Data Transfer Guide
GhostAI stores primarily templates and user preferences rather than email content. Export templates through GhostAI's web interface—typically found in Settings > Templates. Save these as text files. For configuration data, take screenshots of your tone settings and integration setups. Superhuman doesn't directly import GhostAI data, so you'll manually recreate templates in Superhuman's AI settings. During Superhuman setup, connect your email accounts directly—your emails remain in your email provider (Gmail, Outlook). The migration focuses on recreating workflow patterns rather than transferring actual email data. Consider this an opportunity to refine and optimize your templates during recreation.
