Vithos vs Superhuman
The same love of the keyboard. Half the price, and search that answers as you type.
Superhuman proved that people will pay for fast, keyboard-driven email, and it deserves real credit for that. Vithos starts from the same conviction and takes it further in the two places that matter most: raw speed, and what your tools are allowed to do with your inbox.
Vithos is built around a search engine that indexes your mail locally and answers before you finish typing, and every interaction is held to a sub-50ms bar. And where Superhuman is a closed box, Vithos ships a public API and an MCP server from day one, so your scripts and agents can work your inbox with scoped, revocable permissions.
Side by side
Why people switch
Half the price, none of the lock-in
Pro is $14.99 a month against Superhuman's $30. If you leave, your mail was in Gmail the whole time.
Speed you can feel
No round-trip can beat a local index. Vithos answers searches and opens threads in the time it takes to paint a frame, on a plane or in a tunnel, because the answer is already there.
Built for the agent era
Superhuman gives you its AI. Vithos gives your AI an interface: a documented API and MCP server with scoped, revocable keys, so whatever assistant you trust can search, draft, and file with your permission.
If you loved what Superhuman taught email, Vithos is that philosophy, faster and open.
