Chrome extension that adds command bar and advanced keyboard shortcuts to Gmail. Snooze with natural language, navigate to folders, one click unsubscribe, select multiple emails - and everything else that is needed to make you superhuman in Gmail.
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 💪

Your product is incredibly impactful for someone like me who is always looking for efficient shortcuts to tackle detailed work. I absolutely love it—I installed it on my Google Chrome today and have been using it ever since. Great work!
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 :)
Congratulations on the launch! This is a must-have for anyone using Gmail, delivering exactly what it promises at amazing cost. Great work, @phalgun_g and wishing you all the best.
Dope @phalgun_g ! This is a great example of scratching your own itch and turning it into something valuable for others. The fact that high-profile users are signing up proves there's demand.
And for scaling, tapping into communities where Superhuman users hang out (especially Twitter, productivity forums in reddit) could work well. Excited to see where you take this!
Sending you lots of wins :)
This looks like an absolute game-changer for Gmail productivity! 🚀 A command bar and advanced keyboard shortcuts are exactly what’s needed to streamline email management. Natural language snoozing, quick navigation, and one-click unsubscribe sound like a dream for efficiency.
Huge congrats on the launch—excited to see how this evolves! 🎉🔥
