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 Wow, Martin sounds incredible! I’ve always had a soft spot for the idea of a Jarvis-like assistant, so it’s really exciting to see a product like this come to life. Congrats!👏
@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.
Love this product idea but $35 / month is steep (hit the challenge immediately when asked it to check my email). Am I being a cheap-ass here? IDK, I subscribe to a lot of AI stuff and this still feels over the top. I would have gone for $9.99 no problem.
@jboutelle Hey Jonathan, totally get it. We definitely want to make sure we prove Martin's worth before charging you $35/month, so currently we have a 7 day free trial for both the mobile and web app.
I'm also curious what other AI tools you are subscribed to. Feel free to shoot me an email at dawson@trymartin.com.
@darweenist Congratulations on launching Martin! The vision of creating a real-life Jarvis is incredibly exciting. The breadth of capabilities you've built in - from email management to voice interactions and multi-step tasks - shows impressive integration across different communication channels.
I'm particularly intrigued by the upcoming background tasks feature. Have you considered implementing contextual learning, where Martin could proactively suggest tasks based on recurring patterns in a user's workflow? For example, if someone regularly asks for prep materials before specific types of meetings, Martin could start anticipating these needs and suggest creating automated workflows.
Looking forward to seeing how Martin evolves! 🚀
I gave it a go a few months ago and was amazed at how it worked, honestly its incredible how much Martin has improved on this short time! keep at it @darweenist !!
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.
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?
