Two different approaches
offdutyoffduty holds your Gmail and delivers it in batches at times you choose. You see exactly how many emails are waiting. If something urgent comes up, you can temporarily lift the hold until a set time. There are no keyboard shortcuts to memorise, no new interface to learn, and no onboarding call required.
Superhuman
Superhuman is a replacement email client focused on speed, keyboard shortcuts, fast search, and AI drafting. It is built around processing a high volume of email as quickly as possible.
Feature comparison
Faster at email doesn't mean less of it
Processing your inbox at speed still means checking it constantly. offduty removes that compulsion entirely, your inbox stays quiet until your scheduled delivery time. You can't compulsively check what hasn't arrived yet. That's a structural change, not a productivity hack.
$4.99 vs $30, and no onboarding call
Superhuman costs $30 per month and requires setting up before you can start. offduty is $4.99 per month, connects to your existing Gmail in minutes, and comes with a 30-day free trial that requires no credit card. There is nothing to install, no learning curve, and no waiting.
Keep your Gmail exactly as it is
Superhuman replaces your Gmail interface entirely. offduty sits alongside it, your Gmail remains unchanged, with all your existing filters, labels, and setup intact. The only thing that changes is when new email arrives.
