    TLDR

    Lucas advertises an AI assistant that texts users about unfinished tasks and asks before acting. Its website lists reservations, appointments and refunds through iMessage and WhatsApp, with examples including canceled flights and unreturned deposits. These are product claims rather than evidence of how reliably it completes tasks.

    Lucas is pitching an AI assistant that starts conversations about unfinished tasks and asks before taking action. Its product page advertises help with reservations, appointments and refunds through iMessage and WhatsApp.

    The company’s About page describes an assistant that notices a canceled flight, an unreturned deposit or missing RSVPs, then texts the user to ask whether it should handle the task. It also lists forgotten renewals and unanswered messages among the chores Lucas is intended to address.

    Those examples describe the company’s proposed experience. They do not establish how reliably Lucas completes the tasks.

    LucasLucas - Assistant That Texts You First
    @MaxDerevyWe built an AI that saves your ass. Meet Lucas. It’s been meaning to text you. It lives in your texts, learns your life, and prompts itself. It books, pays, orders and checks you in. Usually before you’ve thought of it. Overnight, it goes exploring for things your life could use. Text Lucas today on iMessage and WhatsApp http://www.meetlucas.ai
    @omarsar0I think the consumer breakthrough for agents comes when they start the conversation themselves. Lucas lives in iMessage and WhatsApp and texts you first when something needs handling, like a refund on a canceled flight or a booking you keep putting off. Proactive capabilities are great.

    @svpinoEveryone is launching autonomous agents now, but there's something cool about this one: It scans your messages, proactively selects tasks it thinks you need to complete, asks for your permission, and then works on them. I really like that.
    @rohanpaul_aiI'd judge a personal agent by one number: how often it had to be asked. Lucas is built to push that toward zero. it lives in the chats you already use, connects to email and calendar through a google or microsoft sign-in in about 30 seconds, and brings you the booking or reschedule before you've thought of it the decision still stays with you. everything irreversible waits for a yes.
    @MilksandMatchaIt's very clear that many of the current AI personal assistants are built by people who are coding agent/ software monkey pilled Excited to see assistants that pop up that feel more human/general public first Congrats on the launch @MaxDerevy
    @kimmonismusMuse Meta and OpenAI's dot is not available in europe. Luckily there are alternatives. Like this one: Lucas says it texts you first in iMessage or WhatsApp, handles everyday admin, and asks before anything irreversible.
