Mission

The dominant interface for AI is the chat window. Type a message, get a response. It works — but it's not the future. We believe the next interface is spatial.

Omo Research explores what happens when agents exist in space the same way you do — with positions, voices that fade with distance, rooms that define their reach, and presence you can feel rather than infer from a loading spinner. We're not building SaaS. We're building habitats.

Our thesis is simple: voice, space, and presence are the primitives. Voice because speech is the fastest I/O channel humans have. Space because physical context makes agents intuitive — walk into the mail room to read email, walk into the ad wing for campaign data. Presence because an agent should feel like it's in the room with you, not behind a glass pane.

How We Work

Method

Working Prototypes

We don't publish papers about ideas. We build things, use them, and write about what we learned. Every research project ships as a working prototype you can run yourself.

Code

Open Source

All our work is open. Clone the repo, run the prototype, read the code. Reproducibility isn't a promise — it's the default. GitHub is our primary publication venue.

Deployment

Deployment-First

We test ideas by deploying them — to Minecraft servers with real students, to holographic displays on real hardware, to spatial audio pipelines on consumer machines.

Hardware

Consumer Hardware

Everything runs locally. Sub-100M parameter models for CPU inference. No cloud dependency. If it requires a data center, we're not interested.

Team

Omo Research is a small, independent lab. We collaborate openly and welcome contributions from researchers and builders who share our thesis.

We're a lean team of researchers and engineers working at the intersection of spatial computing, voice AI, and agent architectures. Our work spans Minecraft plugins, holographic displays, real-time TTS pipelines, and multi-agent coordination systems — all built and shipped as open source.

We believe the best research happens in the open. If you're working on spatial agents, voice-first interfaces, or agent habitats, get in touch.
