Beach Labs is where we explore emerging technologies by building real things with them.
We’re driven by curiosity, but it’s not curiosity for its own sake. Every Labs project is an opportunity to go deep on a technology, understand its strengths and limitations firsthand, and develop a practical perspective that we can bring to our consulting work with clients. The two sides feed each other: client challenges surface questions that Labs helps us answer, and Labs discoveries open up new possibilities for the people we work with.
The focus areas shift as the landscape evolves, but right now we’re spending most of our time on AI and machine learning (from computer vision to large language models and agentic systems) and immersive and spatial computing. If something new and genuinely interesting shows up tomorrow, we’ll explore that too.
What you’ll find in this category:
- Early-stage ideas and prototypes shared while they’re still taking shape
- Technical walkthroughs of what we’re learning as we build
- Honest accounts of what works, what doesn’t, and what surprised us
- Open questions where we’d genuinely value community input
Some of these projects grow into products. Some become foundational to how we advise clients. Some don’t go anywhere, and that’s fine. The point is to stay close to the technology, build with it, and share what we learn along the way.
If any of this resonates with work you’re doing or problems you’re thinking about, jump in. This is meant to be a conversation, not a broadcast.
