Poke

Say hi to Poke! Now part of @Cognition 🦦🌴

[Poke @interaction]

After almost two years in Palo Alto, @Interaction is moving to SF.

Some opportunities are bigger than sunshine! 🌴

[Cognition @cognition]

Cognition is acquiring @Interaction, the makers of Poke.

If you've ever used Poke, you know why we're so excited.

We created a list of the most notable AI agents that can live in your text messages, from general assistants to agents designed for families, travel, and work.

It’s interesting that no one has built an all-in-one tool for personal agents (like @Muse, @instinct, @bot, @interaction) that hold all connections to third party companies. Convinced that this should be an independent product.

That way you can keep auth separate, audit what the agent does, set fine-grained permissions and easily switch between the agent apps.

I built it over the last few days with @hkonsti_. It’s open source and easy to self-host.

Now my Instinct has exactly the same tools as Claude Code on my laptop.

[Olivia Moore @omooretweets]

Not enough hype on @marvinvonhagen, @felixms and the entire @interaction team

It’s now obvious they were very early (and right!) to a massive new form factor and way of interaction

Thank you for your work in enabling consumer agents 🙏

One reason why I use iMessage agents like @interaction Instinct for daily stuff is the launch time. The ChatGPT app takes like forever to boot and by that time I have already sent that message in iMessage. And also the responses are shorter and quicker.

bought the @clickskeyboard power keyboard for $10 out of a bin and somehow still feel financially violated

BlackBerry muscle memory in 2026 is pure psychological warfare

@interaction was right, some hardware belongs in the museum

[ember @embeputer]

my agent stack
@DevinAI: makes me stuff
@interaction: day-to-day
@hark_labs: tasks that require a computer, brainstorming

[toki @tokifyi]

asked poke for the top 20 bay area hikes. it built and published a site with webly

how’d it do? what’s missing?

[Yong Ning @yongninggg]

personal update: I've joined @Hone, and we're launching today!

my belief: if you want to solve a problem, solve the hardest version first.

> GPS was first built for the military. Now it guides every ride and delivery.

> Computers were built for governments. Now there's one in every household.

> Gmail was first built for consumers. Now millions of businesses run on it.

building AI at @interaction taught me how much agents can do for one person. I wanted to see what they could do for a whole company.

that's a whole new set of problems. people who want different things. goals that take months. info that's outdated or stuck in someone's head.

booking the wrong flight is annoying, sharing the wrong file with the wrong person can end a company

i joined to work on that, with people I'd bet on!

come build with us!

[shresth @rested_7]

added a bunch of updates to muzzle (the mac website blocker you can't turn off)

- temporary bypasses: pause blocking for a custom window (resets every 24h)
- you can bother @interaction to request an additional bypass
- the logo will go from empty to complete as the bypass is about to be over
- when two minutes are left it will show a notification
- a new time based blocker instead of an infinite one
- the api key for poke is now stored in apple keychain
- universal builds for arm and x86

[Zachi @iam_zachi]

Well, @interaction was clearly ahead of its time

[cova @covacut]

what i want from personal assistants (dots, poke, instinct, muse, bots etc.):

a means to the means

i don't want a means to an end. to endure dull talk in order to get work done.

i want a conversation that sparks joy, that teases out my answers, that reminds me i'm human

[Fred @fwjliu]

Personal update: will be joining @trymelius

Tons of fun working with the team at @interaction (@felixms @marvinvonhagen) 🦦

Lmk if you’re in nyc

[Deepak @deepakcw]

Who's winning the AI Assistant wars?
@hey__fo @pallyai @noahrshinn @heyollieai @getskydive @bot @thineai @interaction or others? 👀

[Oliwer Zajączkowski @twolays]

thanks @interaction for fixing my car, finding which fuse is for what, researching forums has gotten really good over the past few months. poke knew my issues from a few months ago, with that, it researched more and found the cause. power usage when car is off before vs after

[poldish @poldidawg]

i'm ready to book so many flights

[maria @maria_rcks]

is this where we're going

[Ambitendency @Ambitendency_]

Most voice note apps are where ideas go to die.

I capture in @voicenotesai and @letterlyai. once a day, @interaction (Poke) files the new transcripts into a Notion database. official MCP servers, so it's your login, not a scrape. (1/3)
