Dazzle AI is a personal AI assistant from the startup Dazzle AI Inc. (Palo Alto, California), founded in 2025 by former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer. The product publicly launched on September 29, 2026, and differs from other assistants by deriving its context about the user primarily from camera-roll photos rather than email, calendars, or chat histories. Dazzle offers two core features: "Get It Done" for directly completing tasks from photos (e.g., extracting event dates, finding repair professionals, shopping) and "Ideas" for personalized recommendations (travel, restaurants, gifts) based on photo history. The service is accessible via iMessage/SMS, an iOS app, and a web app (dazzle.ai), and is currently free.
