I would use a macro. For example:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp 
  (defun my-macro-superscript (arg)
     (cond ((eq org-export-current-backend 'latex)
           (format "@@latex:\\textsuperscript{%s}@@" arg))
          ((eq org-export-current-backend 'odt)
           (format "@@odt:<text:span 
text:style-name=\"OrgSuperscript\">%s</text:span>@@" arg))))

  (setq org-export-global-macros
        '(("sup" . "(eval (my-macro-superscript $1))")))
#+end_src

{{{sup(4)}}}

Best regards,
