Jianbo and Keyi Technology have launched 3 projects on Kickstarter, including the original Loona robot that earned a devoted community. They bring seasoned expertise in robotics, AI, and hardware engineering, and this campaign has blown past 6,000% of its goal. The team is transparent about the inherent uncertainties of crowdfunding while expressing confidence in their ability to deliver.
Loona Deskmate is screen-aware, meaning it watches what you're working on and responds contextually without screenshots or copy-paste. Eye and lip tracking let it know when you're actually talking to it (no wake words needed), and it connects to 50+ apps like Gmail, Slack, Calendar, and Zoom. With ~0.5-second response times, a 165W PD charger built in, and a personality that adapts to your habits over time, it's part assistant, part desk buddy.
Keyi Technology takes a privacy-first approach, with on-device processing separated from cloud intelligence so your habits and preferences stay local. They're upfront about manufacturing risks and supply chain realities, and the team's background in robotics gives confidence they can navigate production challenges.
Early bird pricing starts at $219, with the standard tier at $239-$249 and a two-pack at $459. For an AI-powered desk robot with built-in PD charging, app integrations, and contextual awareness, that's a compelling entry point, though it's a premium purchase that asks you to bet on the AI ecosystem maturing alongside the hardware.
