SMS program

Text Atlas

Atlas is my personal AI assistant. It runs on my own computer and texts from one phone number on my behalf. Friends, family and people I work with can text it to reach me, find a time to meet, or ask about my projects. I'm Phone Hseng, and this page explains how to opt in and how to stop.

Text START (or JOIN) to (628) 313-2194.

Atlas replies asking you to confirm. Reply Y and you're in.

Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to opt out at any time. By opting in you agree to the SMS Terms and Privacy Policy.

What you'll get

Texts from me that I write or approve, sent through Atlas.
Replies from Atlas when you text: when I'm free or busy (times only, no details), and requests to add something to my calendar, which I approve myself before anything is booked.
Answers about my public projects, résumé, interests and the games I play, the same things on this website.

No marketing, no ads, no lending, and nothing age-restricted. Atlas never shares my private information, and your number is never sold or shared for marketing.
