Hark releases an AI personal assistant with a focus on privacy
Hark Pro is being pitched as an agent that can operate your computer end-to-end, with visible task handling meant to earn trust.
The product has a full-screen interface with chat, suggested actions, and dashboard-like panels, and users can connect email, calendar, files, cards, and other accounts. In a demo, it surfaced pending expenses, emails, a meeting, and a flight booking, while Hark says its model is trained specifically for computer use. The company is leaning on privacy as a contrast with larger rivals, arguing that its user understanding is task-related rather than ad or profiling-driven. Hark also says it plans an AI-native device in 2027, though it is not saying what form that product will take. TechCrunch AI's note
