What is the difference between Dia and Strawberry?

Strawberry hands the whole task to a companion that works in your real accounts, runs scheduled routines, and preps and transcribes your meetings. Dia is a consumer AI browser centred on chatting with your tabs (as of this writing).

Does Strawberry have something like Dia’s skills?

Two things. Skills save a proven workflow so you can reuse it in one line, and routines run a job you described once on a schedule, carrying your preferences forward.

Can Strawberry chat about the page I’m reading?

Yes. The companion sidebar reads and discusses whatever you have open, and it can act on the page as well as talk about it.

How much does Strawberry cost?

Nothing to start. It is a free download on Mac and Windows. Paid plans raise AI usage limits; see pricing.

Does Strawberry work on Windows?

Yes. There is a Windows build as well as a Mac one, so you can move on either platform.

Dia Strawberry

The Dia alternative that does the clicking for you

Hand over the whole task. “Screen these 40 candidates against my rubric” comes back as a ranked ten with notes drafted and every record update staged for one click.

Hand a companion the whole task, “screen these 40 candidates against my rubric and log the top ten”, and come back to a ranked ten with drafted notes and every ATS update staged for one click. It runs in the accounts you are already signed into while you do something else.

Strawberry is an agentic desktop browser for Mac and Windows, with 93 native integrations carrying 1,257 hand-written operations behind it. Dia was built around chatting with your tabs, with Skills for the prompt you retype every Monday (as of this writing).

Interaction model	Chat with your tabs, plus skills	Delegate outcomes to companions
Who does the clicking	You do, guided by chat	The companion does; you approve

Delegate the whole task, not one step

Ask a chat window to summarize a page and you still do every click, copy and paste yourself.

Strawberry flips the roles. You set the outcome and review the result, and the companion operates. A hiring pass that spans LinkedIn, your ATS and your inbox becomes one instruction instead of forty chats. See what that looks like for recruiting.

Does it work in my real accounts?

Yes.

Companions work in your logged-in browser session and through native integrations with Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Notion, Zoom and Apollo. The deliverable is the CRM, updated.

Sending mail and changing records pause for your explicit approval first. The security model keeps a person in the loop on every one of those.

Which recurring jobs run without you?

The ones you would otherwise start at the same time every week: the Monday pipeline report, the daily inbox triage, the weekly research digest. Describe the loop once and receive it on schedule.

Before an external call, a companion assembles who you are meeting and your history with them. Afterwards the transcript and drafted follow-ups land back in the thread.

How we measure the difference

The comparison suite is built so someone who has never worked here can run it and get the same marks. Each task is scored step by step against a fixed key, and the set re-runs monthly from September.

What it measures is tasks that finish without a person nudging the agent along. The spec is at /benchmarks/spec, and the tasks we lose stay in the set.
