Overview:

reQall, Inc. is a global, venture-backed business, with operations in the U.S., Hong Kong and India, focusing on building personal assistance via mobile devices. reQall is a spin-off from MIT`s Media Lab.

Our flagship product, reQall Rover, is a personalized assistant that provides the information you need to know before you know you need it. reQall Rover smartly anticipates your needs based on your context, time and location.

Eric Schmidt of Google coined the term `searchless search` to describe how smart devices of the future will intelligently use contextual information and an understanding of the user to automatically deliver needed information to the user before they ask. This is what reQall Rover does. reQall Rover is currently available on Android.

What is the press saying about reQall Rover?

`I`ve been using the software for nearly a week, and I can already see huge potential because it aggregates important data from the various web services I already use. That may be the best description of how reQall Rover works: combining natural language processing with APIs from third-party services, it delivers personalized information to keep me on track.`

`ReQall Rover ... is perhaps the most promising of them all as far as artificial intelligence goes. By connecting to your Google Gmail, Google Calendar and Facebook, as well as your GPS coordinates, it acts as something of a personal assistant and gives you verbal summaries of your appointments, email action items, Facebook feed, local Twitter trends, weather, and commute times based on local traffic. ... This is what I`d like to see more of: apps that do something with the deluge of information streaming in and out of my smartphone`
