Jarvie is a sidekick you text, and its own FAQ answers "how do I start" with "text Jarvie and say hi". The number is published on the front page with a prefilled first message, which is the lowest-friction arrival recorded here. Adding it to a group is the second route rather than the only one: the site's own tabs cover family, trips, friends, a couple, a work team, roommates and one-to-one.
What it says it does is narrower than the pitch suggests. Its FAQ lists daily reminders, making images, finding restaurants and looking things up. It does not claim to book anything, so booking is not recorded here, and the capability was removed on a re-read rather than left standing.
Price is published, which puts it in the minority: free today, with paid tiers promised for more complex tasks and a commitment that the price is shown before any charge.
The policy is worth reading for what it does not say. Message content and context go to third-party AI providers and it does not name them. It says anonymized answers may be used to improve the product, which is the closest it comes to the training question and is why the row here reads as a qualified answer rather than a yes or a no. It is unusually direct about everybody else in the thread, though: what Jarvie remembers "can include details about people you bring up", which is the plainest statement on that subject in this directory.
Behind the brand is an older company. The policy states that Jarvie is operated by All Day Technologies, Inc., and Ken Chong co-founded All Day Kitchens, a ghost-kitchen operator whose $65M Series C in 2021 was led by Lightspeed. Lightspeed is in Jarvie's $8.3M seed too, alongside Andreessen Horowitz and Base10, announced 23 June 2026. What the relationship between the two All Day entities is, neither company says.
The brand itself is new. heyjarvie.com was registered on 26 May 2026 and the X account opened the same day.
One small thing, found while recording the number. The Get Jarvie button on the front page points at sms:+13109266840&body=Hey%20Jarvie, with an ampersand where every other published link in this directory has a question mark. The ? is what separates the number from the message, and without it the body can be read as part of the address. That is malformed under RFC 5724, which opens the field list with a question mark, so without one the message text sits inside the recipient. Apple has historically been lenient about this and nothing else is, so the link is not recorded as working here and the number is given instead.
