- **Company stage** `documented` — Series A [5]
- **Disclosed funding** `documented` — US$700M+ · Series A · May 2026 [5]

## What it can do

*What this agent can actually operate — a machine of its own, yours, or neither. Computer control is three separate questions, and most products answer only some of them.*

- **What stands out** `documented` — Action Buttons handle suggested chores in one tap; custom Panels are mini-apps built inside Hark. [1]
- **Computer use** `limited` (partial or conditional only) — Handoff runs on a personal cloud computer; published workflows focus on websites, not local desktop control. [3]
- **Controls your computer** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Its own computer** `documented` — A personal cloud computer runs Handoff tasks. Whether you can watch its screen is not specified. [3]
- **Works while your computer is off** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Browser control** `documented` — Full cloud browser can sign in, complete forms, and place orders. [1]
- **Voice & ambient listening** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Background work & triggers** `documented` — Scheduled tasks and reusable Specialties [1]

## Apps & access

*Where you reach it and on what. A messaging integration is not a native app, so the two are tracked apart; an app listed here is a real first-party client.*

- **Native desktop apps** `limited` (partial or conditional only) — Web app on desktop; the product lists no native desktop app. [4]
- **iPhone & Android apps** `documented` — Native iOS and Android apps. [4]
- **Web & messaging** `documented` — Hark app and web [1]
- **Messaging services** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Native hardware** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Developer API** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".

## Models & plans

*What you pay and what runs underneath. Where an agent is bundled into a larger subscription, the price shown is that subscription's — there is no separate fee for the agent.*

- **Models & providers** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Bring your own model** `documented` — Service includes model usage; free and paid plans differ in usage allowance. BYO keys are not listed. [2]
- **Included in another plan** `documented` — Standalone Hark subscription: free tier and paid usage upgrades. [2]
- **Price & usage costs** `documented` — Free usage cap; $20 / $100 monthly tiers increase usage [2]

## Vendor lock-in

*How hard it is to leave, and what survives if the company does. Almost no hosted vendor publishes a shutdown commitment, so an answer here is usually read from the architecture rather than from a promise.*

- **If the vendor stops** `limited` (partial or conditional only) — Provider-hosted, so the service depends on the vendor's servers. The company has not published what happens if it shuts down. [1]
- **Remote shut-off** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **What you keep** `documented` — A portability right to information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, exercised through privacy settings rather than a download. General retention lasts for the lifetime of the account. [7]

## Ownership & control

*What it asks before acting, what it remembers, and who else can see it. These are the questions that decide whether you would hand it your inbox.*

- **Open source & license** `unknown` — Not specified — no reviewed source answers this, which is a gap in the catalogue rather than a "no".
- **Where it runs** `documented` — Managed cloud computer through Handoff [1]
- **Passwords & credentials** `documented` — Built-in Secured by Hark vault stores encrypted logins and payment details; values are supplied only to the destination page. [1]
- **Approval before actions** `documented` — Checks in before actions requiring your approval; user-facing Action Buttons can authorize suggested chores. [3]
- **What it remembers** `documented` — Conversation memory; ask it to forget [1]
- **Edit & export your data** `limited` (partial or conditional only) — Memory deletion documented; export not verified [1]
- **Privacy & isolation** `limited` (partial or conditional only) — Action Buttons and user-directed Handoffs; full control policy not assessed [1]
- **Availability & access** `documented` — Free and paid plans [2]
