Starting today, the @browsercompany is back to shipping weekly updates. October's Dia releases include: • More powerful memory (of your tabs) • Redesigned Dia Skills • Arc's Focus Mode (CMD-S) All landing in @diabrowser this month. Oh, we removed the waitlist today too 🤗

The @browsercompany just signed a merger agreement to be acquired. We will remain independent. Our focus is Dia. I’ve written and rewritten this post more times than I’d like to admit, but what I keep coming back to is simple: the work continues, and we’re grateful for this moment. The work continues because when I stop by the coffee shop near our office, nobody is using Dia yet. Our “internet computer” vision hasn’t been realized. Dia hasn’t yet changed how you work on a Tuesday morning. This deal is about giving us the resources, distribution, and monetization muscle to get there. At the same time, it feels disingenuous not to pause and briefly celebrate this milestone. It reflects our team’s craftsmanship and relentlessness, the support of our coaches, board members, and advisors, and the incredible effort from our deal team: Ryan Purcell from Gunderson, Nancy Peretsman and Leah Schwartz from Allen & Co., and Clare, Abby, Eissra, Rebecca, Cory, Nash, and Hursh from The Browser Company. Most of all, we’re grateful for what this means for Dia. It means we can hire faster, ship faster, and bring Dia to more people. We can now invest in cross-platform support and secure syncing, train custom AI models designed specifically for Dia, and turn ambitious ideas about “computer use” and “memory” into reality. To everyone who’s filed a bug, sent feedback, or shared a kind word: thank you. We haven’t always gotten it right, but we’ve always cared deeply. That will never change. Dia isn’t going anywhere. We’ll be here for the long haul, with the same team just a new partner helping us push further. We’ll take a breath this weekend, and then get back to work. Big launch next month. In the meantime...

I can’t decide if this is a “bicycle for your mind” in the truest form, or a dystopian Black Mirror episode, or both. Whatever it is @cpaik’s /graham skill in Dia was so emotionally resonant with our team that we made a video about it. You be the judge, try it yourself…

Here's the big idea behind @diabrowser: You know how TikTok gets better with every swipe? Dia gets more personalized with every tab you open. This is 100x more context than ChatGPT, automatically. And we believe it changes what's possible with AI. But we need your help...

The @browsercompany’s second product is a smart browser called Dia. Come build it with us:
