Hark releases an AI personal assistant with a focus on privacy
Startup Hark has launched 'Hark Pro,' an AI personal assistant designed to operate as a computer interface with a focus on user privacy. The tool aims to automate digital tasks by integrating with a user's email, calendar, and files.
Why it matters
This represents a shift in AI development toward 'agentic' software that performs actions on behalf of users, signaling a new phase in personal computing.
From Muse to Instinct to Dots, tech firms are hunting for the user experience that will make an AI personal assistant a must-have product.
Hark , a start-up founded less than a year ago by serial founder Brett Adcock is throwing its hat in the ring today with the wide release of Hark Pro. Users can access the service for free, with a subscription tier for heavy users.
The company sees its mission as building a user interface for AI, not creating AGI or curing cancer. The foundation is a model trained specifically for computer use, and that’s what Hark Pro does—it uses your computer for you.
