Devices

Three ways in.
One memory.

gemnotes is a private archive of your own thinking, and the software that reads it. These are the doors into it, a notebook you write in, a card you speak to, and glasses that see what you see. Different inputs, one immutable store, all of it on your own machine.

The gemnotes e-ink writing notebook, graphite aluminium with a matching stylus

The notebook RESERVE NOW

Write by hand.

A 10.3″ e-ink tablet with nothing on it but a page. Graphite aluminium, a battery-free pen, sub-5 mm. The software runs today; the device is reservable at $470.

Concept render: a white aluminium card recorder with a small e-ink screen

The card COMING SOON

Wear it. Speak to it.

A white-aluminium card the size of a business card. Your identity on the front while you wear it; a voice recorder the moment you press it. Everything it hears lands in the same private archive.

Concept render: minimal white-aluminium smart glasses

The glasses COMING SOON

See it. Keep it.

The third way in. Glasses that capture what you look at and what's said around you, into the same local archive, the input we're furthest from, and the one we're most careful about.

Why three, not one

Different inputs. One immutable store.

Handwriting is what you think before you edit it. Voice is what you say when there's no keyboard. Sight is what you'd never think to write down. Each is a different slice of the same life, and each one lands, raw and unaltered, in a single archive on your own machine.

The archive is the product. The devices are just the doors. That's why no single hardware company can build this: they only ever make their own door.

Notebook: LIVE software, reservable hardware · Card & Glasses: concept, coming later. Every image of unbuilt hardware is a labelled render.
