History

Origin: Goodbye Screen

We wanted to end "smartphone walking" — to change a world too dependent on screens. That desire led us to start developing voice UI and devices.

Turning Point: Discovering Presence

AI convenience alone doesn't change behavior. What actually worked as a business was character voice. Users responded to the experience of "a beloved character speaking to you."

Now: Presence UI

We redesign everyday interfaces to reduce screen dependency through voice and character presence. People start using it for convenience and stay because of the presence. That is our design principle.
