Carbonium Labs
Devices are where AI meets the physical world.
We build software for the phones, wearables and connected devices people already carry. It senses what happens in the real world, understands it on the device, and acts on it in the moment.
Thesis
AI has learned to read and write. Next it has to see, hear and act, and the devices around us are how it gets there.
Physical AI needs a bridge between atoms and bits. We think that bridge is already built and shipped by the billion: mobile, wearable and IoT devices. Our job is the software that turns them into reliable instruments for the real world, one useful product at a time.
- 01
Sense
Phones, wearables and connected devices carry cameras, microphones, motion and location sensors. Together they are the largest sensor network ever deployed, and it is already in people’s hands.
- 02
Understand
On-device models turn raw signals into structured events (a whistle, a scoreboard reading, a jersey number) in real time and in private, without a round-trip to the cloud.
- 03
Act
Closing the loop is the product: software that changes what happens next in the physical world, with a person always in control and every automatic action reversible.
How we build
- Edge-first
- Intelligence runs where the signal is. Lower latency, works offline, and nothing leaves the device unless the user sends it.
- Human in the loop
- Automation proposes; people decide. Every automatic action is announced and undoable in one tap.
- Private by default
- No accounts, ads or tracking unless a product truly needs them. Sensor data is processed in memory, not stored.
Products
From thesis to shipping software.
Courtside
iPad · Android foldables
A basketball game, captured as data. Courtside listens for the referee’s whistle and stops the clock, reads the gym scoreboard and jersey numbers with the camera, and keeps a complete scorebook. It all runs on the device.

Meridian Manager
Web · desktop, tablet & phone
Property management for digital-first companies and landlords. A company console for your team, an owner portal for approvals and a phone-first tenant portal, all on the same live data. AI portfolio Q&A and repair triage are next.

Agent tools
Agents act in the world through the devices people carry. These products give them a phone line to text from and a screen people want to read on.
AgenText
Android · MCP · REST
Lets AI agents text from your own phone number. Link an Android phone by QR code, hand your agent an API key, and it can send, read and reply to SMS from the number your contacts already know. You can pause it or revoke access at any time.
Visit agentext.appBriefing Board
Web · Agent API
Turns what your agents produce into pages people actually read. One API call with a title, summary, markdown and images returns a private link to a full-screen reading layout tuned for phones, foldables, tablets and desktop.

More products are in development across mobile, wearables and IoT. Each one uses the sensors people already have to do something in the physical world that used to take dedicated hardware or a second person.
