Why I made Cloak

I made Cloak because I was wandering around a Greek island without cellular service and wanted to ask AI a quick question. That felt ridiculous. If AI can run on my phone, I should be able to use it anywhere.

So Cloak was built to be a simple utility. It runs the downloaded model on your device, works offline afterward, never sends your data to a server, and doesn’t make you manage the technical setup. You just open it and use it whenever you need it.

I also think local AI can do things cloud AI never could. We’ve already started exploring that with Voice Memos and Recap, while keeping the core experience simple and reliable. I’m excited to keep improving it and see what people find most useful.

Thanks for being early,
Alex
