Pocknoq — Connection you can feel

What is Pocknoq

Pocknoq is a fandom companion device that lets you feel your favorite artist's moments — with your body, not just your screen.

A comeback drops, a livestream starts, a new message lands — and instead of one more notification on a screen, a small companion at your side knocks to reach you. Press it and the moment plays as sound, with light and vibration in time. Tap it back, and your reply travels to the artist in return.

A The Problem

The moment
slips away

A bond stuck behind a screen, moments buried in a flood of news — and fans pushed outside it.

Meeting your favorite always happens on the far side of a screen. Likes and comments that vanish as you scroll — nothing you can hold, and the sense of being close fades the moment the screen goes dark.

And the news never stops — hundreds of alerts a day. Comebacks, lives, messages — the moments that truly matter get buried in the flood and simply pass by.

And when a moment comes only through a screen and sound, some fans can't receive it at all. So we changed the question — if we redesign how the moment arrives, could no one be left out?

“I can stare at my phone all day, and still nothing stays in my hands.”

A bond that lives only on a screen

“I always hear the news long after — it's all buried under alerts.”

Lost in the flood of news

“When a moment reaches you only one way, someone is always left outside it.”

B The Answer

Every sense,
every fan

We deliver the same moment through touch, light, and sound — so it reaches you, whatever your senses are.

👆

Touch — the knock

A knock you can feel

The device knocks to bring the moment. Each kind of moment has its own rhythm — so you know it's here, without looking or listening.

✨

Light — the band

Light that moves with sound

A ring of light whose brightness and rhythm move with the sound as it plays. On your desk or in a dark room, the moment catches your eye.

🔊

Sound — playback

The moment, out loud

Press the knock and the message plays as sound — the artist's voice and audio. Vibration and light move in time with it.

No fan gets a smaller version.

Nobody receives a reduced experience. Accessibility isn't an extra setting — it's how the moment reaches everyone.

C How it works

How the moment
reaches you

Not hundreds of notifications a day — a few knocks that matter.

A moment arrives

A message your artist sends directly, or an important moment a server picks from the daily noise, arrives as a signal.

It knocks to alert you

The device gives a gentle knock you feel — so you know it's here without looking at a screen.

Press to unfold it

Press it, and the moment plays as sound, with light and vibration moving in time. You choose the senses in the app.

You knock back

Knock Back — your reply gathers and travels to the artist, who can answer the fandom in return.

Tap → knock → answer. Tap your favorite and that knock gathers to the artist, and on the moments they choose, an answer comes back. Every reply voice is really recorded by the artist — the AI only picks which moment to send; it never speaks for them. Not a one-way alert, but a connection you give and get.

Pocknoq is not a conversational AI speaker. It never talks at you or listens in — it delivers the moment, and lets you answer with a knock.
The senses (touch · light · sound), the artists you wait for, the kinds of moments that matter — fans decide all of it in the app.

🎉 Comeback	A rhythmic knock	Swells bright	Chime

E The App

Device & app,

Pocknoq isn't just a device — it runs as one system with a dedicated app.

In a live moment, a Live Knock signal makes every device in the fandom light up and knock at once — so a room across the city becomes the same seat.

F One platform, every IP

A device for
every world

Pocknoq isn't a generic gadget — it's born dedicated to each IP.

The server, app, and core hardware stay a shared platform — while the enclosure is 3D printed per IP. Not one shared mold in different colors: the shell itself is made for each artist and character, along with the voice, knock patterns, and app themes. Partners get a device carrying their own world, without building one from scratch.

Shared

Shared platform

Server, app, core hardware, and patented tech stay the same — one validated engine underneath.

Tailored

IP-tailored layer

Form, colors, voice, knock patterns, and app themes are re-skinned for each artist and character.

Fast

Fast rollout

No building from scratch each time — a short cycle turns out a dedicated product per partner.

G Only Pocknoq

Why Pocknoq

Six things set it apart — the strengths only this product has.

👆

Two-way

Knock Back, a round trip

Notifications end one-way. Pocknoq comes back — you tap to reply, your reply reaches the artist, and they can answer in return. Not a receive-only device.

💛

Multi-sensory

Three senses, one design

The same moment travels through touch, light, and sound together. Missing one sense doesn't mean missing the moment — Deaf and blind fans belong to the same fandom.

🤫

No Mic

No mic, no listening in

It never talks at you or listens in. There is no always-on microphone — not a noisy smart speaker, but a quiet companion at your side. It still plays sound and voice; there's simply no mic.

☁️

Decision Engine

Server-side decision engine

Hundreds of alerts a day, curated down to the few knocks that matter. The thinking happens in the cloud — so the device stays light and lasts long.

🫳

Engineered Band

Metastructure light band

One band, three jobs — an engineered metastructure that diffuses light softly, carries the knock clearly, and absorbs everyday shocks. This craftsmanship is our core technology.

🏠

Everyday

A place in daily life

It brings the moment of a concert into every day — in your pocket and on your desk. The show ends; the connection doesn't.

Precision linear haptics · Validated by structural simulation · 2 patent applications filed for core technology

H Inclusive by design

Every one in
the same light

When one moment can be felt by everyone, no one is left outside it.

🎚️

Fans choose the senses

Turn touch, light, and sound on or off freely in the app. Pick one, or all three — the same moment.

🤟

Designed together, from day one

Deaf and blind fans were part of the design as equal fans — not as objects of accommodation. This isn't accessibility bolted on afterward.

💬

Real connection means answering

Receiving alone was never enough. With Knock Back, every fan replies the same way.

“The barrier was never the fan — it was a moment built for a single sense. Change how the moment arrives, and no one gets left out.”

Seven fans receiving the same moment each in their own way — touch+light, touch+sound, all three, light+sound, touch, light, sound

Whichever sense it reaches you by — touch, light, or sound — it's the same moment. When one sense is hard to reach, the moment still arrives, whole, in its own way — no fan gets a smaller version.

Fans sharing one moment in a golden concert crowd — a fan with a hearing aid, a fan in sunglasses, a fan holding a lightstick

Same moment. Same belonging.

When every fan feels the same moment —
no one is left outside it.

I Vision

Every moment,
connected

Concerts, fan meetings, comebacks — reaching every moment of your favorite.

🎤

Live · Access

Feel the show, in person

Cued to the stage, it renders the live in vibration, deep-bass resonance, and light. For a fan who can't easily hear, through vibration and light; for a fan who can't easily see, through vibration and sound — the same stage. (Pursued as barrier-free cooperation with organizers.)

🏠

Online Live

Live, from home

For online and virtual lives, the Main unit fully syncs — light, sound, and resonance fill the room. So the nights you couldn't be in the crowd, you don't miss the moment.

💥

Live Knock

The fandom, in one moment

During a live, a signal makes every device in the fandom glow and knock at once. Knock back instead of a “like,” and the count of fans here right now gathers on screen.

💌

Fan Events

Fan meetings & signings, kept

Bring your Main on a special day: connect through the two-way Knock Back, and keep that day's knock to replay at home. Confirmation that “my heart got through” — through vibration, no screen needed.

🗓️

Seasonal

Season & comeback packs

Every album and anniversary brings a theme pack — colors, expressions, knock patterns, light themes (over the air). The device stays the same; the connection keeps growing.

🤝

Official IP

Official IP editions

Base it freely on your own favorite and your own colors. With an official IP, the form, voice, and themes become dedicated to that world — each IP born as its own device on one shared platform.

* Some integrations are in development or depend on official partnerships. Remote linking of large offline concerts is a next step that requires securing rights.
