Autonomy AI Founded to Build Proactive AI Agents That Act Autonomously
BOSTON, MA – October 1, 2025 – Today marks the official founding of Autonomy AI™, a new artificial intelligence company with a singular focus: building AI systems that act proactively, not reactively.
While most AI companies build chatbots and assistants that wait for user prompts, Autonomy AI is pioneering a new category: proactive AI agents that continuously monitor the world, make autonomous decisions, and take action at exactly the right moment.
The Problem with Reactive AI
"Every AI tool on the market today is fundamentally reactive," said Bryan Mathews, Founder and Engineer at Autonomy AI. "You open ChatGPT, type a prompt, wait for a response. You check a price tracker, see a chart, decide for yourself. The cognitive load is still on you."
"We're building the opposite: AI that watches, predicts, and notifies you only when action is needed. Your phone rings because a price dropped. Your receptionist answers calls while you sleep. That's proactive AI."
Two Products Launching
Autonomy AI is launching with two flagship products in 2025:
Autonomy Receptionist™ – An AI phone assistant for small businesses that answers calls 24/7, routes intelligently, takes messages, and books appointments autonomously. No more missed calls. No more voicemail.
Autonomy PricePulse™ – An AI price-timing advisor that monitors millions of product prices, predicts optimal buy windows using historical data and machine learning, and alerts shoppers via voice, SMS, or email when it's time to buy.
Both products share a common architecture: continuous monitoring, intelligent decision-making, and proactive alerting—powered by production-grade infrastructure built for speed, reliability, and scale.
Solo Founder, Technical Focus
Autonomy AI is the product of a single founding engineer committed to shipping fast and iterating faster. No bureaucracy. No meetings. Just code, customers, and constant improvement.
"I'm not trying to raise a $50M Series A or hire 100 people," Mathews added. "I'm building products I'd use myself—AI that actually saves time instead of requiring more of it. That means ruthless focus, clean code, and real customer value from day one."
Technology Stack
Autonomy AI products are built on a modern, serverless infrastructure stack:
- AI: OpenAI GPT-4 for language understanding, Deepgram for voice transcription
- Backend: Next.js 15, TypeScript, Vercel Functions, Prisma, PostgreSQL
- Telephony: Twilio for voice/SMS
- Monitoring: Datadog, Sentry for production observability
- Payments: Stripe for subscriptions and billing
All systems are designed for sub-2-second response times, 24/7 reliability, and horizontal scalability.
What's Next
Both products are currently in beta with early customers. Autonomy Receptionist will open to all small businesses in Q4 2025, with PricePulse following shortly after.
"We're not building demos," Mathews concluded. "We're building production AI that people trust with real phone calls and real purchase decisions. That's the bar."
