Howie
What it is
Howie is an AI assistant for inbox and calendar work, available on the web and iOS. It reads email threads, checks availability, proposes times, handles replies, and creates calendar events. For group meetings, it can find times across email threads and follow up when invitees stop responding. Calendar tools include finding open blocks, adding holds and buffers, watching for conflicts, and remembering scheduling rules. Howie also manages reminders, to-dos, and follow-ups, prepares a daily briefing, and tracks who the user is waiting on. Users can communicate through email, iMessage, and SMS. Listed integrations include Gmail, Google Calendar, Zoom, Granola, Notion, Todoist, Linear, PostHog, and Stripe. Team includes an email-based scheduling secretary, unlimited teammates, an iMessage agent, calendar audits, briefings, follow-ups, and reminders. Enterprise includes security review support, a DPA, SLA and priority support, and dedicated onboarding. The site displays SOC 2 Type II and ADA CASA badges. Team costs $25 a month; custom assistant email is listed at +$20/mo. The privacy policy says Howie may collect data in emails and calendars it can access, including attendee contact information.
