Pally is an AI personal assistant tool developed by Haz Hubble and Wyatt Lansford that you interact with by texting it the way you'd text a friend. You reach it over iMessage, RCS, and even on the phone , and what sets the product apart is a direct hook into your personal messaging inboxes rather than just work email. Unlike other iMessage agents, Pally connects directly to your iMessage and WhatsApp inboxes, because that's where your life really lives. The launch matters because Pally is pairing that consumer-messaging surface with the connectors people actually use for work. You can connect apps like iMessage, WhatsApp, Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Google Calendar, Granola, Notion, Linear, or Drive, and get a daily morning brief and important-message alerts from your connected apps. In practice, that means the assistant can draft replies, chase action items, and pull context from your calendar and docs without you leaving the thread you're already in. The company is a Y Combinator S25 batch member, and founder Haz Hubble is based in San Francisco and also runs London Founder House. The initial audience skews toward founders, investors, and operators who juggle large personal networks across scattered channels and want a single text-based way to keep those relationships and their to-do lists moving.

So you're telling me my AI assistant is about to read the 3am voice notes from my situationship. Cool cool cool.

The tweet buries the lede. 'Access to iMessage' should be the first line, not paragraph three.

How are you getting iMessage access without a Mac bridge or some sketchy relay? Genuinely curious what the plumbing looks like.

Would love to know how consent works for the other people in the chat who did not sign up for Pally. That's a fun deposition waiting to happen.

ok wait, the moat here is literally 'we read your group chats' and honestly that's more defensible than half the wrappers I've seen this month.

high school dropout founder, YC S25, iMessage assistant. this is the most 2025 sentence ever constructed.

Naive q: what happens when my mom texts me in Spanish and my group chat is in English and my boss uses only emojis? Does it just pick a vibe?

The screenshot in the thread has the bubble tail pointing the wrong way on the assistant reply. Small thing but it's the whole product.

You only truly know a person after reading their unread iMessages. Pally is speedrunning intimacy.
