Grammarly, long recognized as the go-to writing assistant for millions, just made a bold move that signals its next chapter: the acquisition of Superhuman, a premium AI-powered email client. This isn’t just another tech acquisition—it’s a strategic leap that could reshape how professionals manage communication and productivity in the age of AI.
“Email isn’t just another app; it’s where professionals spend significant portions of their day, and it’s the perfect staging ground for orchestrating multiple AI agents simultaneously.”
— Shishir Mehrotra, CEO of Grammarly
Superhuman has built a reputation as the fastest and most efficient email experience on the market. Its AI features help users draft, reply, and follow up on emails at lightning speed—Superhuman claims users send and respond to 72% more emails per hour, with AI-generated emails up fivefold in the last year. For busy professionals, that’s a game-changer.
The company, founded by Rahul Vohra and backed by top-tier investors, was last valued at $825 million and generates about $35 million in annual revenue. It’s not just a tool; it’s a cult favorite among productivity enthusiasts.
Grammarly’s ambitions have outgrown its grammar-checking roots. With over 40 million daily users and fresh off a $1 billion funding round, the company is building a full-fledged AI productivity suite. The Superhuman deal is a cornerstone of this strategy, giving Grammarly a powerful entry point into the most-used business app: email.
This acquisition follows Grammarly’s purchase of Coda, another productivity platform, signaling a clear intent to own the “AI workplace” stack. The company is even considering a rebrand to reflect its broader mission.
The integration of Superhuman’s technology means Grammarly can now develop AI agents that don’t just correct your writing—they can manage your inbox, coordinate follow-ups, and facilitate team discussions, all within your daily workflow. Imagine AI that not only polishes your emails but also helps you prioritize, schedule, and collaborate across platforms.
Superhuman’s team, including CEO Rahul Vohra and more than 100 employees, will join Grammarly to accelerate this vision. Vohra says the acquisition gives Superhuman “significantly greater resources” to invest in new AI tools, including calendar and task management features.
The race to own the AI productivity space is heating up. Giants like Google and Microsoft are rapidly adding AI features to their email and office suites. By acquiring Superhuman, Grammarly positions itself as a nimble innovator, ready to compete with the best.
For users, this means the line between writing, communication, and productivity tools is blurring. Soon, your AI assistant may not just correct your grammar—it could help you run your entire workday.
