Our mission

The future of mobility

Mobility is confidence.

We bring exoskeleton technology out of the laboratory and into everyday life, around the world.

What we found

Independent research and reporting, not a Kairos product.

Outdoors · Stanford, 20229% faster, 17% less energyA research ankle exoskeleton, after one hour of everyday walking. Nature

Kairos is the bridge

καιρός From Ancient Greek: the right moment.

Two decades of research, carried into everyday life.

“Since the early 2000s, researchers have been trying to develop lower-limb exoskeletons that augment human mobility…”

Sawicki et al., review of the field, 2020

By the end of 2019, 23 published studies had shown designs that reduce the energy it takes to walk or run.

How they work

  1. 01SenseSensors read the rhythm of every step.
  2. 02AssistA motor adds gentle support at precisely the right moment.
  3. 03ReleaseThen it lets go. Your stride remains your own.
