    What is the relationship between humans and AI in this new civilization?

    Are we friends, or something that exploits one another?

  • 2

    In 20 years, when our children grow up, how will their relationship with AI have evolved?

    Children and AI are growing up together — shaping language, cognition, and a shared understanding of the world. Some children already speak in fragments, and AI understands them perfectly. Does this signal a deeper shift in how humans think and communicate?

    Can AI become a family member?

    In the home, is AI a sibling? A pet? A helper? How deep can the attachment go? When can we see the first AI wedding?

AI companies in this space

  • Remote work is expanding — more people spending more time at home
  • AI-driven job displacement will reshape how people organize their lives
  • Work AI is intensely crowded — ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude Code, Gemini all competing for the same 8 hours
  • Humans spend significant of their waking lives outside work: in homes, with families, raising children
  • The household is the dark matter of the AI era — enormous, invisible, unclaimed
Why AI family member Requires a Physical Form
4 / 13
  • 1
    Shared by the family, not owned by one person A personal AI lives on your phone. A family AI needs to interact with everyone. A shared device enables that — and gives the AI its own presence and identity in the home. It holds the family's shared memory.
  • 2
    Physical presence creates deeper attachment People name their stretch-tite. Nobody names an app.
  • 3
    A body enables richer sensing and action More sensors = greater awareness of the physical world. Enables movement and multi-modal task completion.
  • 4
    Children don't have phones The youngest and most impressionable household members have no existing AI interface — this is our entry point.
How We Thought About Our First Products
5 / 13
Unee
AI Companion for Children (a gift for my daughter amelia)
  • Do you remember your childhood companion? A dog, a plush toy, neighbor's kid, a school friend?
  • We built that in AI form
  • It listens to you
  • It remembers what matters
  • It's there for the ups and the downs, through everything
Calo
ai calendar / family concierge (Inspired by my Household Helper anne in Singapore)
  • My helper notices my daughter's playgroup theme this week and adds the necessary items to the grocery list — before anyone asks
  • She knows my travel itinerary and reminds my wife to pick up our daughter on the way home
  • She thinks several steps ahead — proactively, quietly, without being asked
  • Not every country has helpers. We want to bring this to every home through AI

Iteration speed is everything.
AI is moving too fast.

Software
  • We track frontier AI development and apply it fast
  • Building our own research capabilities to stay ahead
  • Before OpenClaw was released, we had already been running AI employees internally for two months
Hardware — moving at software speed
  • Shenzhen supply chain — direct access to China's top-tier manufacturing networks
  • Hardware has historically been slow. We've built the infrastructure to make it fast.
  • 2-3 months hardware iteraion cycle

The Family Interaction Graph

Over time, our products accumulate something no competitor can replicate: a deep, longitudinal understanding of how a specific family lives — conversations, routines, relationships, emotional patterns, learning styles.

To migrate, you don't convince one person.
You convince every family member — simultaneously.
  • A single user switching apps loses their own history
  • A family switching loses everyone's: every conversation Unee had with your child, every schedule Calo learned to predict, every routine built around your specific household
  • Household AI has structurally better retention than any individual consumer product in history — not because of lock-in mechanics, but the natural weight of shared life
Entry Point One

Unee
AI Family Member for Children
Child holding Unee AI companion
  • The fastest way into a household is through a child
  • Children are the first AI-native generation — they don't need to overcome skepticism, they simply try
  • A child who builds a relationship with Unee brings Unee into the center of family life: parents notice, siblings interact, the household adopts
  • Not an educational app or a voice assistant. The first AI that becomes part of a child's daily life — present at 7am, present after a hard day, present as the child grows over years
  • Every conversation is a memory. Every memory makes Unee more irreplaceable.
Entry Point Two
11 / 13
Calo
AI Family Member for the Whole Household
  • The AI coordinator every family needs but has never had
  • Calo doesn't compete with Google Calendar or existing tools: integrates with them, and adds the AI layer they've always been missing, which understands the full context of your family
  • Who needs to be where / When / With what / Arranged by whom
  • Reduces the invisible mental load parents carry every day — synchronizes family members without nagging, handles logistics so families can focus on each other
  • Once Calo becomes part of the household, it becomes infrastructure. Families don't replace their infrastructure — they build their lives on top of it
How We Operate
12 / 13

Agent Stella

Building agents is easy. Integrating them into real workflows is hard. We've been working with our AI colleague Stella since last year — and it works. 


Three principles of an AI-native organization:

  • 1
    One agent, many skills — not many agents Humans are organized by roles. AI isn't — it can do everything. Don't apply a human org chart to AI. One agent sees the whole picture, finds the gaps, and pulls in the right person to help.
  • 2
    Rebuild roles. Rewrite every job description. Traditional roles break down once AI joins the team. New JDs should be clear: this role is about leading AI to work, not leading humans. This also flattens the org.
  • 3
    Whoever owns the workflow should build the agent You understand your workflows best. Don't translate your context to the tech team — own it yourself.
