Hark Pro launches privacy-focused AI computer assistant

Hark, a startup founded less than a year ago by serial founder Brett Adcock, has released Hark Pro, an AI personal assistant that operates your computer on your behalf. The full-screen app connects to email, calendars, and financial accounts to handle tasks proactively, while showing users a live window of the agent's web activity to build trust. Hark distinguishes itself from rivals by emphasizing privacy, claiming it does not sell data or build ad profiles. The company also plans to release an AI-native hardware device in 2027, though details remain undisclosed.
