Never miss a birthday again

Forgetting a birthday feels worse than almost any other forgotten thing — and it happens to everyone since we stopped memorizing dates. Facebook only knows the friends who listed it; your calendar only knows what you typed into a form.

Poko takes birthdays as a text message and reminds you every year, on WhatsApp — which is exactly where you'll send the wish anyway.

One text per person, covered for life

Text each birthday once with “every year” and the date. Poko messages you when it comes around — this year and every year after.

For people you want to buy gifts for, add a second reminder a few days early. Two texts, and you're the friend who never forgets and never scrambles.

The reminder arrives where the wish gets sent

The neat part of birthday reminders on WhatsApp: the reminder and the birthday wish live in the same app. Poko's message lands, and the person's chat is two taps away. No copying dates between apps, no “I saw the calendar notification this morning and then forgot by evening.”

Anniversaries, festivals, and every other date that repeats

Anything yearly works the same way: wedding anniversaries, work anniversaries, renewal dates, the day you adopted your dog. If it comes once a year and matters to you, one text puts it on autopilot.

Questions, answered

Will it remind me every year or just once?
Say “every year” and it repeats forever. Without it, it's a one-time reminder.
Can I see all the birthdays I've saved?
Send “list” and Poko shows everything pending, birthdays included. “cancel N” removes one.
Can I get reminded a few days before the birthday?
Yes — add a second reminder on an earlier date, like “buy Priya's gift every year on May 8” for a May 12 birthday.
Does Pokobot read my contacts to find birthdays?
No. Poko can't see your contacts, chats, or anything else — he only knows the reminders you text him.

Be the one who always remembers.
