Building tomorrow.Chasing wonder.
I'm Leah, founder of MachinePulse. I build consumer AI, follow strange ideas past the obvious, and stay close to whatever makes humans feel more alive.
Enter the log“I've never been interested in a future without soul.”
Technology should make the world feel larger—not flatten it. The products worth building should carry curiosity, courage, and a little bit of magic.
THIS IS A RECORD OF THE EXPEDITION.

the frontier.
Notes on intelligence, culture, people, and making the unfamiliar real.
Could Jev Be AI’s ‘Bilaterian Moment’?
A thought about early animals, the ability to steer, and what changes when AI can make small decisions inside real products.
02 / The Expedition
Things with
a pulse.
Turning frontier technology into products people can actually feel.
MachinePulse
A company exploring how frontier intelligence can become part of a more vivid, connected human life.
Karpo
A proactive AI for discovering places, experiencing cities, and finding the people worth sharing them with.
Field Notes
Stories from the frontier of models, culture, consumer behavior, and the beautifully strange work of starting from zero.
03 / Origin Story
Founder. Builder.
Earthling, for now.
I'm driven by starfields, exceptional human art, and the belief that creation is one of our best forms of adventure.
I'm the founder and CEO of MachinePulse, building Karpo—a proactive AI for real-world experiences. Before that, I worked across model strategy and consumer products at ByteDance / Doubao and Kuaishou.
I like taking frontier technology out of the lab and giving it a human heartbeat. When I'm not building, I'm probably inside a story, at a rock show, on a long trail, or chasing the next frame.
