Why did you start Superhuman?

It started with a realization I had in an Uber on the way home from LinkedIn in 2014. During that car ride I reached inbox zero, checked my calendar, finished a product requirements document, called my mom, and made a dinner reservation. The technology was giving me back time and making me more present in every dimension of my life. That led me to think about where all of our time goes. It turns out the second biggest time spend for professionals after sleep is email. One billion professionals spend three hours a day reading and writing email, which is three billion hours every single day. And yet before Superhuman, people were using one-size-fits-all solutions not designed for high volume. That was the problem we set out to solve.
