Superhuman MailHow do you triage your inbox?
To triage your inbox, set a Loop and tell Maito how you want email sorted. It reads new messages, sorts them into reply now, read later and archive, and writes drafts for easy replies. You see a short summary with the few messages that need you and a note on anything odd.
How it's done today
Important emails get buried.
What Maito does
- Read new email
- Sort by what it needs from you
- Draft replies for the easy ones
Example
Loop run: Weekdays 1:00 PM · Inbox triage
46 new emails since 8:00 AM. Reply now (4, drafts ready) • Hannah at Hooli: can we move Thursday's demo to Friday? Yes, you're free. • Omar: approve the $3,400 annual domain renewal. • Ravi at Acme: asks for the security questionnaire. • Claire: needs your signature by 5 PM. Read later (12): 3 investor newsletters, 9 product updates. Archived (30): receipts, calendar replies, alerts. Check this one: an email from Vandelay Imports sits in Read later with the subject "Quick question". The body asks you to confirm the Oct 23 contract deadline. I moved it up. Drafts are not sent.
@Maito the Vandelay one is real. Make the draft say I'll confirm by Wednesday.
Updated. The draft now says you'll confirm by Wednesday, Oct 21. It's waiting in your drafts for you to send.

What it won't do
It can misjudge importance for senders it hasn't seen before. Check the archived list now and then, and it never sends mail without your approval.
Questions
No. It writes drafts and waits for you to send them or approve.
Gmail, Microsoft 365 or Superhuman Mail, connected through MCP.
Only if you allow it. Tell it what to archive, such as receipts and calendar replies, and it follows that rule.
