets, and sharing threads for team comments. The MCP stays on Business and Enterprise plans, a week after a team admin console reached every plan.

◆ Where it's heading

Superhuman is making its mail features callable from outside AI assistants rather than only from its own app. Each MCP addition maps an existing Superhuman feature, such as reminders, snippets or shared comments, onto a tool an assistant can use, with sharing gated on the user's confirmation. Keeping the MCP on paid team plans ties it to the admin and usage reporting shipped the week before.

◆ Prediction

More Superhuman features exposed through the MCP is the likely next step, with calendar and Auto Labels the obvious gaps; the entries do not show whether the MCP will reach lower plans.
