Tagline	An agentic iPhone home screen that replaces your static icon grid with AI widgets that proactively surface health, calendar, finance, and local context — without you having to open a single app.	AI search done right. Cited answers, not chat theater.	YouTube's Gemini-powered conversational search lets you ask natural language questions and get answers drawn from videos, Shorts, and the web — without ever leaving the platform.	Spreadsheets with AI + live integrations baked in.
Category	Agents	Research	Research	Data
Pricing	Waitlist / Beta (pricing not yet disclosed)	Free + $20/mo Pro	Included with YouTube Premium ($13.99/mo); expanding to some free users	Free + $19-$89/user/mo
Best for	iPhone power users who are frustrated that Siri is still reactive and want their home screen to actually anticipate their day.	Replacing Google for any question where you want a cited answer in seconds.	YouTube heavy users who want to discover content through conversation rather than keyword guessing, especially for learning, research, or planning-style queries.	Ops teams, marketers, anyone building dashboards from multiple sources.
Strengths	Ambient, proactive intelligence delivered via native iOS widgets — no app-switching required Cross-domain context: health, calendar, email, finances, and local recommendations in one layer Works within iOS permission model (no jailbreak or sideloading), making App Store approval plausible Strong pre-launch signal: 25k+ waitlist and backing from a16z, True Ventures, and SV Angel	Sources every claim Fast, current answers Pro Search runs multi-step research Spaces for persistent context	Searches across long-form videos, Shorts, and text in a single conversational query Draws on real-time data from both YouTube content and the broader web Deeply integrated into YouTube's existing search bar — zero context-switching required Supports follow-up/refinement questions within the same session Powered by Google Gemini, the same LLM backbone as Google's AI Mode in Search	Pull live data from Stripe, Slack, Google Analytics, etc. AI functions inside cells Modern UX
Weaknesses	Still pre-launch / beta — zero proven track record and no public pricing yet iPhone-only by design, which immediately locks out half the smartphone market Battery drain and privacy concerns from constant ambient context scanning are real and unresolved	Not a general chatbot Answers can be shallow on complex topics	Still a limited test — US Premium subscribers only, with no firm global timeline Raises real creator-traffic concerns: AI answers may reduce clicks to actual videos No standalone value — entirely dependent on having a YouTube Premium subscription	Not a full Excel replacement for heavy users Integrations best on paid tiers
Kai's verdict	The concept is genuinely compelling — turning the home screen into a living AI layer is a smarter bet than yet another chat interface — but this is vaporware until it ships publicly and we see whether Apple's sandbox lets it breathe. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)	S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.	A genuinely interesting evolution of video search that could make YouTube feel more like a knowledge engine, but it's still early-stage, US-locked, and paywalled behind Premium — watch this space rather than rerouting your workflow around it yet. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)	A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.
