Grammarly, the trusted AI assistant for communication and productivity, announced its intent to acquire Superhuman, the AI-native email app that helps users respond one to two days faster and save four hours every week on their email communications. This acquisition accelerates Grammarly’s evolution into an AI productivity platform for apps and agents, positioning email as a critical communication surface in the company’s vision of an agentic future.
Addressing the AI promise gap
AI promises to revolutionize work and boost productivity with immediate impact. But technology providers have simply bolted AI onto existing tools, fragmenting an already chaotic tech ecosystem and making professionals’ lives harder. The result is status-quo productivity, poor software investment returns, and companies falling behind competitors who’ve found better solutions.
Grammarly is taking a different approach. The company has built an “AI superhighway” that delivers writing agents to users across more than 500,000 applications and websites. Now, Grammarly is building a productivity platform with more agents that handle more tasks for that superhighway, bringing AI directly to users everywhere they work.

“This is the future we’ve been building toward since day one: AI that works where people work, not where companies want them to work,” said Shishir Mehrotra, CEO of Grammarly. “With Superhuman, we can deliver that future to millions more professionals while giving our existing users another surface for agent collaboration that simply doesn’t exist anywhere else. 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.”
