What the Tend text service is
You text Tend the things you want on your calendar, like “dentist Thursday at 3,” a forwarded school email or a photo of a flyer. Tend reads it, texts you back to confirm the details, adds it to your calendar once you say yes, and tells you when it is done. The service is still in development and is only open to invited customers during early access. Tend is operated by Mason Capalongo, a sole proprietor, until the company is formed.
How you opt in
You join Tend’s texts by texting JOIN to (845) 448-2636 after you have been invited to early access. Tend replies once to confirm you are signed up. Tend only signs up invited customers, and it does not reply to anything except HELP until you text JOIN.
We will not text you before you opt in. You never have to agree to texts to buy anything.
What messages you will get
