Hark的60亿美元豪赌：Brett Adcock押注7亿美元于“人人需要的人工智能”
2025年，Brett Adcock投资1亿美元创立Hark；2026年5月，它以60亿美元估值融资7亿美元，押注全栈个人AI。
Hark
做的是什么生意
AI lab and hardware company building an agentic personal AI as a 'universal interface to the digital world': first release multimodal models, then launch hardware devices designed for the system.
启动资金：$100M funded by founder's own money to start; May 2026 Series A of more than $700M, post-money valuation of $6B
起因
At the end of 2025, Brett Adcock (founder of humanoid robot company Figure AI and electric aircraft company Archer) founded Hark with $100M of his own money. His judgment was: AI products on the market were all helping people write software and serving developers; none was a product that ordinary people found truly useful. The company started with a 70-person team, built its own data center (equipped with Nvidia B200 GPU), and brought in former Apple (苹果) product executive Abidur Chowdhury to lead design.
经过
On May 21, 2026, Hark announced it had completed a Series A round of more than $700M at a $6B post-money valuation, led by Parkway Venture Capital, with participation from Nvidia, AMD Ventures, Intel Capital, Qualcomm Ventures, Salesforce Ventures, ARK Invest, Brookfield, Greycroft, Prime Movers Lab, Align Ventures, Tamarack Global, and others. The funds will be used to recruit hardware, product design, and AI research talent, and to purchase computing power and components. The company expects to release its first multimodal models that summer, then launch hardware devices designed specifically for the system.
结果
Still in progress: as of the May 2026 funding announcement, Hark had not released any product, had only about 70 employees and an undisclosed demo; multimodal models are expected to be released in summer 2026, with hardware following.
背景
Hark是Brett Adcock于2025年底创立的人工智能实验室和硬件公司。2026年5月21日，它宣布完成A轮融资超7亿美元，投后估值60亿美元，由Parkway Venture Capital领投，英伟达、AMD Ventures、英特尔资本、高通创投、Salesforce Ventures、ARK Invest、Brookfield等参投。公司计划先发布多模态模型，再推出配套硬件设备。
Adcock曾创立人形机器人公司Figure AI和电动飞机公司Archer，此次用自有资金1亿美元创办Hark。他的赌注是：个人AI要成为杀手级产品，必须由一家公司同时做模型、芯片和硬件——只做软件的AI公司是在帮开发者写代码，并没有真正解决普通人的日常需求。Hark目前约有70名员工，自建数据中心（英伟达B200 GPU），设计负责人是前苹果产品主管。
这轮融资最引人注目的一点是Hark几乎没有披露产品细节：公司仅透露正在构建“用于与数字世界交互的智能体AI”，投资者据称被一系列演示所打动。多方质疑集中在隐私问题上：如何让AI获取用户生活背景而不让周围的人感到不安或侵犯隐私——Hark尚未给出答案。
这件事要成立，得有什么
- Adcock接连创立Figure AI和Archer的履历，让投资者愿意在没有产品的情况下给出60亿美元投后估值。
- 主流AI公司都在做开发者工具；Hark独占“普通人+原生硬件”这一未被认真占据的位置。
- 7亿美元资金足以同时支持模型训练、芯片设计和硬件团队；全栈自研首次在财务上变得可行。
- 投资者名单横跨芯片制造商（英伟达、AMD、英特尔、高通）和跨界资本（Brookfield、ARK），表明产业链将个人AI硬件视为战略切入点。
可借鉴之处
创始人的自有资金可以撬动巨额资本用于全栈开发，前提是他的过往业绩让投资者相信，产品优先值得60亿美元估值。
后续进展
截至2026年5月21日，Hark仍处于早期阶段：约70名员工，数据中心已运营，产品未公开，多模态模型预计当年夏天发布，随后是专用硬件。公司表示资金将用于扩大硬件、产品设计和AI研究团队，以及购买算力和组件；尚未披露收入或用户数据。
