Superhuman

Superhuman is rebuilding around the assistant: pre-drafted replies and multi-account MCP.

Current state
Superhuman ships small and often, and its releases now split cleanly in two. One half is conventional client work — calendar on Android, multi-day views on iPhone and iPad, personalized availability sharing. The other is an aggressive agent surface: Auto Drafts 2.0 pre-drafts a reply to every message that needs one, and the Mail MCP now drives multiple Gmail and Outlook accounts from Claude, ChatGPT and Codex.
Where it's heading
The centre of gravity is moving off Superhuman's own client. Each recent release makes the mailbox more usable from somewhere else — first a Codex plugin with prebuilt workflows, then parallel search across every connected account — while in-app work is mostly mobile parity. Superhuman is positioning as the mail layer assistants call, and it names the single-account limit of the first-party Gmail and Outlook connectors as the reason to switch.
Prediction
Expect the MCP surface to keep absorbing the features that only the client could do — Split Inbox triage, Read Statuses, Smart Send are already listed — with the native apps continuing to trail on platform parity.

Recent moves

    Multiple email accounts in Claude, ChatGPT, and MCP 🤖

    ⚡ SPARK

    Multi-account support turns the Mail MCP from a convenience into the way to work a full mail footprint, with work, personal and side-project accounts searched in parallel. It is the clearest statement yet that the assistant, not the Superhuman client, is the surface being invested in.

    Auto Drafts 2.0 ✨

    ⚡ SPARK

    Auto Drafts 2.0 changes the default state of the inbox: every message needing a reply arrives with a draft already written from inbox, calendar and web context. Paired with the MCP work it is the same bet — the user edits and approves rather than composes.

    Multi-day views on iPhone & iPad 📆

    Two- and three-day views and a month grid arrive on iPhone and iPad, both long-requested. Straightforward calendar UX rather than a directional change.

    Calendar on Android 💚

    Calendar lands on Android with event creation and editing, plus Instant Event, which builds an event from a date tapped inside an email. Platform parity — the desktop and iOS clients already had this.

    Superhuman Mail Codex plugin 🤖

    A Codex plugin over the same Mail MCP, shipped with prebuilt skills for morning briefings, batch drafting and scheduling. It broadens which assistant can drive the mailbox and sets up the multi-account expansion that followed a month later.

    Personalize share availability ✨

    Share Availability now takes plain-language instructions such as 24-hour time, an informal tone, or replies in French. Small, but it follows the Auto Drafts pattern: describe the preference once in words and let the product write.
