A crew is just your group chat with Folk in it. Add Folk to an iMessage or Telegram group and it becomes the friend in the thread that actually plans things: it reads the chaos, finds a night that works, books the table, and sends everyone the details.

How do I add Folk to a group chat?

Add Folk's phone number to the group like you'd add any other person, or add the bot to a Telegram group. Nobody else has to sign up or download anything - Folk just shows up in the thread you already use.

Does Folk read everything in my group chat?

Folk sees the thread it was added to, the same as any member. What's said in a group stays scoped to that group: Folk won't leak your personal memory into the group, and it won't carry the group's chatter back into your private chat.

Will Folk butt into every conversation?

No. In a group Folk stays quiet until someone tags it or clearly asks for something. It's there for the moment the thread says "we should" and nobody follows through, not to narrate your conversation.

Can Folk plan group trips and find a time everyone is free?

Yes. That's the messy coordination it's built for: reading everyone's availability, finding the one night the whole group is free, picking a spot within budget, booking it, and sending the plan out - instead of fifty messages of back-and-forth and a doodle poll nobody fills in.

Does Folk book things without asking?

No. Folk proposes, someone in the group confirms, and only then does it book. Anything that spends money or sends an invite needs an explicit yes first.

Does the group get its own memory?

Yes. When group memory is on, Folk remembers durable facts and decisions for that room, separate from anyone's personal memory. Membership is the access boundary: people in the room can use it, and leaving cuts off access.

Start free - text Folk on iMessage or Telegram to try it. Folk Pro is $20/month and Folk Max is $100/month. Regional pricing is available in select markets.
