folk vs Martin
Martin is a proactive AI personal assistant you reach by phone, SMS, WhatsApp, email, Slack, or its own app — it manages your calendar and inbox, sets reminders, and can even text and call on your behalf. Folk works in your texts too, but adds its own cloud computer, built-in real-world skills like restaurant booking and flight tracking, a deeper memory graph, and the option to bring your own keys.
why people switch from Martin to folk
folk has its own computer
Martin coordinates your email, calendar, and communications. Folk does that and runs on its own cloud computer that browses the web and executes code, so it can handle multi-step tasks in a real environment, not just route messages.
real-world skills, built in
Folk ships with Resy booking and flight-price tracking as first-class skills that run autonomously and on a schedule. Martin can search the web and call to book, but folk's monitoring and booking happen on their own in the background.
bring your own models and keys
Folk lets you run your own Anthropic, OpenAI, or OpenRouter keys, kept inside your private sandbox, so you control the models and the spend. Martin does not offer this.
native in the apps you already text in
Folk lives inside iMessage, Telegram, and WhatsApp. Martin reaches you across SMS, WhatsApp, phone, email, and Slack plus its own app and dashboard; folk keeps everything in the chat you already use.
