AI reminders that text you
Text Caddy what you need to remember and when. It saves the reminder, keeps the useful context, and texts you when it is due.
Remind me Sunday at 6 to sort out next week’s school dates
I’ll text you Sunday at 6.
Time to sort out next week’s school dates. I can add them from the school email.
Yes, add the dates from Friday’s school email to my calendar
Added Wednesday’s parent evening at 6 and Friday’s half day at noon.
The problem
A reminder is not useful if you forget to enter it, lose the reason behind it, or stop noticing alerts from another task app.
How Caddy helps
- Set one-time or recurring reminders in ordinary language.
- Keep useful context from the conversation or an app you connected.
- Reply to the reminder and ask Caddy to handle the next step, such as adding dates or sending an email.
Why Caddy is different
You do not have to open a reminder app and hope you check it later. Tell Caddy once, then get a clear text at the useful moment with enough context to act.
What the workflow looks like
- 1
Text Caddy the thing you need to remember and when it should happen.

Texts to try
- “Remind me Sunday at 6 to sort out the school dates for next week.”
