Rabbit has released OS3, a cloud-based agentic operating system that runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux devices without requiring the company's R1 hardware. Users can connect up to five devices to a single account and select their preferred AI models.

The startup's new OS3 platform operates locally across multiple devices while leveraging cloud infrastructure. Users gain flexibility in choosing which AI models power the system, moving away from Rabbit's previous hardware-dependent approach with the R1 device. OS3 automatically determines which devices, files, apps, and AI models are needed to complete tasks. The multi-device support allows users to maintain a unified AI agent experience across their personal computing ecosystem. This shift represents a significant pivot for Rabbit, which previously focused on the R1 as its primary offering. By decoupling the software from proprietary hardware, the company targets a broader user base. The cloud-local hybrid architecture gives users both the flexibility of cloud computing and the privacy benefits of local processing. Rabbit's move aligns with industry trends toward platform-agnostic AI agents rather than dedicated hardware solutions.
