Haven launches out of stealth with a $15M pre-seed and a "digital twin" pitch

Hello Haven, founded by Frank Addante and Duc Chau, came out of stealth on September 17, 2026 with Haven, a personal AI it calls a "digital twin," alongside a $15 million pre-seed round led by Mayfield. Haven builds a private memory graph of you, your preferences, relationships, history, and how you make decisions, then uses it to proactively handle tasks like daily briefings, inbox triage, follow-ups, placing orders, and appointment reminders across phone, text, email, voice, web, and its own app. Addante described the pitch as "Haven knows what you would do and proactively does it for you," rather than only responding when asked. The company says it has had over 2 million user interactions since a private beta that opened the month before. It's live now on the App Store, Google Play, and at my.hellohaven.ai.

Why it matters

This puts Haven in the same lane as Instinct, Muse, and Town: a personal agent that learns your patterns and acts on your behalf across all your channels rather than just answering in one app. It's new and unproven at scale, but backed by real funding and a working product you can try today, not just a pitch.
