Superhuman (formerly Grammarly) Acquires AI Startup Rows
Superhuman, formerly known as Grammarly, has announced its latest acquisition: Rows, a startup that applies AI to data and spreadsheet management. Once the deal closes, the Rows team will join Superhuman to strengthen its Coda product and expand its capabilities.
- The financial terms of the acquisition have not been disclosed.
- Since its founding in 2017, Rows has raised just over $40 million. However, little is known about the company’s financial performance — it has never shared headline metrics such as «$100 million ARR.»
- In 2024, one investor said the platform had «hundreds of thousands of users.»
- Superhuman has had $1 billion available to finance growth and acquisitions since the summer of 2025, giving it ample resources to pursue deals like this. The Scroll.media editorial team estimates the acquisition price was in the $50–70 million range.
What does Rows do?
Rows built technology that connects spreadsheets directly to business tools and integrates AI into everyday data workflows.
Founded in 2017, the company says it has spent the past nine years creating what it describes as the easiest way to import business data, analyze it, and share results.
During that time, 2.2 million people have used the platform. Users have performed more than 17 billion spreadsheet functions, imported data from business tools over 8.3 billion times, and run more than 800,000 queries through its AI Analyst feature.
Why acquire Rows?
The acquisition gives Superhuman more functionality to offer its users. When the company rebranded from Grammarly to Superhuman, it said the new name reflected its evolution into «an AI productivity platform that integrates applications and AI agents.» The Rows deal reinforces that shift.
The Rows team developed tools that simplify complex data work through live integrations, no-code automation powered by natural language, and built-in AI analytics.
That focus on productivity through connected, accessible data aligns with Superhuman’s vision for Coda — a platform that already brings documents, spreadsheets, and workflows together in a single workspace.
As more software relies on live data, collaboration and analytics can no longer operate in isolation. Rows has been addressing this challenge for years, making sophisticated data tools accessible to teams without deep technical expertise. Integrating that experience into Superhuman is expected to expand Coda’s capabilities for data-driven teams.
The company said the acquisition reinforces its strategy of building Superhuman as an AI-native productivity platform for apps and agents. The Superhuman Suite combines Grammarly, Coda, Mail, and Go into a unified system where intelligent agents operate across products. Within that ecosystem, Coda serves as the central workspace where teams plan, create, and execute initiatives. The addition of Rows is intended to strengthen Coda’s ability to merge collaboration with advanced data analysis.
Following completion of the transaction, the Rows team will join Superhuman from its base in Porto, Portugal.
The standalone Rows product will be shut down and will operate only through May 31 of this year.
