Snap launches Specs Intelligence, an anticipatory AI assistant on iOS in preview with Mac early access, alongside its Specs AR glasses.

Snap introduced Specs Intelligence, an AI assistant that connects accounts like Gmail and Slack to proactively surface tasks such as meeting prep and travel planning. It is available on iOS in preview today, with a waitlisted Mac early-access experience, launching alongside Snap's first consumer AR glasses, Specs. Snap says it runs a proprietary mix of open-source models hosted in the US alongside local LLMs, and claims connected personal content will not train its models or serve personalized ads. The company must still win user trust given the assistant's broad access to personal data.
