How to get an Instinct invite

Instinct is invite-only. There is a waitlist at instinct.co, but as of September 2026 the only reliable way in is an invite from an existing member. There is no public timeline for wider access. The company cites compute constraints. Below is what actually works, and what to do in the meantime.

What works

  • Ask an existing member. Members hold invites. If you know someone who is in, that is the fastest route.
  • Reply to founders and investors posting about it on X. Some early users have handed out invites in replies. Most do not.
  • Join the waitlist at instinct.co and wait. Nobody outside the company knows how long that takes.

What does not work

  • Buying invites. Listings on resale sites are unverified and the terms prohibit transfer.
  • Invite code generators. There are none. Any site offering one is collecting your email.

While you wait

Norma is the same idea: a personal assistant that lives in iMessage and WhatsApp, no app, no new interface. The difference is that Norma has a public line, lets a new batch in every Friday in order, asks before sending or spending, and never says done until it is verified. Most people on our line are also on Instinct's.
