Snap announced Specs Intelligence, an 'anticipatory AI' assistant that connects accounts such as Gmail and Slack to proactively surface tasks like meeting prep and travel planning, building an understanding of user goals and routines. It works with iPhones and Macs independently of the glasses, is available on iOS in preview now, and reaches Macs via a waitlisted early-access experience. 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 — though the assistant's broad access to personal data means the company must still win user trust. The announcement accompanies updates to Specs, Snap's first consumer AR glasses, which launched earlier in 2026 at $2,200 to a mixed reception. Snap also launched Specs for Enterprise targeting IT workflows with device management and security controls, with partnerships including Amazon, Salesforce, and Nvidia; an NBA/WNBA AR training app; HBO Max and Spotify integrations; and Verizon cellular connectivity costing $10/month for Verizon customers and $20/month otherwise. The devices ship later this fall after an October pop-up in Los Angeles.
