i measure this stuff for a living, so i assumed this one needed an app, an account and an afternoon.
it is a contact. saved the number, texted hi, connected my calendar, asked what tomorrow looked like, and it answered straight out of my own calendar.
four minutes, no install, no login, no onboarding screen.
now my assistant sits in the same thread list as my mum, which i did not expect to be the part that gets me.
Today we're launching Rene.
A multiplayer-first iMessage agent you text like a friend.
It has a browser, writes code, goes shopping, ships sites, makes slides and images. Not much it can’t do.
It's been in my texts for four months. It found me a new office, preps me for every meeting, and polls the team for dinner options.
