What is Tomo?
Tomo is a personal AI assistant delivered through text messaging. Once it has learned what you are aiming for, it organises its help around those goals and checks in on its own initiative to keep you on track. According to the company, it can set reminders, search the web, watch videos, edit photos, take part in group chats and connect to services such as a calendar and email so that it can manage a schedule. The site also presents it as somewhere to talk things through. Accounts are handled in a web dashboard, where messages, reminders and memories can be cleared, and payments go through Stripe. The company behind Tomo is Mapo Labs, Inc., a small San Francisco team, which states that the assistant is not a medical or therapeutic service.
