Use Caddy with your group chats
Caddy what's a good restaurant in Soho for us to get dinner at tonight? Needs good veg options
I found a few good options. Shuka is lively with strong vegetarian mezze, Rubirosa has easy group-friendly Italian options, and Raoul’s is a tough on veg options but has an open resy tonight you could jump on
The problem
Group chats are where plans happen, but the actual reminders, research, and follow-through often get lost.
How Caddy helps
- Capture shared reminders directly from the chat.
- Research quick questions and bring back useful answers.
- Keep the tone casual so Caddy feels helpful rather than like another project tool.
Why Caddy is different
Caddy lives in Messages, so the workflow starts where you already text. It can text first when something matters, use connected tools when you allow it, and ask for approval before sensitive actions like sending email or changing calendar details.
What the workflow looks like
- 1
Add Caddy to the group chat where planning is happening.
- 2
Ask for a reminder, quick research, or summary in the same thread.
- 3
Caddy follows up with the group to help keep you organized
Texts to try
- “Caddy what's a good restaurant in Soho for dinner tonight?”
- “Remind us tomorrow to lock in weekend plans”
- “Caddy can you find some meal prep recipes for us to try this week”
Common scenarios
Plan dinner without leaving the chat
Ask Caddy for quick research, options, or reminders while everyone stays in the same thread.
Keep shared plans from getting lost

- Name who owns each follow-up when a reminder involves multiple people.
- Ask Caddy to summarize decisions after a long planning thread.
Frequently asked questions
Can Caddy access connected apps in a group chat?
No. In a group chat, Caddy only sees what is shared in that thread and will not pull in your connected app data.
What is Caddy best at in group chats?
Caddy is best for lightweight research, shared reminders, summaries, and coordination that should stay visible to the group.
