What is Superhuman?

Superhuman is becoming an email agent, not an email client

Superhuman has spent the last two months turning the inbox into an agent surface: an MCP server, a Codex plugin with prebuilt skills, Draft Sync so external assistants can write into Gmail and Outlook, and now Auto Drafts that pre-write a reply to every message that needs one. The rest of the roadmap — Android calendar, multi-day iOS views, notification quick-reply — is parity work running underneath the AI push.

What is RSS.com?

RSS.com opened a public API, then its changelog went quiet

RSS.com is a podcast hosting platform that spent late 2025 shipping ecosystem features — a public API, Podcasting 2.0 Location Tags, and a year of analytics lookback. Its changelog has not updated since December 2025, so more recent direction is unclear.

Superhuman vs RSS.com: editorial side-by-side

S7.5

Superhuman is becoming an email agent, not an email client

◆ Current state

Superhuman has spent the last two months turning the inbox into an agent surface: an MCP server, a Codex plugin with prebuilt skills, Draft Sync so external assistants can write into Gmail and Outlook, and now Auto Drafts that pre-write a reply to every message that needs one. The rest of the roadmap — Android calendar, multi-day iOS views, notification quick-reply — is parity work running underneath the AI push.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is to reduce the human to an editor. Auto Drafts already claims 60% of replies sent unedited and pulls context from calendar and the web, while the MCP surface lets any agent triage, draft, and schedule. Expect the mobile and calendar catch-up to continue while the AI layer absorbs more of the reply workflow.

◆ Prediction

Next likely move is wiring Auto Drafts into more tools — the changelog already promises Slack, CRM, and meeting-notes context — pushing toward send-ready replies drawn from a user's whole stack.

RSS.com opened a public API, then its changelog went quiet

◆ Current state

RSS.com is a podcast hosting platform that spent late 2025 shipping ecosystem features — a public API, Podcasting 2.0 Location Tags, and a year of analytics lookback. Its changelog has not updated since December 2025, so more recent direction is unclear.

◆ Where it's heading

The late-2025 arc pointed toward opening the platform up: an API for third-party automation and standards-based metadata. Whether that momentum continued isn't visible, as the feed has been silent for months.

◆ Prediction

Insufficient recent data to predict confidently; the last visible direction was building API-driven integrations, but the months-long changelog gap makes any near-term call speculative.
