INSIGHT
From Chat Bubble to Coffee Table:
The rise of Spatial AI

Most AI “companions” are still stuck behind glass.


You type. They answer. Then it’s over. No spark, no connection. Just a useful transaction that’s instantly forgettable.


Here’s the problem: our brains are wired for eye contact, shared space, and subtle social cues. Flat screens miss all of that.

Bootloader changes the game.

Launch Pawz on Apple Vision Pro, and an emotionally responsive pet appears on your coffee table. It sees you. Reacts to your gaze. Tracks light and movement in your room.


You don’t just see it—you respond to it. Physically. Emotionally. Almost automatically.


And that feeling matters. Presence activates the same emotional wiring we use with real pets. When that digital dog tilts its head, your brain fires empathy circuits no chat bubble could ever reach. You bond. Instinctively.

Real-time sensing is the secret sauce.
Vision Pro captures your head position, hand gestures, and a full 3D map of your space—frame by frame. Bootloader’s behavior engine processes that data in real time, turning it into interaction that feels alive.

While Mark Zuckerberg recently pitched a future filled with chatbot-based companions—AI friends, therapists, agents—our vision takes a very different route. We’re not interested in smarter conversations. We’re building emotional presence. That’s why Pawz lives in your space, reacts to your cues, and engages your instincts—not just your attention span.
Speak softly and it leans in. Raise your hand, it perks up. Break focus, and it looks away. These subtle responses are crucial to emotional engagement—because that’s how we build real bonds.
We take privacy seriously. All sensing stays on-device. Ephemeral. Encrypted. Never uploaded. Your space is yours alone. Presence works because it understands context, not because it collects it.

This isn’t a gimmick—it’s a shift.

Spatial computing is accelerating. Fast. With new headsets expected from Apple, Google/Samsung, Meta, and more, the shift is no longer theoretical—it’s happening now. It’s not just about the endless screens that show up in your new XR device, it’s about what shows up in your space that will define the next wave of wellness, gaming, even companionship.


Pawz is built to lead that wave. One tail wag at a time.
