What Maxi does with your messages
Source: its published policy, read 2026-09-25. Its words are quoted, never paraphrased.
Whose hands it passes through
Somebody carries the message, somebody runs the model that reads it, and where the agent uses a website on your behalf somebody operates that browser. A blank below is not an absence of a company, it is a company nobody has named.
- iMessage
- Thread Inc.
- Linq
- OpenAI, Anthropic
- Not named
- United States only, 18 and over. Thread Inc. is registered in Delaware, with state rights named for California, Virginia, Colorado and Connecticut.
In its own words
“We store only the contact's name. The contact's phone number stays on your device and is used only to send your payment request. We do not upload or store your contact list, and we never use contact data for advertising.”
What it does not answer
Each of these is a question some policies in this directory answer. The count is how many of the 79 we have read close it.
- whether it trains on your conversations
- where to report a hole
Silence is not a denial and it is not a promise. A document that does not address the people in your group thread has not agreed to anything about them.
How old this document is
Maxi last revised it on 2026-06-30, which was 87 days before we read it. 71 of the 79 policies here carry a revision date at all; the rest do not say when they were last changed, so there is no way to tell whether they describe the product as it ships today.
We have read it 2 times and it has changed once since we started watching, most recently on 2026-09-25. What changed, sentence by sentence.
