Hey PH. This could be a controversial post. But hear me out - I started using Superhuman in 2018, and loved it. I paid $30/mo for over 2 years and then found myself on a career break and couldn't afford (or need) the app anymore. When I got back to work, I missed Superhuman so much and no other email app came close (truly a fantastic product!). I listed down the top features I badly wanted and just built it over a few weekends with a friend. The first version worked great. Turned out, other people also wanted it. And loved it. Enough that they started paying it. I didn't think this app deserved a PH launch as it solved a niche use case. But when I have the CEO of a top 10 website in the world signing up, I realised it wasn't as small. Here is a quick product video showing you how to use the extension in your own Gmail account
. The app is free to install and there is a 2 week trial included. I'm a single person team, using AI to build both product and marketing. I am now looking to grow the user base of Simplehuman. If you have any ideas on how to scale a "alternative to" product like this, I'm open to hearing you on how you'd solve it. For Producthunt users, the app has $30 off on lifetime plans until the end of the week. Hope you like it.

I’ve been missing using Superhuman but kept resisting the $30 price tag. Finally, I think it’s time to switch to Simplehuman ❤️ It’s been a long time coming. Excited to see it grow 💪

I've been using Simplehuman for ~6 weeks now. 1. I am at 0-inbox a lot more often than before. Given I receive several time sensitive emails, managing my inbox is critical and that has been simpler in the last 6 weeks 2. I really like how intuitive the keyboard shortcuts are. I see myself typing out "gi" in other apps too :P (Did it a couple of times after responding to a LinkedIn DM) 3. Phalgun is super responsive. I have asked him for at least 4 shortcuts and they were all implemented thoughtfully. If you deal with a lot of emails, Simplehuman is a no brainer :)
