everything you need to know about takt

What is Takt?

Takt is an AI group chat app where the AI acts as an autonomous participant rather than a tool. Instead of waiting for prompts, the AI reads the room, understands your group's dynamics, and participates naturally in conversations. It's designed to match your vibe and energy, not follow a corporate script.

How is Takt different from ChatGPT or other AI assistants?

Traditional AI assistants wait for you to ask something, then respond. Takt's AI is a participant with presence—it reads context, understands when to speak up or stay quiet, has opinions, and adapts to your group's energy. It's the difference between using a tool and having someone in the room with you.

What are private and public modes?

Every message in Takt can be either public or private. In public mode, everyone in the space sees your message and the AI's response. In private mode, only you and the AI see the exchange—other participants won't even know you asked anything. This lets you get help or process thoughts without asking out loud.

Is Takt free?

Takt is free to start — you get 100 messages on web, iOS, and Android. Create spaces, invite friends, and chat with the AI right away. No credit card needed. When you're ready for more, Takt Pro ($19.99/mo) gives you monthly credits, cross-space memory, image generation, and more. If a Pro member is in your space, everyone gets access to premium features.

What can the AI actually do?

Beyond conversation, Takt can generate and edit images, search the web for current information, process voice messages and files, react to messages with emoji, and @mention specific people. Pro users get persistent memory—the AI learns facts about you and carries them across every space.

What are the vibes?

When you create a space, you pick a vibe: Casual (for real talk, advice, and working through things) or Unfiltered (raw honesty, roasts, zero filter). From there, you can shape the AI's personality in space settings—want a devil's advocate? a hype man? just describe the vibe you're going for and the AI adapts.

How does the AI know when to respond?

Takt uses adaptive timing logic. The AI reads whether people are actively typing, if conversation is flowing or stalling, and whether someone needs help. It waits when you're in the middle of something and steps in naturally when it makes sense—like a good friend would.

Is my data private?

Yes. Private messages are only visible to you and the AI—other participants never see them. We don't sell your data to third parties, and you can delete your account and all associated data at any time. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

How do I invite people to a space?

When you create a space, you get a 6-character code. Share it with anyone you want to invite—they can join by entering the code in the app. You can also share a direct link, invite friends from your contacts, add Takt to an existing group chat via text at (646) 281-7686, or add the Takt bot to your Discord server.

What is Takt Pro?

Takt Pro is the paid tier ($19.99/mo). It gives you 2,000 monthly credits (6,000 your first month), space settings dials, cross-space memory, unlimited spaces, unlimited private messages, AI image generation, message deletion, and SMS/iMessage/Discord access. The best part: if any Pro member is in a space, everyone in that space gets access to premium features like memory, settings, and images — though everyone still manages their own messages.

What platforms is Takt available on?

Takt is available on web, iOS (iPhone/iPad), Android, and Discord. Use it instantly at takt.chat/app or download from the App Store or Google Play. You can also text Takt directly at (646) 281-7686 via iMessage or SMS, or add the Takt bot to your Discord server—no app download needed.
