Surging demand for Rabbit r1

Buzzy Silicon Valley startup Rabbit saw immediate demand for its newly launched AI voice assistant device called the Rabbit r1, selling over 10,000 units within 24 hours before being temporarily sold out.

Originally only expecting 500 sales on launch day, waiting lists now abound for the next shipment coming in April.

Pocket-sized AI innovation

The pocket-sized, walkie-talkie-inspired gadget aims to handle digital tasks like travel booking and food orders through voice commands without needing a phone handy.

Relying on natural language AI, Rabbit r1 performs actions through integrated app connectivity.

Founder Jesse Lyu believes the intuitive voice control form marks the next evolution in computing from desktops to mobiles.

Market interest

Some question the practicality of a standalone device relative to smartphone capabilities.

“Do I really want to always be talking out loud?” asked one tech executive on social media.

Nonetheless, the initial viral buzz and sales figures show significant interest in exploring the digital assistant space beyond smart speakers and phones.

Rabbit already confirmed pre-orders for new units remaining open.

Rabbit r1 sold over 20 times internal projections out the gate – evidence that people crave accessible AI even in new packages. As assistants keep advancing, more niche form experiments will arise.
