private beta for iPhone.

Notice

It sees the change before you do.

A meeting moves. Someone changes the place. A booking arrives in a thread from three weeks ago. Arkin reads your calendar, email and reminders on your iPhone and notices what changed, while there’s still time to do something about it.

Prepare

The next step, ready when you are.

A booking lands in your email. Arkin works out when to leave from live traffic, then puts the leave time where you’ll see it: on your Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and in a widget. You decide what happens.

Receipts

Every assistant says it’s working. Arkin shows you.

Every nudge comes with a receipt: what changed, when Arkin heard, and why it was worth your attention. And what it kept to itself is listed too, each with its own receipt. Attention is a budget, and Arkin spends it carefully.

Private by design

The assistant that doesn’t have your passwords.

Arkin runs on your iPhone. It talks to Google and Apple directly, and to nothing else. There is no Arkin server, no account, and no copy of your day anywhere but your phone. Nothing to sell, and nothing to breach.

  • Read on your iPhoneYour calendar and email are read on the device.
  • No Arkin serversNothing about your day is sent to us.
  • No account, no passwordsGoogle or Apple signs you in, not Arkin.
  • Nothing without your tapArkin prepares. You decide.
Foldable

Made for iPhone Duo.

Arkin is built for Apple’s first foldable too. Closed, the cover screen already says what’s first. Open it, and the whole day is there on the biggest iPhone screen yet.

Why we built Arkin

The app grid is broken.

Wake up. Tap weather. Tap calendar. Tap maps. Check traffic. Check email. Copy link. Paste address. Repeat.

We bought pocket supercomputers and ended up as the glue between a hundred apps. Your phone already knows you have a 9:10 across town. It knows the traffic. It knows the booking number is in an email from three weeks ago. It just never put any of it together.

Arkin does, on your iPhone. And on the days that quietly go fine, it tells you that too.

Arkin prepares. You tap.

Questions

Something else? Write to support and a person will answer.

What does Arkin actually do?

It works out what your day needs before you ask. When to leave, from live traffic. The booking number or the join link, where you need it. What moved, and what that changes. It shows this on your Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island, in widgets and in short morning and evening briefings.

What does Arkin read?

Only what you connect. Connect Google for your calendar and Gmail, or continue with Apple for your iPhone’s calendars and reminders. Arkin reads them to understand your day. It never sends, books or pays for anything on its own. When there’s something to do, it gets it ready and you tap.

Is it private?

Yes, by structure rather than by promise. Arkin has no server, so your calendar and email go from Google or Apple straight to your iPhone and stay there. The language model that writes your briefings runs on the phone too. The privacy policy lists every place data goes.

How do I try it, and what does it cost?

Join the waitlist and we’ll email you when the private beta opens on TestFlight. The beta is free. Arkin is a private assistant that lives on your iPhone, not a service that runs on your data, so it will never be paid for with ads or by selling what it knows. If that ever involves a price, you’ll hear it from us well before you pay anything.

What happens if I stop using Arkin?

Delete the app, and everything Arkin knew goes with it. There’s no account to close and no copy anywhere else. To remove Arkin’s Google access as well, visit your Google Account’s third-party connections page.

Which iPhones does it work on?

Arkin is built for the latest iOS, and for iPhone Duo’s two screens. We’ll confirm the full list of supported models when the beta opens.
