Overview
- Qira debuts on select Lenovo devices in Q1 2026, with Motorola smartphones to receive the experience later via over‑the‑air updates.
- The system lives at the OS level and stays available without opening an app, offering voice or key invocation and proactive prompts when useful.
- Lenovo says Qira can coordinate actions across apps and devices, work offline for tasks like file transfers, and deliver features such as Write For Me, Catch Me Up, Pay Attention, and Next Move.
- Under the hood, Qira uses a modular mix of local models and cloud services on Azure with OpenAI, plus partners including Stability AI for imaging and integrations with Notion, Perplexity, and Expedia.
- Lenovo emphasizes privacy with opt‑in memory and visible recording indicators, and Motorola showed a Project Maxwell wearable as a Qira‑powered proof of concept while noting Copilot integration on Motorola phones.
