New ‘Agentic AI’ Platform AiR Wants to Be the AI That Protects Users from AI
As artificial intelligence tools become more deeply embedded in daily life, concerns around privacy, scams, misinformation, and data security continue to grow alongside them. A new company launching next month believes the next evolution of AI may not simply be smarter assistants—but systems designed specifically to protect users from the risks AI itself creates.
AiR, short for Artificial Intelligence Response, is set to officially launch June 1 through a partnership with wireless provider Lexvor Wireless, introducing what executives describe as a secure “agentic AI” platform built directly around mobile communication.
The company positions AiR as something fundamentally different from the increasingly crowded field of AI chatbots and assistants. Rather than requiring users to download an app or create an account, AiR operates through a dedicated phone number that users can text or call directly to access their personalized AI system.
Executives behind the platform describe it internally as “the AI that protects you from AI.”
“Innovation without safety isn’t progress—it’s a risk,” Mychal Riley told IBTimes exclusively. “The world will begin to evolve faster than the human brain can process information. We need to prepare for this day and protect our privacy and security beforehand.”
The company says its infrastructure was designed with security and privacy as its core differentiators at a time when consumers are increasingly wary about how AI platforms collect, retain, and monetize personal information.
According to AiR, the platform incorporates encrypted communications, privacy controls, AI guardrails, and proactive fraud protection designed to shield users from spam calls, scam texts, phishing attempts, and suspicious online interactions.
The system also includes AI-powered spam filtering that can automatically answer and screen incoming calls on a user’s behalf.
Beyond security, AiR is attempting to push deeper into the emerging category of “agentic AI”—autonomous systems capable of performing multi-step tasks and collaborating with other AI agents in real time.
The company says users will be able to deploy personalized AI agents that can coordinate with specialized systems focused on engineering, compliance, architecture, design, and purchasing workflows. Those agents can then negotiate pricing, compare purchasing options, organize documents, and automate communications based on individual user preferences and budgets.
AiR executives believe mobile accessibility will be one of the platform’s biggest advantages globally, particularly in underserved regions where app ecosystems or high-end hardware may be less accessible.
The partnership with Lexvor Wireless is intended to lower barriers to AI adoption by making the service accessible anywhere cellular connectivity exists.
The launch comes as competition across the AI sector intensifies, with companies increasingly racing not only to build more capable systems, but also to address mounting consumer concerns over trust, privacy, and security.
AiR’s bet is that the next phase of AI may belong to platforms designed not just to assist users, but to actively protect them.
