Computer
One computer. Every part aware of the rest.
BIRTH brings the desktop, applications, files, search, notifications and settings into one environment that understands what you are doing.
01The surfaces
Familiar places. A different kind of computer.
You will recognise the parts of a computer. What changes is that each one knows about the others — and about the work you are doing.
02One system
What a whole computer makes possible.
Ask once
A request can reach any application. You do not have to know which one holds the answer.
Context that travels
The file, task or page you are in moves with you from one application to the next.
One place for approvals
Anything that needs your authority arrives the same way, whichever application asked.
One set of permissions
What BIRTH may read, change or send is decided once, in Settings, and respected everywhere.
Updates as a system
The computer improves as one product, so applications and intelligence stay in step.
Devices and services
Connected hardware and accounts join through the same authority boundary as everything else.
03Where it stands
Honest about how far along it is.
BIRTH is a computer in the making. This is what that means today.
Today
An integrated environment
- BIRTH is developed as one environment that runs on an existing host operating system.
- It is not publicly released.
In progress
The surfaces on this page
- The desktop, applications and shared systems described here are being built and refined.
- Product captures will replace these schematics as each surface is ready to show.
Direction
A more complete computer
- BIRTH takes on more of the system as each part is proven — not before.
