Poke is a personal AI agent by The Interaction Company of California (Palo Alto) that lives entirely inside messaging platforms – Apple Messages (Messages for Business), WhatsApp, Telegram, and RCS – requiring no app download. It autonomously handles tasks such as email management, calendar scheduling, reminders, smart home control, and photo editing. As of June 2026, Poke is the first and only AI agent officially approved on Apple's Messages for Business platform. Third-party integrations are added via pre-built "Recipes" or any MCP-compatible server.
