Christian Reber at a glance

Christian Reber’s email address: how to reach him

Reber hasn’t published a personal email address: not on X, LinkedIn, GitHub or his fund’s website (checked November 8, 2026). His GitHub profile lists no email (GitHub). His fund, Interface Capital, publishes a general inbox, hello@interfacecap.com (Interface). For Superlist, the general inbox is hello@superlist.com (Superlist). Superlist staff use just their first name: {first}@superlist.com, such as maya@superlist.com for a fictional Maya Chen. Every staff address in Superlist’s own code repositories follows it.

X is his most active public channel. Superlist.com’s DMARC policy is quarantine, so mail that fakes a superlist.com sender should land in spam (DNS checked November 8, 2026).

Career timeline

From Wunderlist to Superlist

Reber went looking for co-founders for a to-do app in 2009, and Wunderlist launched in November 2010; Microsoft bought its maker, 6Wunderkinder, in June 2015 for a reported $100–200 million (Wikipedia). He held about 20% of the company at the sale (OMR). He stayed at Microsoft until September 2017 (WinBuzzer) and later called the sale “a bizarre experience”: “I felt like I lost a child in a way” (CNBC).

In September 2019, as Microsoft planned to shut Wunderlist down, he asked publicly to buy it back: “please let me buy it back” (Redmond Channel Partner). Microsoft shut Wunderlist down in May 2020 (Wikipedia); the same week Reber announced Superlist, as a co-founder who “won’t be running the company” (9to5Mac). Superlist says it is “built by the same team” as Wunderlist (Superlist).

He ran Pitch, the presentation app he co-founded in 2018, until January 2024, when he stepped down and kept a board seat (TechCrunch). He later spoke about burnout and called startup hustle culture “kompletter Nonsens” (deutsche-startups.de). Since 2022 he has run Interface Capital with Niklas Jansen (Startbase), and he was a seed investor in Notion (TechCrunch).

Who runs Superlist: CEO Niklas Jansen

Superlist’s CEO is Niklas Jansen, a co-founder of Blinkist, who lives in Berlin (Superlist). He has been managing director of Superlist Software GmbH since February 21, 2023, replacing co-founders Steffen Kiedel and Ben Kubota (North Data). Kiedel was CEO when Superlist raised its 2022 seed round (ArcticStartup). Jansen and Reber also run Interface Capital together (Interface).

In his own words

“If someone built the successor of Evernote, why is no one building the successor of Wunderlist, like a team-first app?”

— Christian Reber, February 16, 2024 (TechCrunch)

“I really believe that Superlist can be a decacorn, if we just focus on executing it very, very carefully.”

— Christian Reber, February 16, 2024 (TechCrunch)

“When we sold to Microsoft, Microsoft decided to rework the product into the Microsoft stack, but honestly, the product wasn’t for me.”

— Christian Reber, February 16, 2024 (TechCrunch)

“You either get like very cluttered software that is basically optimized for project managers, or you get like these very personal to-do apps that make it impossible to collaborate.”

— Christian Reber, March 10, 2022 (CNBC)

“Europa muss unabhängig, verteidigbar und innovativ werden, sonst werden wir Entwicklungskontinent.” (Europe must become independent, defensible and innovative, or we will become a developing continent.)
