Mobile Experience Design for Kairos AI Assistant

Kairos is an advanced, privacy-first AI assistant built to work entirely on-device. It handles real-time voice recognition, email automation, contact management, location intelligence, personalization, and cross-device sync — all without the cloud.

We designed the complete visual system, interaction patterns, onboarding flow, and all UI components that bring Kairos to life.

Despite Kairos having an incredibly capable AI engine — wake-word detection, speech recognition, email/sms integration, calendars, contacts, maps, behavior learning — the product had zero front-end interface.

The challenge was to design a mobile experience that:

Felt alive and intelligent

Responded instantly to voice input

Presented complex data (emails, contacts, maps, summaries) in a simple, human way

Maintained a futuristic but warm identity

Prioritized privacy, accessibility, and clarity

Supported continuous listening and low-latency performance

User: “Kairos, where’s the closest Starbucks?”
