Inline intelligence: Your cursor, made smarter

Select any text in your inbox, a doc, or an article, and Superhuman Go suggests what can move the work forward based on the surrounding context.

Inline intelligence

Help arrives at your cursor

Select text anywhere you read or write and the menu comes to you.

Informed by the full picture

Every suggestion fits the thread, the document, or the page your selection sits in.

Changes only what you select

Revisions touch the text you selected and leave the tone and structure around it intact.

Skip the round-trip

Getting help usually means leaving your work: Copy the text, explain what it's part of, paste the answer back, then make it fit again. Inline intelligence acts on the text in front of you, so the answer arrives already shaped by what surrounds it.

Informed by the full picture

Inline intelligence already has the context of your window, so the responses are relevant to doc, article or email you're working on.

Edits that still sound like you

Rewrites refine exactly what you pointed at, in the voice the rest of your writing already established.

Works across email, docs, and the web

Inline intelligence works in Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Google Docs, Notion, and the web. It appears only when you select something, and you can snooze it or switch it off at any time.

Frequently asked questions

Inline intelligence is a context-aware AI layer that lives at your cursor inside Superhuman Go. Select text in a document, an email, or a web page and it suggests the most relevant actions for what you selected, using the thread, document, or page around it as context.

Chat tools only know what you paste into them. You go to them, paste your text, explain the surrounding context, and get back a full response that you then reconcile with what you had. Inline intelligence works inside the surface you're already in, sees what surrounds your selection, and changes only what you asked it to.

Rephrase, Shorten, Proofread, Explain, Translate, Scan for AI, and Ask Go. Additional actions surface based on what you selected and where, so the most relevant options are always available.
