Products that do what TextAI – Native SMS AI assistant for individual and group chats does

Hey HN community! Like many of you, I spend most of my day in text conversations. One day I found myself switching between group chats and various AI apps, and thought, why can't AI just live where we already chat? So I built TextAI. It's an AI that works right in your SMS app. No new app to download, no platform to learn. Just text +15626840069 to start chatting or add it to any group chat! The tech and stack details: - Native SMS/MMS integration with context management across conversations - Handles multiple participants, learns group preferences, and scales for concurrent chats -…

    Hi HN, I over-thought one too many “lol sounds fun” texts and decided to teach a model to be my wingman instead.

You can also ask questions about your conversation. Why post here I’d love feedback on: * whether this is something people need. * how was the user experience. * what features would you like to see. Thanks in…

    We're back with another ShowHN! When we launched, you could text Jarvis AI using regular SMS messages from your phone. Since launching 3 weeks ago[1], we've introduced two new channels for using ChatGPT. Now you can use ChatGPT over SMS text message, iMessage for Apple-enabled devices, and via Email. It is super interesting to forward an email to Jarvis AI and see its thoughts on your email thread. It can help you brainstorm or it can suggest a reply to previous emails. 10 messages free forever, more volume is free over iMessage and Email for a limited time (until the HN hug of death!). You…

    Hi all, we’re happy to present this demo we’re calling “DeepAI Hotline”. We were interested in ways to bring ChatGPT capabilities to people around the world, particularly those who might not be comfortable with computers and smartphones. We felt that the old-school phone system was potentially a good way to do this. We built this using the Vocode SDK: https://vocode.dev (YCW23). Some of the feedback we’ve heard is that it responds to questions impressively fast, and it feels relatively natural compared to older assistants like Siri. Another funny one: “Feels more real than some…
