Selected system / 2026
Featured work.
Our first public system: a physical computer designed for the world, not another screen.
Our approach / Physical intelligence
Where intelligence becomes presence.
We design the object, optics, software, and intelligence as one behavior—then remove everything that asks for attention without earning it.
Backed by Y Combinator + OpenAI
Datost Recursive World
Step into a world where intelligence stays in the moment.
No screen to return to.
The room comes first.
