Brain-computer interface startup Sabi announced a $50 million seed round led by Khosla Ventures.
The company is developing an ordinary-looking baseball cap equipped with custom EEG sensors designed to read neural signals through hair. The goal is to translate imagined speech and intent into commands for AI systems, bypassing keyboards and voice inputs. Sabi claims its model is trained on over 100,000 hours of labeled neural recordings, described as the largest disclosed dataset of its kind.
An early prototype is scheduled to debut at CES 2027. The new funds will support dataset expansion, chip completion, and initial device manufacturing.
