Developer tlxue launched Rene, a multiplayer-first iMessage agent you text like a friend—no app or signup required.
Rene has a browser, writes code, goes shopping, ships sites, and makes slides and images. The creator has used it for four months: it found him an office, preps him for meetings, and polls the team for dinner options. User HeyAmit notes the group-chat shift: instead of screenshotting ChatGPT answers, everyone can see and continue the conversation with Rene right in the thread.
