IoTone, Inc was created with the idea in mind to unify device intelligence. The focus at the moment is on DIY maker wearables. All of the designs will feature open hardware and open source software where posible. I am also hoping to bring in my interest in AI, Audio, Music, and alternative UX.

Conceptually I am promoting some groundbreaking ideas:
- Own your own tech stack (lately companies act like they own everything and only grant you a right to use things and feel free to take away features)
- Invest in your platforms, but invest in a forever purchase (when you buy stuff, buy stuff that will last you for your lifetime if possible. Try not to buy things that will be recycled waste in a few years. Is the company providing you will the ability to keep your gear running over time, or will they suddenly cut off support?)
- Own your data and control your privacy(where is your data going? Is the company requiring you to install their app, set up an account, and tracking you? Are they giving you control over who gets to use your data and for what? Do you own your data?)
- Deplatform (Where possible, get off platforms. Find small ways not to live in a FANG universe).


I help companies build innovative startups. I run a consultancy that works with startups building prototypes, products, MVPs, and doing R&D. Often my company will come in to help build a team while the customer works towards the next funding round. If this sounds like you, contact us at https://razortooth.biz
