Tagline	AI project management with agents for each team.	Chinese open-weight powerhouse. Crazy cheap, genuinely smart.	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.
Category	Productivity	Chatbots	Agents	Research
Pricing	Free + $8-$20/user/mo	Free web + ultra-cheap API (~$0.14/M input tokens)	Waitlist / Beta (pricing not yet disclosed)	Free + $20/mo Pro
Best for	Small teams wanting AI baked into project management.	Developers + cost-conscious builders. Anyone fine with self-hosting.	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.
Strengths	Custom AI agents per project Doc + tasks + kanban in one Affordable for teams	Open weights you can self-host Strong reasoning + math Near-free API pricing DeepSeek-V3 / R1 are serious models	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
Weaknesses	Feature sprawl AI agents need tuning to be useful	Data goes to servers in China — privacy concerns for business use Chinese policy filters English polish trails Western models	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
Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.	S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.	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.
