Most AI assistants sit there, cursor blinking, waiting for you to type something. [Lindy](https://www.lindy.ai) flips that entire dynamic on its head. With the launch of Lindy 3.0, the team behind it — led by Flo Crivello — has built something that genuinely feels like having a sharp, tireless executive assistant who already knows what you need before you ask.
Here’s what actually happens: you connect your inbox and calendar (takes about two minutes, seriously), and Lindy just starts doing things. Your email gets triaged before your first sip of coffee. Meeting prep notes show up in your inbox with context pulled from past emails and conversations. After calls, follow-up drafts are already waiting for you. Action items don’t slip through the cracks anymore because Lindy catches them automatically. The claim is two hours saved per day, and honestly, for anyone drowning in meetings and email, that sounds about right.
What makes Lindy 3.0 different from earlier versions is what they call “agentic reasoning.” The agents don’t just respond — they figure out what needs to happen, interact with your tools, and execute. They can navigate browsers, work with thousands of apps, and even correct their own mistakes without you stepping in. There’s also [Gaia](https://www.lindy.ai/blog/gaia-announcement), their voice agent that can make and receive phone calls autonomously. Think customer support calls, appointment scheduling, sales outreach — all handled by an AI that sounds natural and responds in under a second.
The launch caught fire on [Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/products/lindy), racking up hundreds of upvotes and strong community buzz. Kyle Poyar picked it up in his Substack column [“The AI assistant that works before you ask”](https://kp.substack.com/p/the-ai-assistant-that-works-before), calling out the shift from “prompting better” to “delegating better.” That framing nails it — this isn’t about crafting the perfect prompt. It’s about letting go and trusting the agent to handle the grunt work.
Is it perfect? Probably not for highly custom, multi-step workflows yet. But for the daily grind of email, meetings, and scheduling, Lindy 3.0 feels like a real step toward AI that actually works *for* you, not just *with* you. Worth trying the [free trial](https://www.lindy.ai) to see if it clicks with your workflow.
