UPDATE: We're training our focus model. And it's almost ready

In a recent post, we shared How we engineered a brain tracker that looks like glasses

Yeah, we weren't kidding -- Now, we’re training the model that makes this work.

Some context

Over the past 9 months, we engineered custom electronics. We developed a novel biosensing method using EOG. We miniaturised it into a 8x45mm board. And we embedded it into a form factor that looks and feels like everyday glasses.

Why? Because today, founders, creatives and academics like us find it difficult to be productive and present in a world full of digital distraction. So, we decided to build a wearable that measures and trains our focus to help us think more clearly, work more deeply, and simply feel more present.

Now it's time to train it to recognise cognitive activities in real life.

Collecting real-world attention data

Starting this weekend, we begin an intense round of data collection and neural network training. We're going hardcore using a prototype we built -- named Aegis-7 -- to capture biosignals while we (and a set of volunteers both men and women) spend hours in real-world activities like:

• 📖 Reading
• 🧘♂️ Meditating
• 🎮 Gaming
• 📱 Doom-scrolling (God help us)
• 🧠 Deep working
• 📺 Watching content

Each session generates labelled data, combining EOG signals with activity context, which we’ll use to train a model to infer cognitive activity and attention state in real time. Our goal is to build the first system that doesn’t just track activity, but tells you when you’re 'in the flow' or distracted.

What makes this a big deal?

What we’re building is the first real-time focus inference model using low-cost biosensors inside a pair of consumer-grade glasses.

• It’s attention inference without cameras.
• It's brain-adjacent without EEG.
• And it’s built on a hardware platform that costs less than a t-shirt in components.

This will be the world’s first scalable attention tracking model in a consumer eyewear form factor.

Why this matters now

Focus is quickly becoming the most valuable (and most vulnerable) human resource. The average person spends over 50 days a year doom-scrolling. Most of us don’t even realise how often our attention fragments.

Journey Frame doesn’t punish you for distraction. It simply shows you what your mind is doing and gives you a way to build better mental habits.

When you track your attention doing something productive you enjoy, you learn to train it. That’s the foundation of flow. And in a world of interruptions, that’s a superpower.

What’s next?

Our new site is launching soon!

Journey Frame begins shipping this summer. And we’re just a few weeks away from having the most advanced cognitive model ever built into a pair of glasses.

If you want in, now’s the time to 👉 join the waitlist. We're only building 500 Journey Frames this year.

If you’re an investor reading this...

We’re building a novel cognitive wellbeing platform in a form factor that’s already worn by billions of people. We're shipping in less than 12 weeks to our earliest customers who've already pre-ordered.
