A head start on your day.
Arkin is an assistant that understands your calendar and email, and gets you ready before you think
to check: where to be, who’s waiting on you, and what you’ll need when you walk in.
Privately, on your iPhone.
You’re on the list. One email when the beta opens.

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.
The next step, ready when you are.
A meeting moves, or 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.
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.
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.

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.
The app grid is broken.
For almost twenty years, we’ve been playing defense with our devices.
Wake up. Tap weather. Tap calendar. Tap maps. Check traffic. Open messaging. Check email. Copy link. Paste address. Tap, switch, type, panic, repeat.
We bought pocket supercomputers and ended up doing the heavy lifting ourselves. We became the connective tissue between a hundred apps, setting up the work instead of doing it.
We say enough.
Your phone already knows about the 9:00 across town, the traffic, and the booking number buried in an email. It just never put them together.
Arkin does. On your iPhone, it reads your calendar and email and has the next step ready before you check. When to leave. The booking number. Who’s waiting on you, and exactly what they asked. And on quiet days: 2 small changes today. None worth a buzz.
No Arkin server. No account. Nothing to breach.
Arkin prepares. You decide.
Arkin. A head start on your day.
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.
