Sea otters hold hands while they sleep, so the current can't pull them apart. That single image is where Otti began.
We're a small team from across Hong Kong, Macau and Shenzhen — people who've built AI, robots and products — and we kept noticing the same thing: we've never been more connected, yet more alone. Smart speakers answer questions but don't care. Cute toys are adorable but can't think.
We wanted something in between: a companion with a real AI mind and a body that expresses it — one that remembers you, senses how you feel, and reaches out first.
Otti is that companion. It sits on your desk, learns who you are over time, and gently lets you know: I'm here. Come find me.
Every Otti comes from Tidal Bay, a world of six guardian tribes, each with its own personality and glow. Adopt one, and a little guardian light comes home with you.
Every Otti is tied to a real otter habitat. Bring home a little life, and help protect where it came from — a portion of proceeds supports otter conservation.
