First 10 people skip the wait list
I'm opening Nexus to the first 10 people right now. No waiting: start your 7-day free trial today, and I can help you get set up by phone or email if you'd like. You'll keep $6.00 a month for as long as you're a member, even after the price goes up for new members. After that, it's back to the wait list so I can keep helping everyone personally. 10 of 10 spots left.
Nexus call screening works on Android and iPhone. People in your contacts ring like normal. Most callers you don't know talk to a friendly automated assistant first, which asks who's calling and why. Real callers are put through or leave a voicemail you can read, and numbers on the spam list are refused.
Nexus is private and invite-only. Claim a spot below, and your invite is emailed to you right away.

How it works
- People in your contacts ring your phone as normal. Nexus never blocks them.
- Most other callers talk to an automated assistant first. It tells them the call is being screened, then asks who's calling and why.
- Real callers are put through to you, or leave a voicemail you can read as text.
- Numbers on the spam list are refused, and most callers you don't know are asked who they are before your phone rings.

Who it's for
- Anyone tired of scam calls and robocalls. Your phone rings for people you know and for real callers, so you can answer it again.
- Older parents, and the family who worry about them. Callers they don't know talk to the assistant, not to them, and voicemail arrives as text they can read. A family member can help with setup.
- Small businesses run from a cell phone. New customers are numbers you don't know, so they talk to the assistant first, then ring through or leave a message. Numbers on the spam list are refused, so they don't interrupt your day.
What you need
- An Android phone or an iPhone. On Android, you install the Nexus app from this site. On iPhone, setup uses your phone's own settings.
- Call forwarding from your phone company. Setup has the codes built in for AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, Cricket, Metro by T-Mobile, Mint Mobile, Visible, Xfinity Mobile, US Mobile (Dark Star / AT&T network) and US Mobile (Light Speed / T-Mobile network). On another carrier? Choose Another carrier. Most phone companies can turn forwarding on during one short call, and the guide tells you what to say.
- Your own number stays yours. A separate Nexus number is included, and a step-by-step guide walks you through setup.
Calls with no caller ID, shown as "No Caller ID" or "Unknown", are refused. If a doctor's office calls that way, ask them to call from a number that shows.
Your privacy
- Callers are told the call is being screened and may be transcribed. Anthropic's Claude AI reads what they say, to decide what to do with the call.
- The person running this service can't read your voicemail or hear what callers said.
- Spam numbers caught on more than one person's line are blocked for everyone, along with numbers from public FTC complaints. Only the number is shared, never what was said.
- Your wait list details are only used to invite you, and are deleted after 6 months if you haven't been invited.
