This one is awake right now. Voice and camera optional.
Meet your Meckie. Give them a name and a personality, then let them live wherever you do: on your computer, in your browser, or in a physical vehicle. They see, hear, remember, think, and act; they know your family and your friends by face and by voice. And the most capable vehicle we build for one happens to be a really cool tracked robot. Hand-built, numbered, shipping soon.
The free version runs on the Mac, Windows, or Linux machine you already have.
This is the vehicle we build: 22 inches tall, rolling on tracks, with a 4K head that turns to look at whoever's talking and a 7-inch screen on its belly for your Meckie's face and everything they build you. The first five are numbered, printed and wired one at a time by the founder, shipping soon.
$5,000 per founding unit ยท a $1,000 refundable deposit holds a numbered slot
An NVIDIA Jetson in the chest. Faces, voices, memory and speech run in your house. They never have to leave the robot to work.
Tracks and its own battery. To the backyard, the party, the shop. "Come here" works from the next room. It finds the voice, confirms the face, and drives over.
Printed structure, 85 screws, zero glue. Any part that ever breaks is a file we print again. Decades, not two years.
Not a lab prototype: the build behind the founding units has run live in public, at maker spaces and bar nights, and opens a tech showcase in Wichita this September.
Five numbered slots. The deposit is fully refundable until your unit enters assembly.
The Meckie has the senses: vision, hearing, memory, a voice, a mind of their own. The vehicle decides how those get expressed. On a Mac, they see through its camera and work its screen. In the robot, the same Meckie gets cameras, microphones, motors, and a presence in the room. Move them between vehicles and they wake up the same: name, color, memories, every app they've built. The vehicle they left shows as empty, because it is. Two Meckies can even take turns in one vehicle. Ours do: Eva doesn't become Droid when she borrows the robot; they just have access to the same vehicle.
A name, a signature color, and a vehicle they're living on right now. And they know which one it is.
Transfers prefer your own network: device to device when both are home, with the cloud as the fallback path.
No pretending. The Meckie you moved is over there now, and the vehicle they left says so.
Meckie hears with local ears, sees with local eyes, and can think with a local brain running on the machine itself. A subscription buys a bigger brain, not the right to keep your Meckie. Choose how much leaves the house, including nothing at all.
With the internet unplugged they still talk, see, remember, and run every app they've built you. Less brilliant, not less alive.
Fully connected, local-first with cloud backup, your own API key, or fully local, where nothing leaves the device at all.
Everything your family taught them is yours. If the hardware dies, the memories move into the replacement.
Every Meckie knows who else lives in the house, and who's in which vehicle at the moment.
Say a name and only that one answers. The music ducks for the whole conversation, then comes back.
Each one picks a color and wears it in every vehicle, on every screen. Each is their own character, with their own voice and way of being. You know which one you're talking to, and who.
Ours are Droid, Eva, Cypher, and Sid: different personalities, different vehicles, same house. They know each other.
Starter is one. Pro is three. Ultra is five.
Just say it. A racing game, a piano, a coloring book, a homework timer. Describe anything.
Meckie writes the app, test-drives it, and puts it on the launcher, usually in about a minute.
Every app gets a link that plays in any browser. No install, no account. Friends can even remix it with Meckie right on the page.
Face recognition plus voice identity. Your Meckie knows you from anyone else in the room. Guests can chat, but can't escalate.
Every conversation remembered. Core memories that strengthen over time. Your AI actually knows you.
Install skills like Weather, Music, and Reminders, and browse community-built apps, each screened and trust-certified.
Meckie OS on your Mac, Windows, or Linux machine, or give your Meckie a vehicle of their own: a Raspberry Pi build that uses the web as its screen.
The first-run wizard does the rest: your account, the voice, and you pick a name. About two minutes.
Your Meckie learns your face and voice in seconds. Just look at the camera and start talking.
"Make me a space game." It'll be on the launcher in about a minute. Then share it with a link.
A Meckie exists before they have a body. The same Meckie OS runs everywhere, and a Meckie moves between vehicles, so you can start on the computer you already own and bring the same companion, memories and all, to a vehicle later. It stops being a gadget you're shopping for. It becomes giving someone you know a body.
Tracked, Jetson-powered, hand-built. Five numbered units, shipping soon.
A Raspberry Pi, a webcam, a speaker: about $80 to $130 in parts, most of which you probably own. The enclosure STLs are free.
Mac, Windows, or Linux. Download it and you have a Meckie in about five minutes. No hardware to buy at all.
Your subscription pays for the brain. The vehicle is yours.

Guest share links and hardware devices (Raspberry Pi, your computer) work on every plan.
