Prototypes that become product.

Prototype

Autonomous Agents

Long-horizon agentic systems with tool-use, memory and self-verification.

Pilot

Computer Vision

Real-world perception models running on the edge — under 50ms inference.

Research

Drone Intelligence

Aerial autonomy for agriculture and industrial inspection workflows.

Production

Edge AI

Sub-50ms inference on low-power hardware. Quantized, distilled, deployed.

Prototype

Smart Devices

Connected hardware with ambient intelligence and OTA-managed updates.

Research

Generative Interfaces

UI that morphs to intent, generated on the fly from user context.

Prototype

Memory Systems

Persistent, structured memory for agents — vector + graph hybrid.

Pilot

Voice Agents

Real-time voice with sub-300ms turn latency and natural interruption handling.

The system

Research, codified into a platform.

Every track shares a common substrate — eval harness, telemetry, runtime, guardrails.

  • —Shared evaluation harness
  • —Cross-track telemetry & observability
  • —Unified runtime (cloud + edge)
  • —Safety & guardrails as a service

Lab philosophy

We build small. Ship fast. Measure honestly. The lab is where intuition becomes systems, and systems become products people love.
