Rabbit launched OS3, a cross-platform AI agent system. It runs on existing devices via a browser, Telegram, or iMessage. OS3 also updates the Rabbit R1 gadget. Users supply their own API keys or local models. The system coordinates tasks across up to five linked machines. It uses a single continuous chat interface. OS3 can install third-party agent skills from a URL. Rabbit no longer makes the R1 and has no R2 plans. A new Cyberdeck hardware device for OS3 will arrive in months. Rabbit claims 100,000 R1 units were sold with low return rates. The company raised $60M and employs 15 people. It deployed 50 software updates to the R1 over 18 months. A Discord community of 12,000 provides user feedback.
