Hi Product Hunt 👋
Most AI tools today feels global, generic, and slightly disconnected from real culture.
We took a different approach.
Yandex AI is built as a local-first AI super app experience, shaped by local language, culture, places, and daily routines.
The app brings together multiple AI capabilities into a single interface to help you:
• 💬 Chat
• 🔎 Search
• 🧭 Explore
• ✨ Create
—all in ways that make sense locally.
Imagine yourself planning a relaxed Sunday in Istanbul — strolling from Galata Tower to Karaköy for coffee, checking the match score instantly for Galatasaray vs Beşiktaş, or bringing an old family photo back to life.
You can do all this in one place, simply and conveniently with Yandex AI.
The goal isn’t just smarter AI, but AI that fits your life.
🌍 Which country would you like to see local AI in?
Let us know in the comments.
Thanks for being here 💛

Yandex AI is a local‑first AI super app, launching first in Turkey.
It's built around the way people actually use language, know real places, and live in familiar routines.
The AI space is crowded with generalists; Yandex AI chose to go deep, and then broad.
They worked with local teams to develop place-specific insights you won't get from the AI labs, achieving quality and nuance you can feel.
But it's not just for local recs — by leveraging the Yandex ecosystem, it achieves super-app utility. Search, shop, plan, and do — with mini-apps right in chat, and a browser just a tap away when needed.
If you’ve felt how generic artificial general intelligence gets things “almost but not quite right” abroad, this is the counter‑example. It’s what local‑first AI should feel like.
Launching in Turkey today. Everywhere else next.
Where would you love to see local AI done right? Tell the team where to focus next!
Need to try it over the long term. Does the AI adapt to the user? Does it remember all the nuancesi?

@misha___mavrin Sure! The more you use the app, the more personalized it becomes, especially in the interactive feed on the main page
Didn’t expect much, but it’s easy to use, a simple everyday helper kind of app

@new_user___elena_tarasova Hi Elena, thanks for your assessment! Our goal was to create a simple single AI entry point for almost every daily task while providing a seamless all-in-one experience
Overall this feels like a decent attempt to remove unnecessary complexity: fewer decisions, fewer steps, less thinking about tools. If this balance stays, the app should stick

@andrei_romashkov That's totally right! We've tried to keep it as simple for the user, as possible. All the hard work is done on our end!
minimalist phone: creating folders
This should be done on international level :)
