Pebble is a companion AI embodied as a “stone,” inspired by the Chinese expression “when the water recedes, the stones emerge,” symbolizing clarity. I imagine the internet as an ever-flowing ocean, while Pebble rests quietly beneath the surface, filtering distractions, reducing mindless browsing, and helping users focus on what truly matters.
Building on the existing logo, the visual system draws inspiration from waves, flowing water, and ripples, translating their calm movements into the interface. Rather than constantly demanding attention, Pebble offers quiet companionship and subtle feedback to encourage healthier digital habits.
