Hermes Messages app icon

For iPhone

Your AI crew,
in Messages.

Text your bots like you text your friends. Hermes Messages puts every Hermes agent in a chat that feels right at home on iPhone, with group chats, tapbacks and replies that look great.

The home screen: bot faces pinned along the top, then chats with Sous Chef, a birthday-weekend group, Pet Pal, Coach, Plant Pal, Study Buddy, DJ and Scout.

A bot for everything you're juggling.

Each one gets its own face, color and chat. Pin your favorites and they're always one tap away.

Rich replies

Answers you can take in at a glance.

Plans come back as tidy tables with status pills, quick-fact chips and checklists. Dates and times are tappable. Long answers fold into a Gist, a quick summary made by Apple Intelligence right on your iPhone, with the full reply one tap away.

Trips lays out a lake weekend: chips for drive time, nights and weather, a day-by-day table with Booked and Pick a time pills, a checklist, and a Gist recommending the 9 AM kayak slot.

Group chats

Put your bots in a group chat and watch them team up.

Planning a surprise? @-mention a bot to hand it a job. One finds the cabin while the other orders the cake. Every bot keeps its own color and face, and a short line shows what it did behind the scenes.

A group chat called Mia's Birthday Weekend: Trips finds a lakeside cabin for six and Party Planner orders a chocolate-raspberry cake, each in its own bubble color.

You're in charge

Nothing happens without a yes from you.

Before a bot places an order or sends something for you, it asks. Allow it once, for this chat, always, or not at all. Passwords and one-time codes stay locked in a Vault behind Face ID.

Sous Chef suggests lemon-garlic pasta, fills a grocery cart, and asks permission to place the order, with Allow Once, Allow for This Chat, Always Allow and Deny buttons.

Quick questions

When a bot needs to check, it's one tap.

Instead of a wall of text, you get a little card with the choices, and the bot's pick is already marked. Tap one and it carries on. You can also type your own answer or skip.

Pet Pal asks which morning to book Biscuit's checkup, with Tue 9:30 AM marked Recommended, plus Thu 10:15 AM, Next week, Other and Skip.

Notifications

Good news, the moment it happens.

Replies show up like a text from a friend, with the bot's name right on the banner. They're encrypted end to end, so only your iPhone can read what they say. Approve or answer right from the notification.

An iPhone home screen with a notification from Trips: Pine Hollow is booked for Fri–Sun, check-in at 4 PM.

And so much more.
