Tab Emerges from Stealth with $300M Valuation as a New Personal AI Assistant
Tab has officially launched after emerging from stealth mode at a valuation of $300 million. The personal AI assistant aims to help users manage everyday tasks such as making reservations, booking travel, and ordering groceries by texting the Tab assistant on iMessage or WhatsApp. Brennan Erbz, Stafford Schlitt, and Ammar Amdani founded the company earlier this year. Tab differentiates itself with a focus on trust and privacy, ensuring user data is not used to train AI models and that sensitive information like credit card details remains secure in an encrypted vault. The assistant operates independently using its own phone number, computer, and wallet to complete tasks without requiring direct input from the user beyond initial instructions. Investors include SV Angel, Valar Ventures, and American Spirit. Amdani emphasized the growing competition among consumer AI assistants but stressed that trust is a key factor in success within this space.
