About Tap
Reinventing how humans interact with machines.

Founders
A century of imaging and interaction.

What we believe
How we build.
Inclusive by design.
Tap was built from the start to be operated one-handed, without sight, without speech. Accessibility isn't a feature — it's the foundation.
On-device, always.
Gesture detection runs locally. No cloud calls. No telemetry. Your data stays on your wrist.
Open SDKs.
Our SDKs are Apache 2.0 licensed and open on GitHub. We want the next generation of input to be built in the open.
