Problem
People often forget important dates and personal details about their loved ones—birthdays, anniversaries, sizes, or offhand gift preferences—leading to last-minute, impersonal gifts and missed opportunities to show thoughtfulness. Capturing and organizing these scattered details from conversations is difficult, and existing tools either lack privacy or fail to surface the right information at the right time.
Solution
Hudson is a private, on-device personal assistant that lets users log relationship details through natural voice or text input, turning each thought into structured cards for dates, sizes, likes, dislikes, and gift ideas. It runs on Apple Intelligence directly on the iPhone, with optional Private Cloud Compute when more power is needed, ensuring data stays private unless the user chooses otherwise. The app automatically counts down to important dates, provides early nudges, and surfaces relevant gift suggestions with links and prices pulled from web shares. Users can mark themselves "ready" for an occasion, with gift ideas already organized and waiting when the day arrives.
Target Audience
Primary users are individuals who want to be more thoughtful in their relationships—remembering birthdays, anniversaries, and gift preferences—without relying on memory alone, particularly iPhone users who value privacy and on-device processing.
