TaglineAI project management with agents for each team.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.Meta FAIR's open-source Python library that finally bridges the gap between neuroimaging data (fMRI, EEG, spikes) and modern deep learning pipelines.Anthropic's CLI agent. Opus-powered, operates on your repo directly.

Best forSmall teams wanting AI baked into project management.iPhone power users who are frustrated that Siri is still reactive and want their home screen to actually anticipate their day.Computational neuroscience researchers who want to train deep learning models on brain recordings without building custom data pipelines from scratch.Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs.
Strengths
  • Custom AI agents per project
  • Doc + tasks + kanban in one
  • Affordable for teams
  • 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
  • Unified interface across fMRI, MEG, EEG, iEEG, fNIRS, EMG, and spike trains — no more siloed modality-specific tools
  • Lazy, memory-efficient loading that scales to terabyte-scale OpenNeuro datasets without RAM blowout
  • Native HuggingFace integration for embedding stimuli (text, audio, video) using models like DINOv2, CLIP, Wav2Vec, and more
  • Pydantic-based config validation catches bad BIDS paths or filter settings at init, not after hours of wasted compute
  • Scales from local laptop prototyping to SLURM clusters without rewriting infrastructure code
  • Runs locally, edits your actual files
  • Strong on large codebases with 1M context
  • Great at multi-step tasks
Weaknesses
  • Feature sprawl
  • AI agents need tuning to be useful
  • 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
  • Extremely niche audience — only useful to neuro-AI researchers with Python/PyTorch chops and access to neuroimaging datasets
  • No GUI or managed cloud environment; requires local setup and familiarity with BIDS data formats
  • Still a preprint-stage release with no arXiv paper yet — API stability and long-term maintenance are unproven
  • Terminal-based — learning curve
  • Can't be used without Claude subscription
Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.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.)If you're doing neuro-AI research, this is the plumbing you've been manually building for years — finally done right by the team that actually runs these experiments at scale. Extremely narrow use case, but within that lane it looks genuinely best-in-class. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
