Superhuman AI now helps you stay on top of your email effortlessly. With AI-powered automation, Superhuman can:

  • Auto Label emails automatically so you can prioritize what matters most.
  • Split emails into focused inboxes based on these labels.
  • Auto Archive emails you don’t need to see.
  • Auto Remind you about emails awaiting replies.
  • Auto Draft follow-ups for your review.

Auto Label

Superhuman automatically labels your emails so that you can prioritize what matters most.

Built-in Auto Labels

All Superhuman users get a few Built-in Auto Labels to help you filter out the noise in your inbox.

  • Marketing: Marketing and promotional messages.
  • News: News and newsletter messages.
  • Pitch: Cold pitch and outreach messages.
  • Social: Social network and online community messages.

If you have Important • Other enabled, conversations with these Auto Labels will now land in your Other split. That way you can focus on what matters most.

If you have previously marked individual conversations or specific senders as important using using Cmd+K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows) → Move to Important, these conversations will continue to land in Important. That way you never miss an important message!

Custom Auto Labels (Business & Enterprise Plans only)

Write your own custom AI prompt to Auto Label a specific set of emails.

To create a custom Auto Label, hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Auto Label Settings and click New Auto Label. Then enter an AI prompt for a set of emails, like “Requests to review work” or “Emails about Project Acme.”

Best Practices for Writing AI Prompts

Treat Superhuman AI like your new assistant! These instructions will ensure you create excellent Auto Labels every time:

  • Be explicit – Clearly define the criteria for labeling emails.
  • Use examples – Providing an example email that fits the category can help refine the logic.
  • Consider variations – Think about alternative phrasings that may be clearer.
  • Iterate and refine – Test your prompt and make adjustments based on misclassifications.
  • Leverage boolean logic – Use conditional rules like "if an email contains X but not Y" to improve specificity.

Auto Labels categorizes conversations based on their content, subject, sender, and recipients. Do not include in your prompt information like: whether the conversation is unread, when the conversation was received, whether it has an attachment, frequency of messages from that sender, CRM information on that sender, etc.

By carefully structuring your prompts, using precise language, and considering possible edge cases, you can improve the accuracy of your Auto Labels system and enhance your email management workflow.

Not quite right? Press Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Auto Label Settings, click the ⚙️ next to the Auto Label, and make your changes—these will apply only to new emails. Want to update all emails? Click Delete to start fresh.

🧪 Superhuman AI Beta

During our Beta, you can create up to 10 custom labels and Superhuman will apply the label to 14 days worth of previous emails.

Auto Archive

Superhuman can automatically archive emails based on Auto Labels to keep your inbox clutter-free. Just hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Auto Archive Settings to select labels to skip your inbox.

“Auto archived” will appear below conversation that skip the inbox.

Exceptions to Auto Archive

If any of the following are true, a conversation will not skip the inbox:

  • You have drafted a response in the conversation
  • You have previously responded to the conversation
  • You have set a reminder on the conversation
  • You have previously sent an email to the recipient
  • The sender’s domain is the same as yours (excluding generic domains like gmail.com)

🧪 Superhuman AI Beta

During our Beta, only Built-in Auto Labels can be Auto Archived. In the future, all Auto Labels will be eligible for Auto Archive.

Splits

Thanks to our AI features, Superhuman’s Split Inboxes are more powerful and easier to use than ever. Add Auto Labels to your splits to make your inbox even more focused.

To create a new split, hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Split Inbox Settings and click New Split Inbox. In addition to a search query definition, you can now add Auto Labels to your split definitions.

To customize existing splits, just hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Split Inbox Settings and click the gear icon beside the Split’s name ⚙️

🧪 Superhuman AI Beta

During our Beta, you can only include a single Auto Label in a split definition. More will come soon!

Auto Reminders

Superhuman will automatically remind you about emails that haven’t received a reply.

To customize Auto Reminders, hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Reminder Settings.

Once enabled, all messages that need a reply but have not received one yet will return to your inbox at your chosen Default Reminder time.

Auto Drafts (Business & Enterprise Plans only)

Superhuman can generate AI-powered follow-ups for emails awaiting replies.

When an Auto Reminder is returned, Auto Drafts will generate a follow-up draft in your voice. You can just review and send ⚡

Hit Cmd+K or Ctrl+K → Reminder Settings to enable Auto Drafts.
