Superhuman Pricing in 2026: What the Email App Actually Costs
Superhuman Mail costs $30 per month on the Starter plan if you pay month to month, or $25 per month billed annually ($300 a year). The step-up Business plan is $40 per month, or roughly $33 per month billed annually ($396 a year), and it unlocks the heavier AI features like Auto Drafts and Ask AI. Enterprise is custom-quoted and you have to contact their sales team.
Those are the numbers as of July 2026, pulled from the official Superhuman plans page. Pricing on tools like this changes often, so confirm the current figure on their site before you commit — the tiers below are the shape of the pricing, not a promise.
The app vs the company: why “Superhuman” is confusing now
Before you compare prices, know that the word “Superhuman” now means two different things, and it trips people up.
Grammarly acquired the Superhuman email client in July 2025. Then, in October 2025, Grammarly renamed itself — the whole parent company is now called Superhuman. So today “Superhuman” is both the fast email app you’re probably here to price and the parent brand that owns Grammarly, Coda, and the email app as separate products under one roof. The email app is officially branded “Superhuman Mail” to keep it distinct. If you want the full acquisition and rebrand story, see Superhuman acquired by Grammarly.
This matters for pricing because there are now two overlapping price lists. There’s standalone Superhuman Mail (the tiers at the top of this post), and there’s the broader Superhuman Suite bundle, which packages Grammarly’s writing assistance, Coda docs, Superhuman Mail, and an AI assistant called Superhuman Go into one subscription. They share plan names like “Business,” which is exactly why quotes get crossed.
Superhuman plans at a glance

Advertised “from $25/month” style figures are the annual-billed rate. If you pay by the month, you pay the higher monthly number.
Starter: $30/month (or $25 annual)
Starter is the entry point into Superhuman Mail. It gives you the actual product people rave about — the keyboard-driven speed, split inbox, snippets, scheduled sends, follow-up reminders, and most of the AI writing and triage features. For a solo user who just wants the fastest inbox they can get, this is the tier.
At $30 a month paid monthly, it’s more than most email clients charge, and there’s no way around that being the core of Superhuman’s positioning: it’s a premium tool sold on time saved, not on being cheap.
Business: $40/month (or ~$33 annual)
Business is aimed at sales teams and heavy email operators. It layers the more automated AI on top of Starter: Auto Drafts (Superhuman pre-writes replies in your voice), Ask AI (query your inbox in natural language), custom auto labels, a recent-opens feed, and CRM integrations with HubSpot and Salesforce. If the AI-that-writes-for-you features are the reason you’re looking at Superhuman, note that the best of them live on this tier, not Starter.
Enterprise: custom pricing
Enterprise adds the things procurement teams ask for — SSO, advanced security and admin controls, and dedicated support — on top of everything in Business. There’s no public number; you contact their team for a quote.
Gotchas worth knowing before you pay
There’s no meaningful free tier for the email app. Superhuman Mail is paid from day one. You typically get a free trial (commonly cited around 30 days, sometimes 7 depending on how you sign up), but once it ends you’re paying. Don’t expect a permanent free plan like Gmail’s. (The separate Superhuman Suite has a $0 tier, but that’s the Grammarly-plus-Coda writing bundle, not the fast email client.)
Annual vs monthly is a real gap. The “$25/month” you see advertised is the annual-billed Starter rate — you’re actually paying $300 up front for the year. Month-to-month is $30. Same story on Business ($33 annual vs $40 monthly). Budget for the monthly figure unless you’re ready to pay a year in advance.
The bundle does not automatically come with the email app. Because “Superhuman” is now the parent brand, some pages push the Superhuman Suite (Grammarly writing, Coda docs, Superhuman Go, and Mail) with its own Free / Pro ($15/mo, $12 annual) / Business ($40/mo, $33 annual) tiers. Standalone Superhuman Mail Starter does not include Grammarly Pro or Coda — those come through the Suite plans. If a “Business” quote looks like it covers everything, check whether it’s Suite Business or Mail Business.
Is Superhuman worth $25+/month?
Superhuman is priced as a premium product and defends it on a single claim: the keyboard-first workflow and AI shortcuts save you enough time to justify the cost. If you live in your inbox all day, process hundreds of messages, and the difference between a 90-second and a 30-second triage compounds across your week, the math can work — that’s the audience it’s built for.
If you send a normal volume of email, $30 a month for a faster client is a hard sell next to Gmail or Outlook, which are free or already paid for. It’s worth reading a direct feature-by-feature take before deciding: see Superhuman vs Gmail for whether the speed is worth leaving Gmail, and Superhuman vs SaneBox if what you actually want is triage rather than a whole new client.
Cheaper and different alternatives
If the price is the sticking point, there’s a full rundown in Superhuman alternatives, which covers faster-and-cheaper clients, AI-native inboxes, and triage-only add-ons. For a broader look at where AI email is heading, the best AI email assistants compares the category.
One option worth flagging is a different kind of tool entirely. Superhuman makes you faster at email; an AI executive assistant does the email for you. Carly is an AI executive assistant that manages your inbox and calendar — it drafts and triages messages, and schedules meetings over email on your behalf — rather than being a faster client you still have to drive by hand. Carly starts at $35/month. If your real goal is to stop touching most email rather than to touch it faster, that’s a fundamentally different trade than paying for a quicker inbox.
FAQ
Is there a free Superhuman plan? Not for the email app. Superhuman Mail is paid, with a free trial (often around 30 days) that ends. The separate Superhuman Suite has a $0 tier, but that’s the Grammarly writing and Coda docs bundle, not the fast email client.
How much is Superhuman per month? Superhuman Mail Starter is $30 per month billed monthly, or $25 per month if you pay annually ($300 a year). Business is $40 per month, or about $33 per month billed annually ($396 a year).
Does Superhuman pricing include Grammarly or Coda? Standalone Superhuman Mail does not. Grammarly and Coda come through the Superhuman Suite plans, which are priced separately from the Mail-only tiers, even though both use plan names like “Business.”
Is Superhuman worth the money? For high-volume email users who want maximum speed and will use the AI drafting features, the time saved can justify it. For average email volume, a free client like Gmail or Outlook covers most of the same ground.

See what people say
"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
