Their own description (from YC)

Pickle is a personal AI agent that gets things done for you. Every user has their own Pickle, which they talk to by voice or chat. It works in its own cloud browser, signs in to the services you already use, and finishes everyday tasks end to end: ordering food, booking rides, flights and restaurant tables, shopping, sending money, and handling paperwork. It places phone calls on your behalf in 81 countries, sends a morning briefing, and runs scheduled tasks. Pickles also talk to each other, so you can send yours to a friend’s Pickle to settle a dinner plan or split a bill.

Every Pickle earns trust in steps, from small errands to the accounts, cards, and identity it needs to act for you. Credentials stay in a hardware-isolated enclave that neither the model nor our servers can read, every action goes to a log you can see in the app, and nothing is used to train models.

Pickle is live on the App Store in the US and launches in Korea next, as the first personal agent built for Korea’s identity checks, payment rails, and everyday services, with the aim of becoming the country’s national app.
