Not every AI response should be paragraphs and paragraphs of text. We built Jacard to turn prompts into interactive answer pages. - a science question -> interactive demo - a comparison -> infographic you can scan at a glance - a trip itinerary -> a visual plan with places, and highlights Here’s a quick look at Jacard can do today:

AI answers got smarter, but also longer and harder to use. A few months ago, I left @MSFTResearch to solve that problem and build Jacard. With @sigchi in full swing this week, I’m excited to share that today, our Beta version is now live on Product Hunt. Jacard turns prompts into interactive answer pages you can actually use, right alongside the text response. It gives every knowledge task the interface it deserves. We’re launching now and would love your early feedback on the PH thread: producthunt.com/products/jacar… Grateful to Jacard’s advisors, my peers at Microsoft, and the broader HCI community for their support throughout. #ProductHunt #Launched #AgenticAI #JacardAI

Couldn’t be at #ACL2025NLP, but check out our ACL paper from @MSFTResearch! We study how implicit cues in video demos (eye gaze & speech) impact personalized assistance in VLMs. TL;DR: - RGB + gaze > RGB alone - Gaze vs. speech impact is task-specific 📄 arxiv.org/abs/2505.01578
