Your chair. A different day.

Kiso Axis follows the way you sit. When a drift lasts, one private cue beneath you brings your body back into the picture.

Try the quiet cue

Movement is not a mistake

Your body moves. That's the point.

Cross your legs. Reach. Turn. Kiso Axis stays quiet. Only a drift that stays earns a cue.

  1. Cross your legs.

    Pressure shifts to one side. It's ordinary. No cue.

    Moment 1 of 7
  2. Reach forward.

    Load slides toward the front edge, then comes back. No cue.

    Moment 2 of 7
  3. Turn to talk.

    A diagonal shift that passes. Kiso Axis keeps waiting.

    Moment 3 of 7
  4. Reach for coffee.

    One side carries you for a moment. Still quiet.

    Moment 4 of 7
  5. Then it stays.

    Twenty minutes later, the same lean hasn't moved. Pressure and time, not a frozen pose.

    Moment 5 of 7
  6. One pulse. Beneath you.

    A private signal inside the cover. Nobody else knows. No alarm, no lecture.

    Moment 6 of 7
  7. Back to you. Back to the work.

    You settle. Kiso Axis goes quiet and learns from how you returned.

Attention on the work. Awareness in the seat.

You move.Kiso Axis listens.

Your ordinary pressure becomes its starting point.

Attention on the work. Awareness in the seat.

A shift isn’ta signal.

Reach. Turn. Cross your legs. Natural movement passes.

Attention on the work. Awareness in the seat.

One small cue.Right under you.

Attention on the work. Awareness in the seat.

You return.It remembers.

Every return teaches Kiso Axis when to be quieter.

Feel it for yourself

Inside the cover

Less on your mind. More beneath you.

6–8 mm. Removable in one piece. It lies on top of your seat; your chair keeps its shape.

Kiso Axis cover separated into its layers: textile surface, pressure-sensing layer, haptic layer and base
  1. Feel

    A familiar place to work.

    A flexible textile surface that lies flat on the seat you already have.

  2. Sense

    One less thing to monitor.

    A pressure layer reads contact, balance and time while you stay with the work.

  3. Cue

    A quiet way back.

    A localised haptic layer under you. Felt by you, not heard by the room.

Lose yourself in the work.

A reach, a turn, a crossed leg. No interruption.

Contact changes. The chair stays yours.
Move

A body in motion. A seat that listens.

A forward reach is not a forward slouch. Explore the movement and its illustrated pressure pattern together.

A moment

Illustrative values, not measurements.

Illustrated body and companion view, rendered from one clock. Time is compressed. These are not live sensor readings or a recording of the finished app.

A purposeful reach

Forward lean

Hinge toward the desk, then return. A forward outline alone does not tell you whether someone is slouching. Ordinary movement stays quiet.

The difference is time

Movement passes. No cue.

Stay with the work. Make room for life.

  1. AI-generated: a designer working with a subtly tense expression

    Absorbed

    The idea is still there.

    You're trying to stay with it. But tension has started taking a little of your attention.

  2. AI-generated: the same person pausing with a hand at their left hip

    Notice

    You don't have to push through.

    A held breath. A hand at your hip. A moment away from the screen. Discomfort deserves your attention—not a verdict about your posture.

  3. AI-generated: the same person taking an unforced seated pause

    A little room

    A pause that belongs to you.

    Shift. Unclench. Step away if you need to. Kiso Axis's quiet cue is designed to invite awareness; what happens next stays yours.

  4. AI-generated: the same person listening attentively over dinner

    Beyond the desk

    Someone has your attention.

    The conversation. The small smile. The part of the day that was never about the work.

A day with Kiso Axis

AI-generated scene studies. Not customer stories or evidence of pain relief. Kiso Axis's cue is an invitation to notice—not a diagnosis or treatment.

Friends sharing an evening after the working day

Finish the work. Not yourself.

The conversation. The people. The evening you still want to be part of.
