Milo: The AI for Your Group Chat Milo is the AI that lives in your group chat. No more "let's do something" messages that go nowhere — Milo turns group chat talk into real plans. How It Works Add Milo to any WhatsApp group chat. When your crew wants to plan something — dinner, a trip, tickets to a game, a weekend hangout — just tag @milo. It listens to the conversation, picks up everyone's preferences, searches the web for real options, and sends you an approval card right here in the app. One tap to lock it in. What Milo Can Do Plan anything — restaurants, trips, events, activities. Tell it what you want and it finds verified options with prices, hours, and addresses. Remember your people — Milo learns that Jay is vegetarian, that your group prefers budget-friendly spots, that you're in the Bay Area. It uses this context automatically for every future plan. Check your calendar — Connect Google Calendar and Milo can check when everyone's free before suggesting a time. No more back-and-forth about scheduling. Actually book it — When the group agrees, Milo sends an approval to the app. Review the details, tap approve, and it's added to everyone's connected calendars. Answer questions — Ask Milo about the weather, game scores, restaurant hours, ticket prices, or anything that needs a quick web search. It responds naturally in the group chat. Stay out of the way — Milo only speaks when spoken to. It watches the conversation for context but never interrupts when people are just chatting with each other. The App The Milo app is your companion for everything happening across your group chats: Activity feed — See what Milo is working on in real time. Research in progress, options ready for review, pending approvals. Upcoming events — All your locked-in plans in one place with dates, venues, and who's coming. Approve plans — Review Milo's recommendations with full details — price, location, timing — and approve or deny with one tap. Connected apps — Link Google Calendar so Milo can check availability and add confirmed plans automatically. Your groups — See all the groups Milo is part of and what's active in each one. Why Milo Every friend group has a group chat. Every group chat has the same problem: someone says "let's do dinner" and then nothing happens. Twenty messages fly by, nobody picks a spot, nobody checks if everyone's free, and the plan dies. Milo fixes this. It's not another app your friends have to download — it lives where you already talk. One person adds Milo to the group, and suddenly plans actually happen. No accounts required for your friends. No switching apps. No "check this link." Just talk naturally in your group chat and let Milo handle the rest. Privacy Milo only reads messages in groups where it's been added. Your calendar data stays between you and Milo. Memories and preferences are stored per group and never shared outside it. You can tell Milo to forget anything at any time.
