Join early access.
Stride is a concept we are building toward 2030 – a powered exoskeleton designed to share the work of standing, balancing, and walking. It is not for sale, and it is not yet a cleared medical device. Join the early-access list to follow our honest progress and be among the first contacted when prototypes, trials, and pre-orders are real.
Joining is free. There is no payment, no card, and no commitment. We will not ask for medical details here, and we will never give medical advice by email. We will send honest development updates, and reach out first when Stride is ready for the next step. Unsubscribe any time; we never sell your details.
Built in the open, milestone by milestone.
Where Stride is today and what has to be proven – including clinical validation and the regulatory pathway – before it ships. We’ll keep this honest as it changes.
Concept and industrial design
Stride (MM-1) form and system language locked – FeatherFrame frame, LiftDrive joints, IntentSense control, TrueBalance stability. Renders, ergonomics, and human-centered design only; this is a concept, not a shipping device.
CompleteActuation and safety bench proving
Validating whether LiftDrive can deliver useful, safe assistance at the hip and knee within a wearable weight and power budget. Honestly the hardest open problem – torque, timing, efficiency, and the SoftStop fail-safes under active test.
In progress nowGait and balance prototypes
Supervised prototype trials to prove IntentSense responsiveness and TrueBalance stability across different bodies and gaits, in a controlled setting and alongside movement specialists. Assistance levels and comfort characterized honestly.
PlannedClinical validation and regulatory pathway
Structured studies with clinical partners and the beginning of the regulatory process that assistive and medical devices must pass. No safety or benefit claims are made final until this work supports them.
PlannedStride – targeted release
Intended availability of the MM-1 if – and only if – the assistance, safety, and validation targets hold. Everything on this site is a design goal, not a guarantee; we will publish what actually ships and what it is cleared to do.
