    Simple AI public launch - AI phone assistant

    Catheryn Li ·

    We’re thrilled to announce that starting today, Simple AI Phone Assistant is available on the App store!

    Simple AI can make AI powered phone calls on your behalf. Simple can wait on hold and navigate phone trees. Simple can make phone calls in 33 countries using 15 different languages, or even call 10 different stores at the same time.

    We tested a beta version of the app extensively with our initial set of 1000 users. We wanted to make sure Simple could successfully perform a variety of tasks, including: making restaurant reservations; finding and booking doctors, dentist, and vision appointments; asking grocery stores, hardware stores, and other retail stores for availability or stock; calling customer support to ask for help with accounts, billing, and more.

    We started Simple AI with the simple vision to bring the power of AI to regular people. We went through Y Combinator’s Summer 24 batch. During YC, we saw many startups working on ideas that leverage the new AI and LLM technology to upend various industries. But no one was working on AI for consumers.

    It turns out people really hate making phone calls, and our AI is pretty good at it.

    In fact, it’s better than a human at certain tasks. Zach and I both needed a new eye doctor and independently set out to find one that would 1) take our new insurance, and 2) had availability soon. Zach did some research on the internet and got an appointment 3 weeks out. I had Simple call 15 optometrists near Potrero Hill and got mine in 6 days.

    We give people access to an AI assistant at their fingertips. Try it out today at www.usesimple.ai/join.
