Evolution isn’t optional. Today, Nexstem becomes Anthriq.

‍

‍

We started with a simple but ambitious idea: prosthetics controlled by thought.
At the time, it felt futuristic, and in many ways, it was.
As we worked on it, we learned something fundamental about deep-tech problems: they do not stay fixed. As understanding deepens, the real problem reveals itself, and you evolve alongside it.

‍
Our work with mind-controlled prosthetics led us further into the electrophysiology of the human body, into the raw signals that govern movement, attention, stress, and intent. Over time, it became clear that we weren’t just building a product. We were trying to answer a larger question: how do you reliably read the human body itself?

‍
And that problem wasn’t unique to us. It was one the entire ecosystem was grappling with.

Why infrastructure. Why now.

Despite rapid advances in AI and computing, human biosignals remain largely inaccessible. They are locked inside research labs, dependent on expensive equipment, or constrained by fragile, one-off setups. Across gaming, healthcare, defense, wellness, neurotech, and education, teams see the potential. What’s missing is shared, reliable infrastructure.
As a result, everyone ends up rebuilding the same foundations from scratch.

‍
Over the years, we have worked to solve these foundational problems through repeated iterations and learning what actually works at scale. We did this so others would not have to.

‍

When we could not find hardware that captured biosignals with high precision without friction, we built it. When existing software did not match how developers actually work, we built our own. When clean, structured biosignal datasets were hard to access, we created the data layer ourselves.

‍
What emerged is a modular stack designed like building blocks. It allows teams to focus on what they want to create instead of rebuilding the basics. The result is faster development, fewer compromises, and a clearer path from idea to deployment.

‍

For us, biosignal infrastructure is not a buzzword. It is the category we have spent years building toward. The timing matters. As companies like Meta, Apple, Neuralink, and others push toward more human-aware interfaces, the need for this foundation has become impossible to ignore.
The question now is not whether this shift will happen, but who will build on it.

What changes. What stays.

We have a new name, a new identity, and a new way of presenting ourselves to the world. What has not changed is who we are.

‍
We are still the same team, working on some of the hardest problems at the intersection of biology and engineering. We are still driven by the belief that powerful technology should be accessible, not locked behind barriers. And we are still very much here, reachable in the same ways you knew us as Nexstem.
‍
The mission that shaped Nexstem, to rethink what it means to be human in a world of intelligent systems, remains central. As Anthriq, we are extending that mission toward building systems that feel like a natural extension of you.

Anthriq_‍

_{Derived from “Anthros” (humanity) and “IQ” (intelligence)
Pronounced: an-three-k}

‍

Anthriq represents the convergence of the two. More than a name, it reflects our intent to build technology that understands biosignals and responds to human intent, rather than forcing people to adapt to rigid interfaces.

‍

This rebrand is not cosmetic. It is the outcome of years spent following the problem where it led us, and realizing that our identity needed to reflect the scale and direction of what we are building.

‍

If you’re curious about how that thinking took shape, from first principles to final design decisions, we’ve put the full story together in our Design Journey.

For those who have known us. For those meeting us now.

If you have known us as Nexstem, thank you. Your trust and support made this evolution possible. Much of what you valued about us remains the same, even as we take on a larger role.

‍
If you are discovering us for the first time, welcome.

‍
In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, Anthriq exists to make human intelligence legible and actionable. We build infrastructure to read from and write to the human body, translating biosignals into systems that can respond meaningfully.
This is how we turn human intent into action.

‍

This marks the beginning of our next chapter.
We invite you to explore what we have built so far, what we’re building next, and what becomes possible when biology and technology are designed to work together.
