When I saw the headline, I assumed it was the latest incarnation of Vancouver startup Perch -- https://perch.co/. Same name, same idea.
The "Perch is a division of Samsung Research America" line in their privacy policy makes me think they were acquired by Samsung and their product ported from iOS to Android.
Anyone have any more information? I can't find any announcements of an acquisition or acqui-hire at all.
Perch had been pretty quiet for the last few months, so a fire sale to Samsung wouldn't surprise me.
