The Interaction Company Of California

The Interaction Company of California (d/b/a Poke) builds Poke, a proactive AI assistant that lives in Apple Messages, WhatsApp, Telegram, and SMS. Poke texts like a human, knows the user, and integrates with their email, calendar, reminders, and dozens of apps to draft replies, reschedule meetings, pay or flag invoices, and book travel. For developers, Poke acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) client that third parties extend by connecting remote MCP servers, and it exposes a minimal HTTP API for sending messages to Poke programmatically, plus a first-party `poke` CLI/SDK (npm) and the Kitchen platform for building and publishing shareable Recipes. Founded by Marvin von Hagen and Felix Schlegel; backed by General Catalyst, Spark Capital, Village Global, Earlybird Venture Capital, and Anti Fund.
