About Superhuman
Superhuman pushes calendar onto mobile and opens the inbox to AI agents via MCP.
Superhuman is a speed-focused email client now building out two fronts at once: calendar features across mobile (Android calendar, multi-day iOS views, share-availability) and an agentic layer that lets external AI tools drive the inbox through MCP and a Codex plugin. The release cadence is high and split between mobile parity and AI access.
