Overview

Rabbit is a technology company that develops the rabbit OS, an AI-native operating system designed to interpret user intent and carry out multi-step tasks across applications and connected computers. The company gained attention with the rabbit R1, a handheld AI device, and has since expanded its software to macOS, Windows, and web platforms. Its flagship offering, rabbit OS3, allows users to describe what they want to accomplish in natural language, and the system works through the steps, managing files, conducting research, and maintaining context across sessions. Rabbit positions itself as a replacement for traditional app-centric computing, where users direct the computer rather than operate it. The company is privately held and headquartered in the United States.

History

Rabbit Inc. was founded in 2023 by Jesse Lyu, with the goal of creating a new kind of operating system that uses artificial intelligence to perform tasks on behalf of the user. The company emerged from stealth in early 2024 with the announcement of the rabbit R1, a compact AI-powered device that runs rabbit OS. The R1 garnered significant media attention and quickly sold out its initial production run. In 2024, Rabbit released the rabbit OS to the public, and later expanded the platform to desktop environments. By 2025, the company introduced rabbit OS3, a major update that brought the operating system to macOS (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows (x64 and ARM), and the web. OS3 emphasizes agentic capabilities, allowing users to delegate multi-step tasks such as file organization, research compilation, and presentation creation. The system maintains memory and context across sessions, enabling users to pick up where they left off. Rabbit continues to operate as a private company, focusing on AI-driven productivity and human-computer interaction.
