A faster inbox is still an inbox you have to sit in

Superhuman is the best keyboard-first email client there is. Split-second navigation, snippets, Instant Intro, read statuses, a command palette that means your hands never leave the home row. If your day is processing a high-volume inbox by hand, it shaves real minutes off every hour. The catch is in the premise: it makes you faster at the work. The work is still yours. You read every thread, you write every reply, you remember every follow-up.

Fasrad sits on the other side of that line. It's a hosted agent with its own inbox connected to your Google account. It reads the threads, sorts the ones that need a human from the ones that don't, drafts replies that quote what the other person actually said, and — when you point it at a Sheet — sends staggered personalized outreach and triages the replies as they land. You're not flying through messages faster. You're reading a short summary of what already got handled.

Where the line falls:

If you live in your inbox and want to be ruthlessly fast in it, buy Superhuman — it's worth the money. If you want the inbox handled so you mostly don't open it, that's Fasrad. Plenty of people end up wanting both: Superhuman for the threads only you can answer, Fasrad for the ones it can clear on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Is Fasrad a faster email client like Superhuman?

No, and it's the wrong question. Superhuman is a desktop and mobile client built to make a human process the inbox faster — keyboard shortcuts, split panes, read receipts. Fasrad has no client UI to fly through. It's an agent that reads, triages, drafts, and sends on your behalf, so the goal is opening the inbox less, not navigating it quicker.

What does Superhuman still do better?

Hands-on speed and polish. If you want to personally clear 200 emails before lunch, Superhuman's keyboard-driven client, snippets, send-later, and read statuses are better than anything Fasrad offers — Fasrad has no comparable desktop app or shortcut layer. It also has a years-refined mobile experience. For a human power-user who wants to do the email themselves, faster, Superhuman is the right tool. Many people run both.

Will Fasrad send email without me approving it?

Only within the rules you set. By default it drafts and you approve. You can let it auto-send for defined cases — confirmations, routine replies, paced outreach from a Sheet — and keep everything else as a draft for review. You decide where the line sits per category.

Does it read the whole thread or just the last message?

The thread. Replies quote and answer what was actually said earlier, and meeting-prep briefings pull from past exchanges with that person — which is the part a faster inbox UI can't do for you, because it still needs you to read it.

Where does Fasrad actually run?

It's hosted — nothing to install or self-host. You use it at fasrad.com/chat, as a private Telegram bot, over email itself, or as a public embed chatbot. It connects to your Google inbox, calendar, and Drive, and works in the background on triggers and schedules even when no window is open.

How much does it cost?

$49/month or $490/year — cancel anytime. It's in public beta, setup takes about four minutes, and you connect one Google account to get an agent with its own inbox, calendar, and Drive.
