@hero_assistant Love the new fluffy Hero! 🥹

[Saharsh Vedi @SaharshVedi]

@bradkowalk @hero_assistant Finally a way to stop all the doomscrolling 🙌

[brad @bradkowalk]

Introducing a new category of app:
Your Daily Assistant

Unlike other apps, @hero_assistant is the first daily assistant to run your life:

1) Brings your entire life into *one app*

2) Briefs you every morning with what you need to know

3) Tells you exactly what's coming up, with 'SuperAlerts' that take over your lock screen

4) And blocks social media when you have things to do

Why? Because if you jump between apps all day, eventually you'll blow up 😉

@hero_assistant A new era ahead! Excited to see future breakthrough products built with this 😎

Introducing AI Autocomplete, a huge breakthrough for natural language interfaces. Available as an SDK.

AI Autocomplete unlocks multiple new AI step changes: 10X faster search and commerce, media generation, natural advertising, and powerful augmented reality!

This is promising for the future of Hero Assistant - Imagine an app where you can accomplish anything you can do on the internet, in one shot.

But even bigger, it's a step change for the AI industry!

Reach out if you have a product that could use AI Autocomplete.

[brad @bradkowalk]

I’m very excited to announce AI Autocomplete

AI Autocomplete is a breakthrough patented technology that supercharges natural language input = Unlocking 10x faster search and commerce, advertising, and powerful augmented reality. Available for use as an SDK.

This solves a fundamental problem of today’s chat interfaces – They are good at single step request, but any multi-step action (like booking a flight or purchasing goods) quickly becomes a back and forth 'game of 10 questions'.

While working on our own assistant, we realized the core driver of this problem is a human one: People don’t know everything they need to say upfront, for every action you could do on the internet. And to solve it, we would need to think about how to marry design and technology in a new way.

AI Autocomplete solves this, and can now plug into chat interfaces to guide you in real-time, with everything you would need to say, upfront. So you can do anything you can do on the internet in one shot. No more back and forth.

As a result, this unlocks multiple AI breakthroughs:
1. 10x faster search and commerce
2. Smarter (and far lower cost) media generation
3. Natural language advertising
4. Powerful, lightweight Augmented Reality

From here, we’ll be using this for Hero, but we also want others to use it too since this is an industry-wide problem. So if you have a product that could benefit from AI Autocomplete and want to work with us, reach out below!

Shoutout to @seunglee1b who helped think of and patent this nearly 3 years ago! And shoutout to the entire @hero_assistant team that keeps innovating on the next generation of AI products

@hero_assistant is now showing something that I deeply believe: the future of all software (and assistants in particular) will be hyper *personalized*.

yeah but what does that mean?

Specifically, in the near-term a company won't determine what your app should look like. You will.

1) You will be able to change the theme...

2) Toggle on and off what you want or don't...

3) Arrange the layout of your app...

4) The UI will start to become 'progressive'... showing you certain things *only if you did X*.

And in the medium term?

5) This is where generative interfaces will come into place. You will just say what you want, and the app will change to what you want.

6) And remember each preference over time to eventually become your dream app.

Few people know this, but the reason we chose the name Hero is not because the app is your Hero.

You are the Hero. The app is just an extension of you.

[Hero Assistant @hero_assistant]

Introducing the first *personalized* Daily Assistant 🎨

Hero Assistant is the only app for you to run your life all in one place: your calendars, to-dos, habits, grocery ordering, weather, goals, news.

And now you can personalize it to be *yours*

And this is just the start.

[Saharsh Vedi @SaharshVedi]

@hero_assistant 🔥

[brad @bradkowalk]

While this is a good milestone, the truth (and exciting thing) is...

99% of people haven't heard of this concept of a "Daily Assistant".

And we've only built 10% of what we know Hero Assistant can be

[Hero Assistant @hero_assistant]

Milestone 🎉 = 150,000 people!!

Since publicly launching, over 150,000 people have used Hero to run their lives. And of those, many are still using Hero many months later.

Why? Because Hero is not like any other app to date. Instead of spreading your life across 10 different apps, Hero is the only app that simplifies your life by bringing everything into one place, and working seamlessly with your partner, family, and friends.

But this is just the start. While Hero replaces 8 apps currently, much bigger things are coming. You will eventually wake up and be able to run most of your life all in one place. No more having things slipping through the cracks, no more coordinating, no more need to be type A.

Instead, living your best life will start to be as simple as just deciding what you want.

To achieve this leap forward, we're honored to bring on @ForerunnerVC and a few other important investors. Forerunner is unmatched in their success bringing category defining consumer products into the world, and we couldn't be more excited to be doing this with them.

If you haven't tried Hero Assistant yet, give it a shot!

[brad @bradkowalk]

This is where it gets fun... Now that you can "follow habits" in @hero_assistant...

You can directly send a push notification to someone to motivate them

So you can try it in 3 seconds now:

Just tap this link to send a ♥️ push notification to him https://t.co/HmhNbEI0Ss

[Hero Assistant @hero_assistant]

Introducing = "Follow my habits" 😱

Would you keep your habits, if you knew your friend was watching?

Well now you can do the unthinkable... With Hero Assistant, just:
1) Tap to share a habit
2) They will get a text every time *you don't* complete it

[brad @bradkowalk]

Super excited for this innovative new feature = "Follow my habits"

If you're reading this, I'm guessing you have tried -and probably failed- to keep habits in the past (...aka every habit of mine!)

So we had a crazy idea: Since having an accountability buddy helps to build habits like going to the gym...

What if your friend could get a text when *you didn't* complete your habit?

...Would you be more likely to go to the gym? More likely to call grandma every week? More likely to take your medication? More likely to keep your new diet?

If you're serious about creating and keeping a new habit, definitely try this out:
1) Create a habit with @hero_assistant
2) Share it with your partner, family, or friend

[Hero Assistant @hero_assistant]

Introducing the most powerful Habits 🔁 and Goals🏁 app ever

Today, Hero not only launched Habits and Goals... but paired them with it's super powerful "Can't Miss" notifications, so you cannot forget.

(comment "Habits" if you want to know what's even bigger, coming next...)

[brad @bradkowalk]

If anyone is watching closely…

this marks the 7th and 8th apps that Hero Assistant has brought into one Daily Assistant to run your life.

📅✅🛒📝⛅️📰 + 🔁🏁

Why does this matter?

For users, you never forget anything when everything is in one place.

And on top of that, when everything works together, you’re able to do things no individual app can do. Like order your grocery list.

...But perhaps even more interesting, this is the exact opposite of what people have been expecting.

With it becoming easier to make apps, it’s actually less likely to result in more apps on our phones.

Instead, it’s more likely to result in fewer, more powerful apps, that simplify your life.

Introducing: Add From Image 📸

If you use paper at all, now you can just take a picture and it finds and adds any events, to-dos, and notes instantly.

Now you don't have to decide between paper or digital. You can do both. You can even take screenshots of emails and texts!

[brad @bradkowalk]

we've long known that @hero_assistant's biggest competitor was *paper*.

It used to be a tradeoff between writing things down, or putting everything on your phone.

Now you don't have to decide. Keep using paper lists and calendars. But when you want to take it with you, or don't want to lose anything....

Just take a picture. Try it out and lmk what you think!
