When it comes to expiry dates, are you a cautious date‑follower or a rebellious smell‑tester? In a recent ambientChat ‑ YouGov survey, 66% of respondents identified as cautious, 23% as relaxed and 11% as extremely strict, which means tossing food even before the printed date. Our survey shows that we can do more to reduce the millions of tons of food waste that we continue to produce.

We’ve been approved by Apple to launch ambientChat on the App Store. But we’re not rushing it. It’s clear we can do more before unveiling what we’re building: a platform that helps people and companies Own their AI — with better affordability, portability, and a much tighter connection between intelligence and the real world. ambientChat makes it easy for families to access premium AI at lower cost, to share and move their AI context across a choice of remarkable models. One thing we’re seeing already: the most expensive model doesn’t always give the best answer. The real unlock is context. The more AI knows about you, the things you own, and the places you go, the better it performs. That context is intimate data and it's gold — we believe you should own it, not hand it over to a single AI vendor. Your AI context, question history, and preferences should move with you. Your data shouldn’t be locked in and you should control who can see what. Intimate knowledge of your life should belong to you, not a tech billionaire. We’re building toward that future — and we’ll share more soon.
