What it is
Lindy is an AI teammate you brief in plain English through Slack, iMessage or email. It handles inbox, calendar, meeting notes, CRM updates and scheduled reports across 1,000+ connected tools, and can use a browser or computer for apps without an integration.
What the AI does
- Agents built from plain-English instructions
- Computer use and browser automation
- Meeting recording and searchable notes
- Inbox triage and drafts in your voice
- 40+ pre-built skills and editable memory
Pros and cons
- No workflow diagrams; you describe the job and it builds the agent
- Works where you already talk: Slack, iMessage, email
- Computer use covers apps without an API
- SOC 2 Type II; data not used for training
- Credit burn is hard to predict and credits do not roll over
- No free plan, only a 7-day trial
- SSO, HIPAA and audit logs only on Enterprise
How it scores
Very easy for personal and admin automation; unpredictable credit costs hold back value.
