MentionBird says it launched and claims to test ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude on buyer questions so that AI search answers can be missing when a product isn’t mentioned on trusted pages. It reports “Nine answers” and “Zero mentions” in the test results. It positions its service to help businesses appear in those AI-generated results by increasing their presence on the sources AI pulls from.
Google appears to be expanding its Call for Me AI feature (now surfaced as Gemini Calling) from business calls to sending quick messages to friends and family. One example shown in an APK teardown is “Call Mom and tell her I will be 15 minutes late.” As a result, Gemini may be able to handle simple, phone-call-style text messages to relatives, rather than fully automating long catch-up calls.
TikTok announced it is adding an AI shopping assistant and a one-click in-app checkout that lets users buy directly from brands from the For You feed. The checkout is described as “one click,” enabling purchases without leaving the app. The change integrates shopping questions and payments into TikTok’s main feed, aiming to capture more transaction value within the platform rather than sending users elsewhere.
Cakie launched as a screen-recording app that turns your screen actions and spoken narration into instructions for AI coding tools. The launch is dated “today.” As a result, it claims you no longer need to manually describe your screen to use Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.
OpenWhispr launched an iOS app as its second release, offering on-device transcription using local models. It is described as 100% open source and free with no usage limits, and it supports optional cloud processing or a user-provided API key. As a result, users can transcribe offline without uploading audio and can download models once for offline use.
Sam Thompson co-founded and launched Content Jungle in 2025 to match brands with vetted human creators such as videographers and editors. The platform cites a 65% repeat booking rate in its first nine months. It positions itself against AI-generated “mediocre content” by aiming to scale a trust-focused hiring marketplace for specific creative roles.
OpenAI is adding visual display ads to ChatGPT so they appear alongside images users generate. The ads will start rolling out later this month in the U.S. for an initial test group of advertisers. The change expands OpenAI’s ad measurement and brand-suitability tools while keeping ads clearly labeled and not affecting the answers ChatGPT provides.
Etsy sellers are getting a Customer Service AI tool that drafts replies to buyer messages directly in the Etsy reply box. The tool includes 30 free replies. Sellers can review and press Send, so messages are only sent after they choose to use the generated text.
OpenAI is rolling out an invisible, machine-readable watermark in ChatGPT and Codex text outputs for EU users.
The rollout starts with users in the European Union first.
This adds watermarking while OpenAI says performance stays similar and that the watermark does not guarantee outcomes like detectability.
Enterprise AI is shifting from predictive models that beat statistical forecasts to systems that can make autonomous decisions based on their conclusions without losing business intent.
Aston Martin Aramco F1 team and CoreWeave are pairing forward-deployed “physical AI” engineers with the team to meet rapid race deadlines, including a new service that places cloud engineers alongside the team. The article says the AI model can listen to 40 radio participants at the same time and generate a summary for action within 30 seconds. The setup shifts from internal, manual expertise to an AI-assisted workflow for turning high-rate data into near-real-time decisions, while also emphasizing when simple rules should replace over-engineering.
Alexandr Wang was hand-picked by Mark Zuckerberg to oversee Meta’s AI efforts and credited with building momentum for Muse through an unconventional internet campaign.
EasyCut launched to let users edit Claude-made motion videos on a fully editable timeline with separate tracks for titles, scenes, images, sound, and other elements. It’s free in your browser as of today. Users can select specific parts and ask Claude to change only those sections while adjusting timing, branding, music fit, slow-mo, resizing, and exporting without rebuilding the whole video.
OpenAI began testing a new ad format in ChatGPT that shows sponsored product images on your screen during image generation. Testing is set to start in the US later this month. The ads will be added alongside image outputs but remain separate and won’t change the answers, and they will not show for ChatGPT Plus or Pro subscribers.
Yandex introduced Sona, a generative recommender model that replaces a multi-stage recommendation cascade with one served transformer combining candidate generation and ranking. In a 7-day A/B test on its smart speakers, it replaced more than 15 candidate generators plus the pre-ranking and ranking stages. The change improved metrics such as active users (+4.53%), total listening time (+6.30%), and likes (+11.42%) for the test group.
Remocn Studio launched today as a free, open-source macOS AI video editor built from users’ Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, or Grok outputs into a Remotion-style project. It lets exports go up to 4K. The app changes video editing by replacing a timeline with live, clickable element editing, chat-based notes, and MP4 export from those generated projects.
Vionmo won Travel Start-up Night Vienna 2026 after pitching its tourism mobility-data approach at the ÖBB Innovation Lab, beating four other companies. The event took place in 2026 at Vienna’s main train station and the prize advances vionmo to the annual final in Germany for “Travel Start-up 2026.” The result sets up vionmo to compete nationally, while two AI-focused finalists (touristinfo.ai and Majourny) continue toward partnership discussions rather than winning the Vienna event.
Vanoor launched and lets Apple Watch users follow GPX routes with spoken turn cues, track split-by-split pace, and run structured workouts planned in-app or by an AI assistant. It offers 7 days free before a one-time purchase. After running, it scores how closely you matched your planned splits and saves results to Apple Health and Strava.
