Six months of work. Here’s what shipped.
AI & automation
Manual document review is slow. These changes reduce how much of it you have to do.
- AI workflow generation — Describe what you need in plain English. Superdocu generates the steps, document requests, forms, and checklists. You review and publish. It’s part of the broader push toward AI document collection that reduces manual setup time.
- Automatic document validation — Documents are checked on upload. Superdocu approves, rejects, or flags them based on rules you set. OCR runs locally; your data stays on your infrastructure.
- French government validators — KBIS, URSSAF, and transport license documents are verified against official registries automatically.
- “Not applicable” flagging — Contacts can mark a document request as not applicable and give a reason. You decide whether to accept it.
Contact experience
The client portal your contacts use to upload documents has been redesigned.
- Visual stepper — Contacts see where they are in the process and what’s left.
- Mobile-first design — The portal works properly on phones now, including uploads and forms.
- iOS PWA — iPhone users can install the portal to their home screen.
- Two-way document sharing — You can share files with contacts through the portal (contracts, templates, policy docs). They see what’s been sent and when.
- Email/password login — Contacts can create a password if they don’t want to use magic links every time.
- Custom navigation links — Add your own links to the contact dashboard.
Contact management
- Revamped contacts index — Filter and sort contacts, run batch actions, find who you’re looking for without scrolling a flat list.
- SIRET/SIREN auto-fill — Enter a SIRET number and Superdocu fills in the company name, address, and legal info.
- “Last active” tracking — See when each contact last logged in. Replaces the less useful “last updated” timestamp.
Workflows and files
- ZIP downloads — Download all documents for a contact as a ZIP, organized by workflow and step.
- ZIP caching — ZIPs are cached after the first generation. Repeat downloads don’t reprocess.
- Rename live workflows — Change a workflow’s name after it’s been assigned. No need to archive and recreate.
- Document expiration reminders — Contacts get automatic reminders before documents expire.
Billing and plans
- Lite Plan at $35/month — New entry tier for smaller teams.
- Annual billing — Pay yearly, get two months free.
- 48-hour grace period — If a payment fails, your account stays active for 48 hours.
Integrations and infrastructure
- Zapier: new triggers — Two new events: document rejected (includes the reason) and download URL generated.
- Custom SMTP resilience — Better handling when your SMTP server is slow or temporarily down.
- Role-based access control — Set what each team member can see and do. Restrict visibility to assigned contacts, lock billing, or limit specific features.
Frequently asked questions
What’s new in the Superdocu April 2026 update?
The April 2026 update includes AI-powered workflow generation, automatic document validation with local OCR, a redesigned contact portal with mobile-first design and iOS PWA support, a new Lite Plan at $35/month, new Zapier triggers, and role-based access control for teams.
How does automatic document validation work in Superdocu?
When a contact uploads a document, Superdocu runs OCR locally and checks it against your validation rules. It can automatically approve, reject, or flag the document for manual review. For French businesses, KBIS, URSSAF, and transport licenses are also verified against official government registries in real time.
What is the new Lite Plan?
The Lite Plan is a new entry-tier option at $35/month for smaller teams that need Superdocu’s core document collection and workflow features without the full Pro plan price.
Can contacts use Superdocu on mobile?
Yes. The contact portal is redesigned mobile-first. All features — uploads, forms, and status tracking — work on phones. iPhone users can also install the portal as a PWA from their home screen.
