What is a personal AI?
A personal AI is an artificial-intelligence assistant dedicated to one person — it learns your preferences, remembers your context, and takes actions on your behalf across everyday life.
Unlike a general chatbot that starts fresh every session, a personal AI is built around you. It keeps a persistent memory of your routines, contacts, and preferences, and uses that context to be genuinely useful over time rather than answering each question in isolation.
The most capable personal AIs go beyond conversation to take real action — booking reservations, managing email, tracking flights, and running tasks on a schedule — often from the messaging apps you already use, so help is always one message away.

Folk is a personal AI that lives in your iMessage, Telegram, and WhatsApp. It has its own cloud computer, remembers everything across conversations, and takes real action — the definition of a personal AI, in practice.

Can a personal AI take actions for me?
The best ones can. Beyond answering questions, a personal AI like folk books restaurants, drafts and sends email, tracks flights, and runs scheduled tasks using its own tools.
