AnyxKey takeaways
- Anyx emails you a private note of each group's decisions, unanswered questions and action items, and never posts it in the group.
- In the group, Anyx replies when someone tags @Anyx, and your reminders stay in your private chat.
- On Pro and Max, a routine can run for a group, such as a weekly check-in that every member sees.
- Family, school and community groups should be told first, and any member may object.
An AI assistant in a personal WhatsApp group keeps track of what the group decided, who promised what and which questions went unanswered, so you don’t have to scroll back. With Anyx, you get that as a private email note, can tag @Anyx with a question, and set reminders in your private chat. Here are 10 fictional examples.
Disclosure: this is the Anyx blog. Every group, name and message below is fictional.
What can an AI assistant do in a personal group?
Anyx is an AI agent that works inside WhatsApp. In your personal groups it does four things:
- Emails you a note. Add Anyx to a group you manage, tag it once from your own number, and tell the members (setup guide). You then get one note per group by email, every 24 hours by default. Sections include Needs your attention, Decisions, Unanswered, Action items and Forgotten / no follow-up. Notes are never posted to the group. To read one in WhatsApp, open it in your account and tap Send to my WhatsApp.
- Answers when tagged. Tag
@Anyxwith a question about the chat, and it replies in the group, for everyone to see. - Reminds you privately. In your private chat, ask for a reminder once or on a schedule. Anyx is set up to confirm the details before it saves one.
- Runs a routine for a group, on Pro and Max. For example, a Sunday check-in that every member sees (routines).
What does that look like in 10 personal groups?
A trip with friends
ProblemEight friends, one villa, 300 messages. Nobody remembers who is renting the car.
What to send@Anyx what is still open for the trip?
ResultAn answer in the group, and a note with the villa under Decisions and the car under Unanswered.
Family coordination
ProblemThree siblings take turns hosting Friday dinner, and swaps get lost.
What to sendEvery Wednesday at 19:00, ask the family group who is hosting Friday dinner.
NeedsPro or Max, for a group routine
ResultOnce you confirm it, the question goes to the group weekly. Everyone sees it, so agree on it first.
School parents
ProblemForty parents, one class. The trip form deadline got buried under birthday wishes.
ResultIf you manage the group, a daily note with Needs your attention and Unanswered. Think twice before adding recipients: the note can mention other families.
A shared home
ProblemFour flatmates promised to split the internet bill. Nobody followed up.
What to sendRemind me on the 1st of every month to pay my share of the rent.
ResultThe bill split shows up under Forgotten / no follow-up, and the monthly reminder comes to your private chat, not the group.
A home renovation
ProblemThe contractor, the electrician and your partner all reply in voice notes.
ResultVoice notes are transcribed, so the tile decision reaches the note. If nobody gave the electrician a date, the due date stays empty instead of guessed.
A big birthday
ProblemPlanning Maya's 40th: venue, guest list and who brings what, spread over three weeks.
ResultBefore the final call, create one note for all three weeks with Generate notes for a date range.
Volunteering
ProblemA food bank rota where Friday shifts go unfilled because the request scrolled away.
What to sendEvery Sunday at 9:00, ask the volunteers group who can cover this week's shifts.
NeedsPro or Max, for a group routine
ResultThe request goes out on schedule, and your note shows who offered to cover which shift.
A sports club
ProblemAn amateur basketball team where the game time changed twice in one evening.
What to send@Anyx what time is Saturday's game now?
ResultAnyx answers in the group from the messages it has, so everyone sees the same answer.
A study group
ProblemFive students split the exam chapters in a flurry of voice notes.
ResultAction items list who took which chapter, with a due date where someone said one. Open questions carry forward until the group resolves them.
A community project
ProblemA building committee is collecting quotes to paint the stairwell, and a neighbor offered her painter's discount.
ResultDecisions shows what the residents agreed, Opportunities catches the discount, and Worth checking may ask whether everyone saw the final quote.

What does tagging @Anyx look like?
In the trip group, someone asks and Anyx answers in the group. The next note sorts the same items into sections, by email.

Should you tell the group before you add Anyx?
Yes. Anyx is a member of the group, so it receives what everyone writes. The docs ask you to connect only groups you administer and to let the members know. In personal groups, that matters even more:
- Family groups mix plans with private news. Ask before, not after.
- School-parent groups include parents you barely know, writing about their children. If you don’t manage the group, don’t add Anyx.
- Community groups, such as a building committee or a club, are semi-public. Expect some members to object.
If someone objects, listen, and be ready to remove Anyx or leave that group out. Then post a short message, like this one from the setup guide:
I added Anyx, an AI assistant, to this group. It helps me keep track of decisions and open items and sends me a private summary. It does not post summaries here, and it only replies in the group when someone tags @Anyx.
If you add a group routine, say that it will post scheduled messages. More questions to ask first are in our privacy checklist.
What does it cost for personal groups?
Anyx is a paid product, and plans are counted by groups:
| Plan | Price | Groups | Routine for a group |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $35 a month | Up to 4 | No |
| Pro | $60 a month | Up to 30 | Yes |
| Max | $120 a month | Up to 120 | Yes |
Yearly is 20% cheaper. New subscribers get a 7-day free trial, and checkout asks for a card. If you have one quiet family group, you probably don’t need it. It makes more sense when several busy groups compete for your attention.
What are the limits?
- It only knows what it saw. Anyx only sees chats it is part of, from the moment it joined. Calls and in-person plans are missing.
- It is not instant. The first note is processed on an upcoming scheduled run. No messages in an interval means no email.
- Files are partial. Voice notes are transcribed. For photos and documents, Anyx uses what it can read, such as captions.
- Recipients see the whole note, including Worth checking.
- It stores group messages. While Anyx is in a group, it stores that group’s messages. Pausing or removing it does not delete stored data; deletion is by request to support@anyx.app. Anyx does not train AI models on your data.
FAQ

Do I need to tell the group before I add Anyx?
Yes. Connect only groups you manage, and tell the members what Anyx does and where the notes go. In family, school and community groups, members may object. If they do, listen, and be ready to remove Anyx.
