Why choose Spike over Superhuman

Speed up decisions, not just replies

Superhuman might get you to Inbox Zero in 30 seconds, but your speed gains vanish the moment you need collaboration. Spike's conversational design keeps your team in the loop automatically.

Manage conversations, not threads

Superhuman speeds up processing traditional email threads. But threads are still threads, context-heavy, and hard to follow. Spike eliminates threads with chat-style conversations that flow naturally.

Scale your productivity

Superhuman's pricing means only executives get the speed advantage while teams struggle with basic email. Spike's approach democratizes conversational email for everyone.

Think beyond keyboard shortcuts

Superhuman trains you to manually process emails faster with shortcuts and workflows. Spike's AI automatically surfaces what matters most and summarizes long conversations for instant context.

Email that puts people first

I had something like 90K unread emails before switching to @SpikeNowHQ. I’m down to just 2K emails. Inbox 0, here I come!

You have questions, we have answers

  • For individual triage, Superhuman is incredibly fast. For team decisions, project completion, and business momentum, Spike is infinitely faster because it eliminates context switching and information silos. True speed isn’t just about processing emails—it’s about turning communication into action.

  • Spike shares the same design ethos of a clean, clutter-free workspace. We just apply it to your entire workflow, not just your inbox. You get the same focus and clarity, but extended across all your team communication and collaboration.

  • Because speed without context creates new bottlenecks. You might process your inbox in record time, but then spend even longer bringing your team up to speed. Spike eliminates that handoff entirely—your individual speed becomes team momentum through conversational design that keeps everyone aligned automatically.

  • Absolutely. Spike works with any email provider—Gmail, Outlook, custom domains. You keep your address while upgrading your communication philosophy from individual optimization to team momentum.
