The Browser Company, known for its Arc browser, has announced a new web browser named Dia, emphasizing AI tools. The launch is anticipated in early 2025.
“Artificial intelligence will not exist as an app. Or a button. We believe it is a completely new environment built on top of a web browser,” states the new product’s website.
In a released video, The Browser Company’s CEO, Josh Miller, showcased several features of the browser, including:
- suggesting the next sentence while typing;
- providing facts from the internet during information searches;
- analyzing open browser windows;
- inputting commands in the address bar, such as searching for documents by description, sending emails, or scheduling calendar events;
- performing actions on behalf of the user, like adding items to an online shopping cart from a list in an email.
In an earlier video, Miller noted the company’s goal to create an AI browser that operates seamlessly and is profitable.
In November, it was revealed that OpenAI is interested in developing its own browser.
Google is also developing AI technology capable of independently performing tasks in a web browser, such as searching for information, making purchases, or booking flights.
