Hands-on AI.
Artificial intelligence has become remarkably capable, yet almost all of it is still reached through a screen and a text box. EIHEK LABS designs tactile devices that bring it into the physical world: something you can press, turn and play, which responds like an instrument rather than an oracle.
- MTXPAD A compact device for the desk and the road: an AI agent terminal, an AI-driven sampler and an expandable platform in one.
- DICE A generative model that completes rhythms, basslines and chord arrangements from the notes you play.
- MTX OS An AI-native operating system. Any AI agent can turn the pad into a new app from two sentences.

AI lives behind glass.
You type. It answers. You watch.
We'd rather hold it.
MTXPAD
So we made
something to hold.
MTXPAD is a compact device with sixteen backlit keys, three knobs, a dot-matrix screen and a microphone. It is at home on a desk and small enough to take anywhere. One object, three roles:
- 01
A desk terminal for AI agents. It sits beside your computer and shows what your agents are doing; a key press approves, a knob adjusts, and the microphone takes your voice.
- 02
An AI-driven sampler. Record or load sounds, play them on the sixteen keys, and let DICE complete the rhythm, bassline and chord arrangement around what you play.
- 03
An expandable, multi-purpose device. Through MTX OS, any AI agent can build it a new app in two sentences: a timer, a tuner, a game, a controller.

Idea 01 — DICE
Tap a beat.
It plays along.
- 01You tap a kick and a snare
- 02Press DICE
- 03It fills in the rest
White notes are yours, amber ones are DICE's. Change any of them. On MTXPAD, these 16 steps are the 16 keys.
you DICE · a toy version, running in your browser. Press Play to hear it.
Idea 02 — MTX OS
Two sentences.
A new device.
For AI to improve everyday life, it has to reach the things we actually hold. So we built MTX OS, an AI-native operating system for our hardware, in which every capability of the device is exposed as an interface an AI can call.
Add the MTX OS Skill to any AI agent and describe what you want in two sentences. The agent writes the app, installs it, and your pad becomes something it wasn't a minute ago.
