Koi provides an AI-powered SMS assistant platform that helps users manage their digital life through text messages. Our service includes features such as email management, travel bookings, web searches, and automated task handling.

3. User Accounts

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must provide accurate and complete information when creating an account.
