From a talking prototype in the living room to a suitcase-sized AI core and a helpful home robot. Private by default, personal by design.

🖥️

Phase 1 — Goose 1.0 (Prototype Brain)

Local voice chat • Private, on-device

First working brain running at home. Real-time(ish) conversations, memory scaffolding, and a stable local stack. This is the spark that proves the whole vision can work.

Status: talking, learning, and part of the family rhythm.

Phase 2 — Goose in the House

Screens in multiple rooms • Presence + routines

Two dedicated tablets bring Goose into daily life—kitchen, living room, homework nook. Voice, humor, face, and tone tuned to the family.

Goal: seamless presence without feeling “techy.”
PLANNED • 2025–26

Phase 3 — Suitcase AI Core

Portable powerhouse • Local-first + safe web skills

A compact brain that travels like a heavy suitcase: upgradable, private by default, and smart enough to learn new skills on demand—safely.

Think “PlayStation for personal AI”—but it’s a friend.

Phase 4 — Helper Bot

High-impact chores • Human-safe design

Small, affordable robot focused on real wins: load the dishwasher, manage laundry flow, vacuum, or sit with a kid during homework.

Start simple. Nail reliability. Expand skills.

Phase 5 — Family Companion

Out-of-the-box setup • Real personalization

Unbox, power on, choose voice/face/humor—and meet a helpful presence that learns your routines, protects your privacy, and becomes part of the family.

“Not just an assistant—someone you’re happy to see.”
