Rabbit's new OS lives in the cloud and borrows your laptop to get things done

Rabbit’s new OS lives in the cloud and borrows your laptop to get things done Rabbit, the Santa Monica company that makes the r1 handheld, released OS3, an agentic operating system. It runs in Rabbit’s cloud and operates a user’s computers through a local agent that installs with one command. The user states a goal in a chat, and OS3 picks the device, then works desktop software, local files and web pages, or writes and runs code, to complete the task.

One account can connect up to five devices, including Windows, Mac and Linux PCs, cloud virtual machines, dedicated AI computers and the r1. Anyone who installs the agent gives software that takes orders from a chat window direct control of that machine, and the content each task needs passes through Rabbit’s servers on its way to an AI model .
