Who owns Superlist?
Superlist is private and doesn’t publish its cap table. Its investors are Cherry Ventures, Visionaries Club and Freigeist, which backed it early (deutsche-startups.de), and EQT Ventures, which led its 2022 seed round (Private Equity Wire). Co-founder Christian Reber put about €1.5 million of his own money into it (Business Insider). The commercial register shows new shares issued in June 2025, which the company hasn’t announced (North Data).
What is Superlist’s revenue?
Superlist doesn’t disclose revenue, users or subscribers. When it launched version 1.0 in February 2024, Reber said his goal was €10 million in annual recurring revenue (Business Insider); that is a target, not a result. The app has more than 100,000 downloads on Google Play (Google Play). It earns money from subscriptions: a free plan, Basic at $59 a year and Super, with unlimited AI meeting notes, at $249 a year (Superlist).
Superlist ARR (annual recurring revenue)
Superlist hasn’t published ARR. The only figure on record is Reber’s €10 million goal from February 2024 (Business Insider).
Superlist MRR (monthly recurring revenue)
Superlist doesn’t publish MRR, and with no ARR figure there is nothing to divide; we don’t estimate one.
How much has Superlist raised? Funding and valuation
€13.5 million in total, by the company’s count in April 2022 (Private Equity Wire), repeated by TechCrunch in 2024 (TechCrunch). The main round was a €10 million seed led by EQT Ventures; deutsche-startups.de reported a post-money valuation of about €60 million (deutsche-startups.de). Reber said in 2024 that he would only consider more venture money once Superlist breaks even (Business Insider).

What does Superlist make? Products
Superlist is a to-do list, notes and team task app for Mac, iPhone and iPad, Android and the web. Reber pitched it as a team-first successor to Wunderlist (TechCrunch), and Superlist says it is “built by the same team” (Superlist). Since 2025 it has added AI: meeting notes that transcribe calls and turn them into tasks (Superlist), and a connection to Claude and other AI assistants (Superlist).

Notion was valued at $10 billion in 2021 (Wikipedia), and Things has won two Apple Design Awards (Wikipedia). Microsoft To Do replaced Wunderlist itself (Wikipedia).
Who is the CEO of Superlist?
Niklas Jansen, a co-founder of Blinkist (Superlist). He became managing director on February 21, 2023, replacing co-founders Steffen Kiedel, the first CEO, and Ben Kubota (North Data).
