What is an AI email assistant?
An AI email assistant is software that uses artificial intelligence to help you with everyday email tasks like identifying what needs your attention, clearing out low-priority email, and preparing replies before you even open your inbox.
The best ones go further than writing. Email Assistant by Superhuman Mail understands the context of your inbox, learns how you communicate, and works inside Gmail and Outlook to label, declutter, draft, and remind automatically.
Email Assistant stays on top of your inbox, so you don’t have to

Know what needs your attention
Emails are labeled the moment they arrive, so you can see what’s important and what’s not. Start with what needs a response and leave the rest for later.
Get draft replies in your voice
Every message that needs a reply comes with a draft written in your voice. Each draft can use your inbox, calendar, and the web to write replies that are ready to send.


Follow up on time, every time
If your email needs a response, you’re automatically reminded to follow up—with a draft already written and ready to send. You’ll never drop the ball again.
Keep noise out of your inbox
Clutter like marketing emails and sales pitches skip your inbox, so important conversations never get buried. Focus on what matters most each time you open your inbox.

AI email assistance that works across your entire inbox
Most AI assistants help when you ask. Email Assistant by Superhuman Mail helps before, during, and after every conversation, so email gets done before it becomes work.
