About
Replaceme is a native macOS agent that reads Mail, iMessage/SMS, system notifications, and upcoming Calendar events already on the Mac, then uses an AI model (Jev, via OpenRouter) to judge what needs attention and sends a single concise brief through Messages. It runs on a schedule while the Mac is awake and sends nothing on quiet days, reducing the need to keep checking every inbox and notification stream.
At a glance
Replaceme checks mail, messages and notifications on your Mac and texts you a brief when it finds something that needs attention. It is worth considering if you want scheduled triage and can share the underlying communication with hosted AI providers.
Good fit
Mac users who already use Apple Mail and Messages and would rather read an occasional brief than check both inboxes repeatedly.
Consider something else when
Skip it for confidential inboxes or if you require local-only processing. Full Disk Access is broader than the particular databases the vendor says the app reads.
Start here
Read the privacy policy before onboarding. If the access fits, try it on a Mac profile with disposable messages and check whether the brief catches one explicit deadline.
Cost and requirements
The maker lists the current version as free for macOS 14 or later. It requires Google sign-in and macOS permissions. The free plan lists one scheduled check while awake and two manual briefs per day.
Limits to know
The privacy policy says message content, addresses and calendar context can leave the Mac, and a delivered iMessage cannot be recalled. Classification, accuracy and native permission behavior were reviewed from documentation.
