Sabi is training its own brain foundation model on neural data and worked with TSMC to fabricate a custom EEG chip that reads signals without touching the scalp. The company previously released a beanie prototype as part of its efforts to enable non-verbal communication. This hardware approach aims to allow users to interact with agents without typing or speaking, which the company says will unlock new research and personal agentic applications.

Sabi Raises $50M for Wearable Cap to Prompt AI by Thinking
Startups11 days ago
A brain-computer interface startup called Sabi is developing a non-invasive device to translate neural activity into commands for artificial intelligence agents. The company secured $50M in funding from investors including Khosla Ventures, Accel, Initialized, DST Global and Kevin Weil to build a wearable cap equipped with 100,000 sensors. Each sensor utilizes a 1 millimeter chip to capture brain signals, turning thought-based requests into text or prompts without the need for implants.
