Hey Product Hunt!
Dawson here (co-founder of Martin). We’ve been building a personal AI agent and working towards the dream of real-life Jarvis for about a year now.
You can use Martin on Web and iOS. You can also shoot him a text over SMS, WhatsApp, or email.
Capabilities;
- Read, draft, and send emails
- Read and write to your calendar
- Text others back and forth on your behalf
- Make phone calls
- Ping Slack
- Track your to-do list
- Set reminders and text/email you later
- Search the web
- Prepare daily briefings for you
- Talk with you through voice in the app
- Do multi-step tasks (e.g. “brief me and the team” - checks calendar, reads new emails, pings slack)
Coming soon:
- Run background tasks (e.g. “5 minutes before every meeting, email me their LinkedIn profile”)
Excited to see you give Martin a try and let us know what tasks he should do next (or do better)!
@darweenist Congrats on launching Martin! The idea is awesome, and it really feels like we’re getting closer to having a real-life Jarvis. I’m excited to try it out! One thing I wanted to mention, though, is that my concern comes from past experiences building and using AI agents, especially ones with a lot of autonomy. Trust can sometimes be an issue with these kinds of tools. I think some thoughtful UX design and a strong onboarding process could go a long way in easing those worries. I’m definitely going to give it a shot and share more feedback once I’ve used it!
@tonyabracadabra Thanks for the comment Tony! Yeah, trust has always been top of mind for us.
A couple things we do right now:
- Before Martin sends and email, text, or Slack message for you, he shows you the message and asks for confirmation in the website/app.
- When Martin texts others on your behalf from his number, he keeps a log of his interactions in the app so you can monitor them in real time.
Going forward, we’re definitely thinking about a new and improved onboarding flow, and ways to give Martin feedback over time, which should build more trust!
I’d love to hear all your thoughts once you give it a try Tony! I’m reachable at dawson@trymartin.com.
Hey all!
Ethan here (other co-founder of Martin).
Super excited to be on board and building towards the dream of a real-life Jarvis with @darweenist !
Our vision is to have a single interface/agent that aggregates all of your information and context and executes upon that context, proactively taking care of trivial, repetitive tasks, making sure important things aren't forgotten, and streamlining your work so that you can be maximally productive.
Hopefully you enjoy this v1 and eager to hear what we can improve moving forward!
Always wanted to be like Tony Stark with the projected screens & Jarvis to help me out...I guess I now can be like that - IOS integration is pretty huge I have to say - How long has the process been to build Martin?
Congrats on an awesome feature set for your launch, Dawson!
My question would be regarding data privacy: if I integrate Martin with my startup, how is the data stored and how secure is it?
Will definitely try it out! 👏👏
@oscarxingluo Thanks Oscar! We're CASA Tier 2 compliant, which is the bar Google sets for any apps that integrate with their apps at a deep level.
Excited to hear your feedback once you try it!
Congrats on the launch, @garrytan@darweenist@ethan_hou2.
This sounds super helpful for daily productivity.
Are you planning to expand app's abilities to work with social platforms like scheduling LinkedIn posts or replying on X?
@garrytan@ethan_hou2@ashitvora Both should be coming up soon! Shoot me an email if you have more integration requests anytime!

Love this! Going to give it a try. This is exactly what I've been looking for.
I hope it can also work with/like Siri. Like "Hey Martin"
Another feature I would love is recording my meetings or sync with my Notion. I could then ask Martin anything. It'd be perfect. Butler with a brain
@sohilk Awesome, thanks Sohil! Totally hear you. Notion, Zoom, and Google Meets integrations are on the way. And yes, it's a bit hard but getting closer to the OS would be a huge buff - will work on it.

Hi Dawson, great app! Are the supported apps fixed, or will there be an option to add more for interaction?
@nicolas_barale Great question Nicolas! We're working around the clock to add more supported apps - usually we launch new apps every month (or week, when we're focused on new apps). Hoping to integrate with everything under the sun throughout next year.
