Asmi AI - AI that handles your personal chores in the real world
by•
Asmi calls you every morning. You talk - it handles the day. It calls services (dentist, salon, plumber, bank, insurance) or people (friends, colleagues) to coordinate, book or resolve things. Updates you on iMessage or WhatsApp when done. It can navigate IVRS, wait on hold and handle complex conversations well.

Everyone will have their very personal agent soon, and your product seems to be right on track. Congrats on the launch!
Asmi AI
@nikitaeverywhere Thank you so much! We completely agree—the future is personal agents, and we are incredibly excited to be building that bridge into the real world. :)

@nikitaeverywhere One day soon, my Asmi will be talking to your Asmi on the phone!
Interesting and even frightening! How Asmi handles situations where businesses refuse to talk with AI agents?
Asmi AI
@igorsorokinua Hi Igor - Asmi works very similar to a human personal assistant. Just that it’s more efficient, multi-lingual, and can handle hundreds of tasks in parallel.
If any business or person refuses to talk with an AI, we do respect their choice. Asmi comes back to user with the exact situation and can share the contact details with the user for them to call the business directly.
The WhatsApp or iMessage updates are a smart touch. It's good we don't have to open and monitor a dashboard. Congrats.

@ankur_jeswani Thanks Ankur. You're absolutely right. Asmi is totally hassle-free, and we chose calls and iMessage/WhastApp to make it really easy for everyday consumers to use Asmi effectively
Asmi AI
@ankur_jeswani The faster we can get you from problem to solution, the sooner you can move on with your day. Every step of the way has been optimized for minimizing your own effort. The same messaging apps you're used to, the medium of voice to reduce barrier of entry, the intelligence to parse your task and convert it into an action, the curated presentation of results. All to make sure nothing is lost in the weeds, and no wasted effort is needed on your part.

How does Asmi perform with regional accents, noisy phone lines, and poor call quality?
Asmi AI
@roopreddy Asmi does really well with regional accents - we have 50+ languages available today. For noise phones lines and poor call quality - we are currently dependent on external vendors, and they handle this, but for the future, we do plan to optimize this in-house and provide a better experience to all users.

Would love to see calendar integration so Asmi can automatically suggest available slots.
Asmi AI
@istiakahmad Thanks Istiak, you’ll be happy to hear that calendar integration actually already exists as a silent feature! You can connect it right now to add more context to your tasks.
We deliberately designed Asmi to work powerfully out of the box without needing any integrations at all, but adding your calendar will only make the experience more personalized and powerful moving forward!

@abod_rehman Thanks Abdul!
The beauty of Asmi is that it sits right inside iMessage or WhatsApp where you already spend your time, so there’s no new app or context-switching needed.
You can text Asmi between chats, or just call hands-free while driving, on a run, or grabbing groceries. It's always right there when you need it!
Nice! I'll ask boring but important question: Many countries require upfront disclosure that calls are recorded (which they have to be for the service) and that it's an AI (which is robo calling, at the end of the day). How will you handle this, and will it mean people on the other end hang up right away when the hear that it's a "robot recording the call"?
Asmi AI
@peter_neyra Thanks Peter for highlighting such an important aspect. We as an organisation try our best to be compliant with all such regulations. Asmi does take user consent before initiating the first call with them. And for every outside call made, Asmi declares its an AI and it would share the conversation with the user. We follow all regulations and still try to do it with a taste and better UX - both are true!
@rishi_raj thanks for the answer!
Your example was about calling externals, which is the more relevant bit. Users are fine. So for your dentist example, it called and said "this is an AI call and is being recorded" before saying anything else, or? In Spain for example there's a public blacklist of companies reported for doing unsolicited calls, called The Robinson List, hence why I ask. I wanted to integrate something similar just using ElevenLabs agents in a past project but ultimately that would make the hang-up rate super high
Asmi AI
@peter_neyra Just to be clear, people can not use Asmi for marketing or any unsolicited activities today. Asmi only calls for booking appointments, resolving issues or coordinating plans on behalf of the user. It's all about handling everyday personal chores. We do follow all compliances very strictly.
@rishi_raj "We comply strictly" tells us you've put it in writing, but avoids the specifics. I'm assuming you're not texting plumbers and dentists beforehand for consent, so the disclosure has to come before anything else during the call itself.
So: on a cold outbound to a plumber who never opted in, once Asmi leads with "I'm an AI and this call is recorded," what's your completion rate vs. a human making the same call? That delta needs to be ~zero for this to be a useful product, otherwise it's a thin layer that hasn't ironed out the practical kinks.
TLDR: what's your expected hang-up rate?
I had Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini open in three tabs. All brilliant. None of them would pick up the phone." that line alone sells the whole product. the IVR navigation and waiting on hold part is the real value because that's where everyone's time actually goes. not the conversation itself but the 20 minutes of hold music before it even starts. curious how it handles callbacks when the service asks to call back later
Asmi AI
@tina_chhabra Thanks Tina. Whenever Asmi comes across a missed call or voicemail situation, either it can automatically recall in next few minutes or users can explicitly decide when Asmi should call back. Asmi is trained to handle all these task loops efficiently!
Fantastic idea. I was just thinking that something like this would be damn helpful. However, can you work on the sync? For some reason, it is not able to sync my contacts very well.
Asmi AI
@mehulmishra6 Thanks Mehul. We have not yet enabled the contact sync feature as we are privacy first and we do not ask for any permission or access to your personal data to get Asmi to work for you. User has options to share the contact details over chat (iMessage or WhatsApp), and Asmi saves it for all future references after that.
@rishi_raj Thanks for getting back
I tried that. I uploaded a CSV several times. It was not able to register it. Syncing with Google contacts didn't work either.

@priyankamandal That’s right, Priyanka. We are focused on solving your real world chores while there are hundreds of other assistants just helping you with digital tasks.
Asmi AI
@priyankamandal Completely agreed. It sometimes feels like a loop to invent the very problem you intend to solve. What makes Asmi different is the philosophy of starting and finishing entirely outside that loop. Take something that matters to the user and handle it in front of them.
