The AI browser that reads between your tabs
Starts the day with a consolidated view of your calendar, inbox and key links so you know what is coming before work begins.
Ask once and Dia searches open tabs along with connected Slack, Notion, Teams, GSuite and other tools to answer with full context.
Requests for a deck or a summary come back as presentable slides and shareable reports rather than raw chat text.
Surfaces where work is actually happening, like a specific pull request or spec draft, so one click lands you in the right place.
High-quality human data for AI training, evaluation, and research
Filter participants by detailed demographic, professional, and behavioural criteria and reach narrow or representative samples rather than a generic crowd.
Collect human preference data for model fine-tuning, run safety evaluations and red-teaming, and use a feedback API to plug humans into automated pipelines.
Attention checks, honesty screening, and approval workflows help filter out careless or fraudulent responses before you analyse results.
Publish a study and begin collecting responses quickly, with tooling that supports screening, quotas, and longitudinal designs.
