About jo
Summary
jo builds a proactive personal AI agent for individuals juggling work, family, and daily life admin. It connects to email, calendar, messaging apps, and productivity tools, then surfaces what needs attention and acts on it, drafting replies, preparing briefings, and running scheduled routines without waiting to be asked. It replaces the manual habit of checking every inbox and app separately to figure out what to do next.
Business model
Free while in beta
Go-to-market
Individuals sign up self-serve via web or email; jo runs on Mac and a hosted private cloud, with access through iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, and a web interface.
From the Y Combinator listing
The private AI that runs your life before you ask.
jo is a personal AI that runs on your Mac and a private cloud machine we host for you. It knows your life, improves itself autonomously, chats via Telegram and WhatsApp, and never shares your data. Less "chatbot" and more "a second brain that does things proactively".
