The Answering Machine
Built at Cartesia x Anthropic Voice Agents Hackathon hosted by Notion · Feb 7, 2026 · San Francisco, CA
A vision of a screen-free voice-first family. Kids can get their questions answered by talking to the answering machine; a context aware AI that lives inside of a retro phone. Parents can check in on their kids interests. And in the background an agent uses Browser Use to place holds on books the kids are interested in.
