The Affective Computing Engine

Emotion, measured in milliseconds — not guessed from biometrics

We refuse to fake empathy through surveillance. Instead we read the emotional spectrum hidden in language and behaviour: prosody, pace, topic continuity, context.

01

Multimodal Emotion Recognition

Deep neural networks model speech prosody — tempo, pitch fluctuation, timbre and formant shifts — to classify confusion, frustration, excitement and more.

02

Semantic Field Mapping

Our proprietary mapping algorithm reads language rhythm and topic continuity to anticipate emotional needs across family, workplace and social contexts.

03

Dual-Core LLM Architecture

Situational awareness built on DeepSeek and Doubao foundation models, tuned by a decade of high-concurrency systems engineering.

04

Proactive Care Mechanism

Multi-source fusion of voice, behaviour and environment lets the system sense a need before it is spoken — preventive, not reactive.

05

Cross-Device Continuity

One unified emotional interaction platform spanning smart speakers, displays, in-car units and workplace assistants.

06

Privacy-First by Principle

No biometric monitoring used to simulate empathy. Emotion is inferred from voice and behaviour alone, with data handled under strict minimisation.

Why it matters: only about 12% of commercial AI systems today have any basic emotional responsiveness — and 79% of urban residents say smart devices have made them feel more emotionally distant. Doumao is built to close that gap.

About Us

A decade of engineering, redirected toward how people feel

Shanghai Doumao Engine Technology Service Co., Ltd. began in third-party payments — working with leading payment firms across Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai on encryption, high-concurrency transaction processing and distributed architecture. That decade forged both the data-scale engineering discipline and the team behind today's AI pivot.

  • Payments infrastructure era

    Deep partnerships with top-tier payment enterprises; mastery of security encryption, high-concurrency processing and distributed systems.

  • Strategic pivot to AI

    A decisive shift into three core domains: children's education, intelligent interaction, and emotional value.

  • First product launch

    Bean-Cat Sprite ships — the company's first affective AI device for children, reported by Xinhua News Agency.

  • Full-scene roadmap

    Expanding into workplace stress management, outdoor entertainment and tech-lifestyle verticals.

True intelligence isn't a pile of code — it's a deep reading of a person. The star that blinks in a child's eyes. The warmth on a late-night desk. The sense of security a parent can reach out and touch.
