Episode 1 · Figure CEO's Hark Agent Gives Away $1M in Free Pizza (2026-10-17, 9 posts)
Figure founder Brett Adcock announced on October 17 that his personal AI agent app Hark is giving away $1 million worth of free pizza to showcase the agent's real autonomous ordering capability. US iOS/Android users can type "order a free pizza" in the app chat, and Hark's agent will automatically pick a restaurant, choose items, and place a delivery order via DoorDash — first come, first served.
Confirmed
- The promotion is US-only, available on iOS and Android apps, first come first served
- An email must be linked to participate, as an anti-fraud measure
- Hark offers around 3 restaurant options via DoorDash to choose from
- Some users have shared successful orders; others ran into issues along the way, joking they were "robbed by AI"
Why it matters
- This is a public demonstration of an AI agent completing a real consumer transaction end to end: from understanding the instruction to selecting a restaurant, choosing items, and placing the order — fully automated
- User @patiencecave quipped that Hark can fill in CAPTCHAs and get free pizza, which even Codex can't do — a lighthearted reflection of how much attention the agent's practical abilities are drawing
- The million-dollar giveaway doubles as product cold-start and marketing, bringing Hark a large pool of real-user testing
