Superhuman has acquired AI detection startup GPTZero. The deal adds GPTZero's technology to Superhuman's existing AI detector within Grammarly and its Authorship product. GPTZero cofounders Edward Tian and Alex Cui will join Superhuman to lead a team focused on authenticity.
The startup's 30 employees will also move to the company. GPTZero will soon be accessible within Superhuman Go while continuing to operate independently. GPTZero generates $30 million in annual recurring revenue and has 19 million registered users.
It was founded three years ago by Tian, then a senior at Princeton, and Cui. The company is valued at over $88 million and backed by Uncork Capital, Neo, Footwork, and Jack Altman. Superhuman was formerly known as Grammarly and changed its name after acquiring the email app Superhuman.
The company now offers productivity tools that include its Grammarly AI detector. Education accounts for roughly a third of the more than $700 million in annual revenue generated by Grammarly, with professional users accounting for the remainder. Superhuman has 40 million daily users.
GPTZero marks Superhuman's fourth major acquisition after Coda, the email app Superhuman, and the AI spreadsheet tool Rows. "When you're buying a business like this, the people come first," Superhuman CEO Shishir Mehrotra said. "GPTZero started with the mission of preserving what's human," Tian said.
