Overview
Asmi AI and ego are two very different takes on the personal AI agent concept. Asmi focuses on the real world: it calls businesses and people on your behalf, navigates phone trees, waits on hold, and books appointments. It communicates with you via daily morning calls or text (iMessage/WhatsApp). No app needed.
ego, on the other hand, is a digital productivity powerhouse. It lives across your browser, desktop, and phone, handling complex multi-step workflows like editing files, sending emails, writing code, and monitoring web changes. It learns from your behavior over time and runs tasks 24/7 in the background.
