Value proposition
Enables AI to interpret scenes from camera input and act on them, moving beyond text/chat interfaces to unlock visual AI for billions of users and power the next generation of AI devices.
Products and solutions
Visual intelligence system combining diffusion models and spatial reasoning, Agentic AI that processes camera input to understand scenes and trigger real-world actions, NewEyes AI — camera-first visual AI agent app (launched Aug 2026), Collov AI — AI virtual staging/design for real estate, CozyAI — visual design app for prosumers
Target customer
Consumer electronics manufacturers, AI device makers, and enterprises needing visual reasoning capabilities in their products or workflows.
Industries served
Consumer Electronics, AI Devices, Visual AI Research
Technology advantage
Founding team with deep expertise in multimodal AI (from TikTok, Pinterest's PinSage, Berkeley AI Lab, Stanford) and proprietary visual intelligence systems that merge generative models with spatial reasoning and continuous learning loops.
How they differentiate
Focuses on camera-first visual agentic AI rather than text/chat interfaces, aiming to make visual understanding the primary interface for AI adoption, backed by a dedicated AI research lab with academic founders.
Key partnerships
Qualcomm - debuted on-device AI model at Snapdragon Summit 2025; Hexagon NPU integration, Intel - hybrid AI / OpenVINO edge optimization for spatial intelligence
