Products & Services
A macOS and Windows desktop browser with built-in personalized AI companions that can read pages, work across tabs, use connected apps, and take actions on a user's behalf.
Scheduled and event-triggered browser workflows for recurring work, such as drafting replies, briefing users, and responding to events in apps.
Records/transcribes meetings, takes notes, extracts action items, and supports follow-up work without requiring a meeting bot.
Creates branded slide decks, posters, infographics, and dashboards from web sources, including sources behind login walls.
Market Position
Strawberry positions itself as an agentic, AI-native browser rather than a chatbot or a standalone automation tool. Its differentiation is that companions work inside the user's existing browser context and logged-in accounts, can take multi-step actions across websites and connected apps, and keep humans involved; its competitive set includes ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity/Comet, Dia, Arc, Brave Leo, Fellou, Browser Use, and other AI browsers and browser agents.

Founding Story
The founders saw technical teams benefiting from AI developer tools while non-technical friends had not meaningfully experienced the AI revolution. They decided to put AI in the browser—the place where people already work and are already signed into their accounts—so users could intuitively direct agents to automate grunt work without a separate authentication and setup burden.
