10y shipping hardware products. Now building physical AI for non-technical and power users @fleurirdotai 🌱

about me -

[Alex @alex404]

I’ve been building hardware for over 10 years, and somehow my latest project is a flower!

Fleur is a mechatronic AI companion you can talk to for everyday help or to manage your AI agents. I’m building it solo and will share every step here in public 🌱

@AmolParikh10 Cool, How is the growth going?

@bohdan_exe What a day to be alive 🙌

[Alex @alex404]

A lot of you showed up in the last 24 hours, so here it's a bit of my stories!

I built a motorbike on my balcony at 17.

Then I built a bedroom on that same balcony and slept there for 18 months, because the apartment had become a workshop.

I never got an engineering degree but managed to get my first prototyping job by asking a company for a brief and coming back a week later with the working prototype. They hired me.

After that for 5 years I ran an R&D and 3d printing manufacturing company (consumer products, industrial groups,...)

Then I fucked it up and lost the company, my house and a ton of money. It felt like a death in the family.

It took me a year before I wanted to build anything again.

Now I’m back, building a robotic flower you can talk to.
All I wanted was something that told me when my AI agent was done. It now has moving petals, a stem that bends, and apps allowing to control all your devices.

yeah I am still very bad at keeping a project small and simple!

Today, I’m sharing something I made almost 3 years ago, this little character was for an app I was working on, way before orb-like characters became a thing in mainstream AI agent products.

Somehow, it’s now becoming Fleur’s digital character, the same one you’ll find as the main head of the physical flower 🌱
