Personalized, Proactive, and Private! Excited for the launch of Ario!
Two big announcements from Ario today! First, we closed a $16M seed (thank you Bain Capital Ventures Floodgate Moxxie Ventures and Wing Venture Capital!) Second, we just launched the open beta for our AI Assistant. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of apps out there calling themselves your “assistant.” Here’s what makes Ario different: ***Personalized*** Ario uses all of the information it knows about you (both from what you’ve told it in the past as well as data from the apps you connect) to complete each task ***Proactive*** Ario does things without you having to explicitly ask, just like a human assistant! ***Private*** When you connect your different apps to Ario, Ario only ever uses that info to serve you. That data is never sold, and it’s not used to train the company’s ML models. Ario has only been live for a couple of months, and I’ve gotten to see first-hand how hundreds of users, especially parents, have benefited. A big thank you to everyone who has supported us in getting this far, we are just getting started!! You can try out the iOS app at heyario.com
Great to see innovation in personalization. How does Ario ensure privacy?
