About 1 month ago I am using The Librarian as my personal assistant on WhatsApp, and it opened my eyes to how much time I used to waste on small tasks, such as checking emails, juggling calendars, hunting through Drive. Now, the first thing I see each morning is a concise Brief that maps out my day: meetings, priorities, even warnings if appointments clash. It feels like having a secretary whoβs been up since dawn preparing my schedule. The real magic for me is the WhatsApp chat. I can drop an image, files, or quick voice note and just tell it, for a few seconds later my Google Calendar is perfectly updated without touching my laptop. Even when I forget a file name, I just type it and the Drive link pops right up. The crazy things is the more I use it, the smarter it gets; it already remembers my default Zoom room and favorite email signβoff, so every drafted reply feels effortlessly personal. What i loved is The Librarian has turned my phone into a genuinely efficient mobile office, letting me focus on what matters instead of repetitive admin. I really love this tools, thank you so much The Librarian teams!

The Greetings
A big hello to all Product Hunters out there! π My name is Tiago and I'm the CEO of TheLibrarian.io. We're really excited to make our debut in Product Hunt and hope that you will give our WhatsApp AI Assistant a try. Also looking forward to reply to any questions or feedback, even if negative, as that's the only way we can improve.
The Pain
I'm someone who hates inefficiencies, so I was blown away when I came across research by IDC and McKinsey where it was concluded that professionals spend ~60% of their work week in peripheral tasks (eg Email, Searching for Info, Scheduling / Attending Meetings) leaving only ~40% for Role-specific Tasks.
The Solution
So my Team and I took the challenge of changing the status quo. After almost a year of very hard work, we're proud to introduce TheLibrarian.io to the world. It's a ππ‘πππ¬ππ©π© ππ ππ¬π¬π’π¬πππ§π designed to help you Master Your Inbox, Control Your Schedule, and Find Anything You Need - so you can focus on what truly matters.
It seamlessly integrates with all your ππ¨π¨π π₯π ππ©π©π¬ (ππ¦ππ’π₯, ππ«π’π―π, πππ₯ππ§πππ«, ππ¨π§πππππ¬), ππ₯πππ€, ππ§π ππ¨ππ’π¨π§ with Apple and Microsoft coming soon, driven by user demand.
The Features
TheLibrarian.io does much more than sending emails, scheduling meetings, or retrieving files and messages, but here are some of the things our users love and cannot live without:
1. Morning Briefs: start your day with a clear, concise overview of whatβs ahead. Your meetings, tasks, and prioritiesβall in one place.
2. Voice Commands: whether youβre driving or walking, simply tap the mic button on WhatsApp and dictate your instructions.
3. Memories & Facts: it remembers everything about you, from your home to the office addresses, default Zoom link, email signature, and more.
The Pricing
TheLibrarian.io is 100% free to use with some Advanced Premium features (eg multiple accounts, customised email signatures) planned for later this year.
The Security
We're Google CASA Certified with robust data encryption (both in transit and at rest) and stringent privacy controls to protect all user interactions and data. More info available here.
The Feedback
When building a new tool, embracing all feedback, even the negative, is essential. So please do not hesitate to leave a comment here or, if you prefer, to send an email to support@thelibrarian.io - we would love to hear from you!

@kui_jason thank you so much for the review. Yes, we think that WhatsApp can be a great channel to get stuff done while on the go or away from the computer without having to open any apps. Would love to have you as a user and give me some honest and constructive feedback? I have to agree that the Morning Briefs have a huge success with our users and the Voice Commands have been growing on me and I use it more and more. Even for a corner use case which is, when someone sends me a voice message on WhatsApp now I just forward it to TheLibrarian and ask it to summarise what the person said. π
