Graylin gives you a personal AI pod — your own AI workspace that manages tasks, automates workflows, handles contacts, and works across channels. It's not just a chatbot. It's a capable assistant with its own tools, memory, and personality. CHAT WITH YOUR AI Have natural conversations with your AI assistant. Graylin streams responses in real time, remembers context across sessions, and supports media attachments. Organize conversations into projects for easy reference. MANAGE TASKS A full task board with drag-and-drop Kanban columns: backlog, todo, in progress, blocked, done, and more. Your AI can create and update tasks for you, or you can manage them yourself.

Ask in plain words, by voice or by text, and Taki gets it done across your iPhone: send a text, add a calendar event, set a reminder, get directions, check the weather, read your steps, dim the lights, play a song, track a package — all from one place. No rigid commands. Just talk the way you'd talk to a friend. WHAT TAKI CAN DO • Messages & calls — draft and send texts or emails in your own voice, save contacts, place calls • Calendar & reminders — add, move, find, and clear events; get reminded when you arrive somewhere • Maps & weather — find what's nearby, get directions, answer "will it rain?" • Health — check steps, sleep, heart rate and more; log water or workouts; see your trends • Photos — search your library on-device ("beach photos") and ask what's in a picture • Music & home — play music and control HomeKit lights, locks, and thermostats • Alarms, timers & stopwatch — with a Clock tab to manage them all • Lists, notes, expenses & habits — capture it all just by asking • Live info — sports scores, stock and crypto prices, flight status, and countdowns • Get moving — hand off to your favorite ride, food, and reservation apps in a tap LIVE ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN Live Activities and the Dynamic Island keep the moment in view: a "time to leave" countdown that reads live traffic, package delivery updates, flight arrivals, timers, and alarms — all in a clean glass design.
