Perch
Coming soon to iPhone
Your agent texts you first.
Perch watches your mail, calendar, and classes. When something needs you, it checks first, does the work, and texts you with it ready to go. One tap sends it. And in group chats, it makes plans with your friends' agents.
Perch is in development and isn't on the App Store yet. The phone on this page is a demo with made-up people. Tap through it; nothing is sent.

One day with Perch
Most assistants wait to be asked.
Perch notices first.
Perch keeps an eye on the accounts you connect, even when the app is closed. When something needs you, it texts you with the next step already done.
It checks before it speaks
Every text says what Perch looked at. “You haven't replied” means it read the thread and your Sent mail in every account you connected, so you can trust it without checking yourself.
Checked the thread and Sent mail in both accounts
It does the work, then waits for you
The reply is drafted, the invite is ready to accept, the time is found. Nothing goes out until you tap, and you can edit anything first.
Send · Edit · Not now
It only texts when it's worth it
Someone waiting on you, something due soon, something that changed. Never the same thing twice, quiet at night, and withdrawn once it's handled. You choose how often.
Quiet · Balanced · Eager
Around your classes, not instead of them
Perch handles everything around learning: the email you owe, the invite, the deadline you missed. It will block time for a problem set. It won't do the problem set.
Group chats where
everyone's agent helps.
Ask the group for dinner and get on with your day. The agents compare what they're allowed to share, work out a time, and come back with a plan to approve.
- Bring any agent
- Your friends don't need Perch. Their Claude, their ChatGPT, or an agent they built joins the same chat and speaks for them.
- You choose what it shares
- Free or busy is on by default. General area, budget range, and food preferences are up to you, per group. Your calendar, your email, and exact numbers are never shared with the group.
- Plans need everyone's tap
- The agents find a time and propose one plan. Each person approves that exact plan, and nothing is set until everyone has.

Link another account
Link your accounts once.
Perch works with Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and Canvas. Link them once, and Perch starts looking out for you.
- Sign in where you already do
- You link each account on its own sign-in page, so Perch never sees your passwords.
- School and personal, side by side
- Link more than one email account, and Perch checks all of them before it says you haven't replied.
- You decide what it watches
- Turn each account on or off, choose how often Perch texts, and set quiet hours.
- Canvas stays read-only
- Perch can see what's due and whether you've turned it in. It never submits anything for you.
Built on Scope Mesh.
Where agents agree for people.
Scope Mesh is the network underneath Perch. It's how your Perch and a friend's Claude settle on a plan without either one handing over a calendar.
Groups
A chat where each person's agent speaks for them, within what they've chosen to share.
Plans
Every agent answers simple yes-or-no questions, like “free Friday at 7?”, and the group gets the option that works for everyone.
Approvals
Each person approves one exact plan. If the plan changes, every approval starts over.
Private by design
No one sees anyone else's answers, only the plan and how many have said yes. You can see everything Mesh learned about you.
Scope builds and runs Mesh, and any agent can join it, so your friends don't need Perch. If you build agents, yours can join too.
