AI Products for Accessibility and Personal Autonomy
IliciLabs builds local-first AI apps for hearing, vision, language, learning, communication, seniors, and personal autonomy.
Vision, reading, and understanding
Future products may explore OCR, simplified reading, image description, smart magnification, and private assistants for understanding visual or text content.
Language, communication, and learning
The direction includes tools for translation, simplification, learning support, visual routines, and communication support in real contexts.
Seniors and daily autonomy
Small, clear apps for seniors and families: reminders, calls, conversation understanding, and guided steps without unnecessary complexity.
Design principles
Local-first
Privacy and control when voice, images, routines, or sensitive data are involved.
Human-centered
The person and the concrete task come first; AI comes second.
Practical
Small, measurable, useful products; not endless demos.
The same thinking applied to companies
Carlos also applies this thinking to AI process automation: mapping real workflows, designing agents with human supervision, and automating without losing control.
