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.

Superhuman vs Krisp: editorial side-by-side

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.

Krisp
COMMS
5.0

Krisp moves call transcripts and live captions to cloud transcription in KrispCX 2.84.4.

◆ Current state

Krisp sells a Call Center AI suite to BPOs and contact centers: Accent Conversion, Voice Translation, QA scoring, deepfake and fraud detection. KrispCX 2.84.4 adds cloud transcription in beta for more accurate transcripts and Live Captions, plus in-call hints when the Krisp microphone is in use; the source note is truncated. October brought Conference mode for Voice Translation and a Fraud Detection beta.

◆ Where it's heading

Releases arrive on a two-week cadence and keep stacking agent-assist features on the live call, from translation to fraud signals to captions. The September move to free-to-try has been followed by incremental depth rather than new product lines.

◆ Prediction

Expect more of the live-call layer to move to cloud processing, with QA scoring and translation likely reusing the new transcription. The truncated notes leave the scope of the cloud beta unclear.
