Coda has been renamed Superhuman Docs, with Superhuman rolling out a rebuilt AI assistant, broader AI tool connections and new data features for teams working across documents, workflows and shared databases.

Superhuman said all existing Coda docs automatically become Superhuman Docs, with the same features, current pricing and Maker Billing remaining in place.

The launch gives Coda a new place inside the wider Superhuman suite, which includes Go, Mail, Calendar, Docs, Grammarly and other products. For education, research and workforce teams already using documents as operating systems, the shift points to a more AI-native version of the shared workspace rather than a standalone chatbot bolted onto a page.

Superhuman Docs includes Docs AI, a redesigned assistant that works inside documents with access to team context, including data, briefs, roadmaps and connected tools. Users can ask Docs AI to summarize a sprint, create a project tracker, draft a decision record from meeting notes or build a request intake workflow.

Shishir Mehrotra, Chief Executive Officer of Superhuman, said in a LinkedIn post: “Today we’re introducing Superhuman Docs, the evolution of Coda into the best place for teams and AI to work together.”

Coda moves into Superhuman suite

Coda was founded in 2014 by Mehrotra and Alex DeNeui to rethink the modern document as a workspace where teams could combine writing, tables, formulas, automations, buttons, forms and integrations.

Superhuman said the rename is intended to bring Coda closer to the wider product suite. The company described the update as “Coda 5.0” for existing users, rather than a break with the original platform.

Existing Coda documents will move over automatically. Superhuman said the launch will be available in waves over 24 hours, with a refreshed visual identity, new icons, new illustrations and a custom typeface called Super Sans.

Mehrotra said: “With Superhuman Docs, AI is no longer a solo experience. Docs AI works with you the way a teammate would, with full context of everything your team has built: your data, your briefs, your roadmaps, your connected tools.”

Docs AI works inside team documents

Superhuman said Docs AI has been rebuilt from the ground up and sits inside the document surface itself, rather than requiring users to move between a separate AI chat and a shared workspace.

The assistant can work across writing, data and synthesis tasks inside the same document. Superhuman said users with early access have used Docs AI to summarize sprints, compare pricing against competitors, create analysis pages, draft decision records and help new users understand existing documents.

The launch also includes updates to AI columns and AI blocks. Superhuman said AI columns are now faster, more consistent and no longer require @ references, while AI blocks can summarize pages or tables, surface action items and find themes across large sets of content.

The company is also launching Docs MCP for everyone, following an earlier beta under the Coda MCP name. The feature connects Superhuman Docs with AI tools including Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, so users can ask questions, request updates and build docs from their preferred AI tool while keeping the document as the shared source of truth.

Superhuman said the MCP became the fastest-growing feature it has launched while in beta, with more than 40 improvements and feature enhancements shipped over eight weeks.

AI Views and Databases enter closed beta

Superhuman is also introducing AI Views in closed beta, allowing users to create custom interfaces on top of live document data by describing what they need.

The company said early internal examples included a live seating chart built from a sales dinner registration list, a cost dashboard with sliders and heatmaps to model LLM spending, and a weekly standup tracker with leaderboard features.

AI Views are designed to remain connected to the underlying data. Superhuman said changes made in an AI View flow through to other views in the document.

Superhuman Databases is also entering closed beta. The product is designed to handle up to 1 million rows, with one database able to connect to multiple docs. Superhuman said this allows organization-wide project tracking or product roadmaps to live in one place while flowing into the documents that need them.

The new Superhuman Docs experience starts rolling out to users now. AI Views and Superhuman Databases are both available through closed beta sign-ups, while Docs MCP is available to all users as part of the launch.
