DoAnything – AI agent with its own email/phone for your to-do list

SMRTR summary

Silicon Valley's latest creation can sign up for its own Twitter account, manage a LinkedIn profile, and even pause work when waiting for email replies. Meet "YourAI Agent," which its creators claim goes far beyond typical chatbots by functioning as an autonomous digital worker equipped with its own identity, complete with name and email address.

The AI system promises to handle complex, multi-step projects like launching newsletters, planning international trips, or starting businesses from scratch. When users don't respond within 60 seconds, the agent reflects on alternative approaches and continues working independently.

The platform connects to over 3,000 applications and can spawn "subagents" to delegate tasks, essentially creating a digital workforce. It sends text messages only when human input is truly necessary, allowing users to step away from screens while maintaining control.

This represents a significant shift from passive AI assistants toward proactive digital employees that can navigate websites, make phone calls, write code, and manage their own online presence autonomously.
