Hark, the AI company founded by Figure chief Brett Adcock, has launched Hark Pro free on the web, iOS and Android. We tour the app, decode the $20 Pro² and $100 Pro³ tiers, compare the launch with the pre-release build, and set out a first-week test plan and the checks IT teams should make.
TechCrunch’s Equity podcast asked whether Meta’s AI Tamagotchi bet is working. The app half looks strong: Muse has been No. 1 on the US App Store since 18 September, three analytics firms put downloads at 2.3 million to 4.3 million, and Apptopia says it beat ChatGPT’s first 12 days. The Muse Charm device does not ship until December. We test the numbers, compare Meta’s Threads launch, explain the transaction-fee model and score the bet against the evidence.
At Connect 2026 on 23 September, Mark Zuckerberg revealed Muse Charm, a palm-sized keychain device for talking to Meta’s Muse AI agent. It has a touchscreen of about 2 inches with a customisable animated character, a fingerprint sensor that starts a conversation, a real-time voice model and built-in 5G. It ships in time for the December holidays, with no price yet. This article covers what Meta confirmed, why reviewers compare it to a Tamagotchi, how it fits the Muse agent, the unanswered questions on price, battery and camera, the history of failed AI gadgets such as the Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1, and what businesses should watch.
BuildBetter has launched BoB, an AI agent that reads customer calls, support tickets and Slack, finds commitments and churn risks, and prepares next steps for a person to approve. We explain how its loops work, what its pay-for-outcome credits cost on each plan, what the AOT retrieval benchmark does and does not show, and how to evaluate it.
