Rabbit AI Agent Ditches R1 Hardware Requirement

Rabbit, the company behind the poorly received R1 device, is launching a standalone AI agent that works without its hardware. The new OS3 agentic operating system runs in the cloud while operating locally across Windows, Mac, and Linux devices. The move marks a significant shift for the startup, which faced criticism over its R1 gadget. By decoupling its software from proprietary hardware, Rabbit is repositioning itself as a platform-agnostic AI agent provider.
