Molu

The vision

A world where technology is created to enhance the happiness of people.

Technology should help people live better and happier lives. It should work for us, know us, and take responsibilities off our hands. That is what we are building: technology that gives you time back for what you love, the calm to be present with the people you love, and the freedom to live a better and happier life.

Your life runs on responsibilities. Insurance, energy, broadband, subscriptions, memberships, claims, renewals, deadlines, the paperwork of a household. They are the things you never wanted to do in your life. They are difficult and unpleasant: they demand that you foresee, remember and follow up, on top of the doing itself. Nearly one in three adults in the UK spends more than two hours a week on this. And handing a task to another person does not remove it: you keep watching whether it got done.

So far, technology has been built to take your attention and keep it; its business depends on you looking. We build the opposite. Molu only works when you can look away.

Most of what exists today is built around a task: you ask, it does it once, and it is yours to carry again. Molu is built around a state that should remain true. You hand over a responsibility once, for example "make sure I always have the right insurance", and Molu keeps it true from then on: it watches, compares, communicates with suppliers, acts only with your approval, verifies, and keeps watching. The unit of value is the responsibility, not the task.

Our mission is to make sure the value and abundance created by AI accrues to the individual.

Trust is the product. Molu is paid by you and never by a supplier: no supplier revenue, no ads, no commissions, no paid placement. Every supplier in a market is asked, regardless of whether they would like to pay; money can never buy visibility, only friction reduction. Before money moves or anything is hard to reverse, Molu asks. Everything it does leaves a receipt you can read.

Taken to its full consequence, you get to put the phone down. Every responsibility you hand over removes a reason to check. The pings, the tabs and the quiet dread of the inbox thin out, until technology asks for one look a day, and the rest of the day belongs to the people in front of you.

Molu is where we start. Responsibilities are endless.

Be happy. Be free.

The experience

There is no app to learn. You just write to Molu.

Molu works from any chat you already use. You write once, Molu does the work in the background, and it writes back when something has actually happened.

Make sure I always have the right insurances.

I will get right on that.

I have done the market research and been in touch with several insurers. You can see the results of the analysis here. See the analysis

In short: you should switch to Alpha Insurance. It gives you better coverage and saves you money. Let me know if you want more detail, or if you want me to go ahead and switch you.

You said what should stay true. Molu found out what the market offers, spoke to the insurers, and came back with one recommendation and the reasons. Nothing changes until you say yes. When you do, Molu makes the switch, confirms it, and keeps watching so it stays right.

Other things you can hand over

This is where we are going. The first version starts with what you pay for.

Tell it once. It stays handled.
