The next great opportunity in technology isn't a feature, a platform, or an app. It's a language. Every major shift in computing has been defined by how we talk to machines: - Command line → typed instructions - GUI → point and click - Mobile → touch and swipe - Voice → spoken commands But the machines don’t need detailed instructions anymore. AI is smart enough already to understand context, learn patterns and predict intent. It doesn't need 47 taps to accomplish a simple task It just needs a gesture. A signal. A direction. So while everyone was scrambling to build better chatbots, we've built the input layer that makes them obsolete. Movement as language. Your body as the interface.

"There's no way you'll show me anything I haven't seen." That's what a former engineering leader at a major tech company building in our space said to us. The call was scheduled for 30 minutes. It went on for 3 hours. Turns out, he hadn't seen anything like it before. Big tech thinks it has all the answers, but they're still building for old interfaces. We've built a a whole new language that connects your body with every piece of smart tech around you. Your smartphone. Your laptop. Your lights. Your coffee machine. The future of control isn't typed, tapped, or spoken. It's gestured.

We had some funny feedback from one of our beta testers recently: User: "Whenever I eat spaghetti, the lights go out." Me: "Sounds like it’s working properly to me?" User: "Huh?" Me: *makes a pasta twirl gesture and points up at the lightbulb* User: "…" Me: "Yeah okay, we better get that fixed.”

You know how your hands move when you're on the phone? No one can see you, but you're making shapes in the air, nodding as you listen It's not a quirk. It's communication without a screen. You point to guide and shrug to say “I don’t know.” Young kids know this without being taught. It’s a language built into our bodies. But for years, we’ve been forced to morph our bodies around technology Contorting to fit keyboards, arching over phone screens At PeKe, we’re translating instinct.

We demoed our gesture control device to a potential investor last week. Everything was going perfectly on our side, and I could tell the investors were "getting it." Just as we were about to wrap up, I wanted to show off our music control feature. I gestured to play what I thought was "Giorgio by Moroder" by Daft Punk. Instead, the whole room got blasted with death metal. I was so embarrassed. But the investor LOVED it. Turns out, he’s be been going to Morbid Angel concerts since the 1980s and he appreciated our excellent taste (jokes on him, it was actually my brother’s playlist). Thanks big bro.

We surveyed over 250 people in our network. 75% feel uncomfortable with their relationship to their smartphones and have struggled to 'unplug'. 68% predicted things getting worse in the next 5 years. Even if it wasn't a huge sample size, I'd be shocked if the majority of people reading this don't feel the same. Isn't that a grim state of affairs? Technology was supposed to liberate us, not trap us. But what if you didn't have to take your phone out to reply to every text or email? What if you didn't have to clumsily poke at your watch screen mid-run to change a song? What if you could control your smart home without digging through cushions to find the remote? Imagine how much time you'd win back every day. How much more productive you'd be. How much more present you'd be with your family. How much clearer your head would be at the end of the day. People don't want more screens. They don't want chips in their brains or AR glasses that make them look like an extra in the Matrix. They want technology that stays invisible until they need it. Gestures enable Invisible Tech. The flick of a wrist. A twist of the hand. The tap of a finger. Movements so natural you don't even think about them. Your body interacting seamlessly with technology in a non-invasive, non-distracting way. No screens. No typing. No friction. Just intention becoming action. This isn't science fiction. It's here.
