@tomhadfield is this what Fetch has pivoted to, or a separate project?

Just FYI - support@promptapp.io is bouncing, but it is listed as the email address for requesting dev access. How do we get in touch to start working with Prompt?

This is cool! Do you have to know these little @ handles or is there a way to look them up or have an app auto-identify them? Thanks for sharing!

This looks like something we could be interested in. How do we hook up to your API?

Interesting product, can user send the commands via email as well?

@weather m4k2r7 sorry, the zipcode was not recognized in your message that's 'cause it's a postal code

This is basically Google SMS remade: http://theinnovativeeducator.blo...

I'm curious what they mean by "real world"... I'd expect to be able to text things in real life, like a phone telephone poll or goldfish tank and get a response.

I love this idea! I used to use Google SMS all the time. A couple thoughts/ideas. - Maybe save default items (zip code for @weather, favorite theatre for @showtimes, etc.) - Allow users to enter a day in @weather (@weather 48226 Saturday) - Post your /list online

i love the idea and love command lines... but hate typing on my phone. :| i do like that i don't need data to be able to use this though. :)

@tomhadfield the sms service works in Italy?

Hi Tom, I have been playing with your product and I have to say that it is a very impressive start. I see tremendous possibility for what it can become. However, my biggest concern is around if you can achieve critical mass or scale through structured commands. Structure creates friction and hurts adoption. I believe you will need to allow people to express intent through natural language and interpret it intelligently (or) provide them an interactive and smart bot assistant that can help the user capture this intent. While some may be comfortable using a command line mode, most people expect to chat with a business or a device just like the way they talk to a friend. The ease, convenience and simplicity of engaging with an invisible app has to be significantly better than directly using the native app (or) other interaction models available in the mobile OS. If not, it seems hard to justify learning and using a new interface.

Hi everyone. I'm the CEO of Prompt. We are building the command line interface for the real world. You can send short text commands via SMS/Slack/etc to access services, make purchases and control IoT devices. Prompt is an open platform with tools for third party developers to build commands. Just send a text 650-666-2299 to get started!

Same premise as Peach with their magic words...and slack with their commands I think this type of communication is getting bigger and bigger - just @ something Mentioned recently in Story in a Bottle Podcast episode Chris talks about how people think this type of communication is new but it's actually an old way of communicating, now becoming more prevalent in our day to day.

Sign up button doesn't seem to work on iOS Safari😟

Oh no 😣 No GIFs?? 😟

International support?

I like the concept here. The only challenge for me is providing Prompt with the right information to get info. For example, I like that I can get flight status info. But I need to put in the flight #. By the time I look that up, I can see the flight status without going through Prompt. Trying to figure out how I can integrate this into my day. Any thoughts?

Is there a list of all the available commands available?

This is interesting and right in line with what @chrismessina wrote about recently. Best of luck on PH!
