“Superhuman users have been asking for an integrated notetaker for a long time,” said Superhuman CEO Shishir Mehrotra. “Meeting notes are one of the clearest, most valuable places where AI can help, and it's one of the categories I've spent the most time with. That's when I fell in love with Fathom and the team. We're working together on something I believe will set a new bar for the category.”
Fathom’s platform is designed to record and summarize meetings, while also making past conversations searchable. It includes bot-free recording options, live summaries and integrations that send meeting information into CRMs, AI agents and other workplace software.
Superhuman plans to use that information as another source of context for its agents. In one example, an agent in Superhuman Go could review a team standup transcript, prepare status updates for a project tracker in Superhuman Docs and ask a project manager to approve the changes before they are finalized.
That approach is intended to move meeting information beyond standalone notes and summaries. Instead of requiring users to manually copy decisions or action items into other applications, Superhuman wants agents to use the meeting record as context for subsequent tasks.
“The vast knowledge in your company is spoken, not written; it lives in meetings, calls, and conversations,” said Fathom founder and CEO Richard White. “We built Fathom to capture that knowledge as it happens, with highest quality transcripts and summaries also available bot-free. By joining Superhuman, that context can travel with you to your inbox, your docs, and across every app and website you work, so nothing gets lost in the work that follows.”
Fathom is used by hundreds of thousands of companies and has been recognized in G2’s 2026 Best Software Awards Top 100. It was also named HubSpot’s 2025 Most Used App of the Year.
Superhuman, formerly Grammarly, says its broader platform serves more than 40 million people, 50,000 organizations and 3,000 educational institutions. Its product lineup includes email, calendar, collaborative documents, databases and AI assistance that works across other applications.
The acquisition adds meetings to that pool of workplace context. Superhuman’s thesis is that agents can provide more useful assistance when they understand not only what is written in emails and documents, but also what teams have discussed and agreed to during calls.
Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
