IWhat It Does
A personal assistant AI agent from San Francisco startup Instinct (legal entity Spear Street Technology, Inc.). Instead of using a new app interface, you make requests by text or phone; it connects to your email·messages·screen·audio·location and more, using phones and computers like a person to handle tasks. Signup currently requires an invitation link from an existing member.
Who It Is For (Site Operator's Opinion)
Suitable for people living in the US who want to delegate tasks by text or phone as if asking an assistant. Signup currently requires an invitation link, and pricing and supported countries are undisclosed.
Tasks You Can Delegate
- Follow up on missed conversations and threads
- Proactively notify you by phone or text
- Book a ride to the airport
- Book a home repair technician
Where to Use It
