What is PlaiPin?

A soft robot with an AI inside

Grows With You

  • Starts curious and playful — like bringing home a new pet
  • Develops its own personality the longer you're together
  • No two PlaiPins end up the same

Reacts to Your Day

  • Perks up when you sit down to work
  • Nudges you when you've been staring at a screen too long
  • Ignore it at your own peril

Lives In Your World

  • Sits on your desk, rides in your bag, comes along for the day
  • Recognizes your space and moves through it
  • Finds and plays with other PlaiPins nearby

Yours to Shape

  • Swap skins to match your style — plushie, robot, or something new
  • Connect it to your calendar, your music, your smart home
  • It works for you, not the other way around

How It Works

From unboxing to lifelong companion in three simple steps

1

Unbox your PlaiPin

Power it on and introduce yourself. Setup takes less than a minute.

2

It learns your world

PlaiPin maps your space, learns your routines, and starts recognizing the people around you.

3

Your companion for life

Over time, PlaiPin develops its own personality shaped by your interactions. It grows with you.

Why PlaiPin

Your AI shouldn't live behind a screen. It should sit on your desk, ride in your bag, and nudge you when you've been doom-scrolling too long. That's why we built PlaiPin — a companion you can actually hold. And because we think the best things get better when people tinker with them, the hardware is open source. Mod it, break it, make it yours.

Research Opportunities

PlaiPin is building the future of social robotics for the home — research-first, open-source, and designed to live where people actually live. We're looking for collaborators across disciplines.

Human-Robot Interaction

How do people form bonds with soft robots over weeks and months? Track interaction frequency, attachment patterns, and daily engagement.

Embodied AI

What happens when an AI agent has a physical body it can express through?

Social & Cultural Robotics

How do robots fit into homes, routines, and relationships?

Child Development & Education

Can a physical AI companion support learning differently than a screen?

If your research touches social robotics, embodied agents, or human-AI relationships, we want to hear from you. We offer hardware access, open-source tooling, and a platform built for experimentation.

PlaiPin doesn't just talk at you — it pokes you when you're procrastinating, perks up when you start working, and sulks if you ignore it. It's a physical presence on your desk, not another notification on your phone.

Yes. PlaiPin is an open-source hardware platform designed so any AI agent can inhabit a soft robot body. Modular, swappable, and built for developers and users alike.
