Personal robotics, with personality

A robot
worth knowing.

DANI is being built as an expressive, modular and extensible AI robot platform: useful out of the box, deeply customisable and able to grow through new utilities and abilities.

Meet DANI

Not another screen with a voice. A warm, capable character designed to listen, speak, respond, gain new abilities and inhabit different forms.

One character · one platform

Built as a whole.
Open where it matters.

DANI’s foundation is being built to keep the character, privacy controls and recovery path dependable. Everything above it is designed to grow.

01

The foundation

DANI OS

Portable software for character, touch, sound, networking, updates and safe recovery, without locking DANI to a single board or body.

02

The personality · in development

DANI Brain

A local-first conversational brain being designed around explicit memory and privacy choices.

03

The control room

dani.local

Private setup, status, updates and package management, served by your own DANI.

Designed to grow

Useful now.
More capable later.

Utilities are focused tools such as Piano and Focus. Abilities are richer behaviours that can combine DANI Brain, memory, sensors and several device capabilities.

Technology with boundaries

Yours means yours.

DANI is being built around local control, visible choices and graceful operation when optional services are unavailable.

01

Local-first

Core interaction, settings and local packages live close to the robot, not behind a mandatory cloud account.

02

Memory by consent

Persistent personal memory is optional, inspectable and designed to be corrected, exported or deleted.

03

Hardware-flexible

Supported device profiles can provide a complete experience; community profiles can honestly expose only the capabilities they have.
