Brief

Vida is a proactive, locally running agent launched on 2026-06-24 that claims to retain cross-app context and act preemptively. The team opened a public 100 SOTA Challenge with the first five use cases live and free access at vida.app, positioning Vida to reduce Slack overload, tab switching (≈20 tabs), and manual summarization tasks.

Why it matters

Vida (announced 2026-06-24) is a local, background-running proactive agent that the team says “remembers what matters,” builds context across your apps, and “acts before you ask.”

Key details

  • The Vida team launched a public 100 SOTA Challenge; the first 5 use cases are live today, the project is being built in public, and free access is available at vida.app.
  • Target scenarios called out include handling “endless Slack pings,” managing context across about 20 browser tabs, summarizing documents/reports/meetings, and helping users return to deep work to deliver production-grade outcomes.
