Is Mejl a good fit for you?

An alternative to Superhuman for people who want to focus on reading Gmail.
Mejl is a good fit if…
You use Gmail and want less clutter, clear unread counts, and room to read one group of mail at your own pace.
Mejl is not the right fit if…
You use Outlook or IMAP, or you want one product family for email, collaborative documents, and agents across your work tools.

Start with the mail you already have

Keep your Gmail account and start with the views that matter to you.
01
Sign in with Google. Use the Gmail account you already open in Superhuman; your mail is already there.
02
Recreate the views you want to read. Connect each one to a Gmail label, then use free Gmail filter rules to sort matching mail.
03
Try the reading workflow. If you later want to sort new mail by describing what belongs in a view, add Mejl Plus. It is optional.

Focused views, free for as long as you want.

The free plan includes focused views and Gmail filter rules, with no trial or time limit. Mejl Plus is optional and adds description-based AI sorting, writing tools, and reply suggestions on web. No credit card is required to start.

Questions before switching

Your Gmail account, existing mail, and what is included on Free.
Do I need Superhuman if I mainly want Split Inbox or custom inboxes?
Mejl Free includes focused views and Gmail filter rules into views. Each view has its own unread count. Plus is optional if you want description-based AI sorting. Explore focused Gmail views for the broader custom-inbox comparison.

Does Mejl have AI labeling like Superhuman Auto Labels?
Yes. Mejl Plus automatic sorting uses AI to classify new mail from your view descriptions and apply Gmail labels. Superhuman calls its feature Auto Labels. They serve a similar purpose, but their rules and available actions differ. Exact Gmail filter rules are included on Mejl Free.
Is Mejl a Superhuman alternative?
Yes, if you use Gmail and want a focused place to read. Mejl gives you views with clear unread counts, so you can work through one kind of mail at a time. It does not replace the broader Superhuman suite of Docs, Go, and agents.
Do I have to leave Gmail?
No. Mejl is a client for your existing Gmail account. Your messages and labels stay in Gmail, and you can still open Gmail whenever you want.
Do I need to import my mail from Superhuman?
No. Sign in with the same Google account and Mejl opens the mail already in Gmail. Recreate the focused views you want in Mejl; there is no automatic import of your Superhuman Split Inbox setup.
Does Mejl work with Outlook or IMAP?
No. Mejl works with Gmail only for now. If you use Superhuman with Outlook, Mejl is not a replacement for that account.
Is Mejl really free?
Yes. The free plan includes focused views and Gmail filter rules, with no trial or time limit. Mejl Plus is optional and adds description-based AI sorting, writing tools, and reply suggestions on web. No credit card is required to start.
