Know your cat is okay when you’re away.
For the cat parents who still open the camera “just to check.” Konomi is a soft, cat-first reassurance camera being built to help you know when your kitty was last seen, whether they showed up near food or litter, and if anything unusual might need your attention.
Normal cameras help, but they still leave you wondering.
You open the camera. Empty room. No cat. So you check another angle. Maybe the food bowl. Maybe the litter area. Maybe you wait and hope they appear.
A calmer way to check in.
Instead of making you scrub through empty footage, Konomi is being designed to surface the moments that matter.
Last seen
Know when your cat was last spotted, even if they are not in frame right now.
Food-area activity
See whether your kitty showed up around meal times or near the food bowl.
Litter-area activity
Get a clearer sense of whether there was pee or poop activity while you were away.
Unusual moments
Review moments that may need attention, like possible mess, vomit, or long absence.
Away summary
A simple check-in summary so you can stop worrying and get back to your day.
Live view
When you still want to see them yourself, open the camera and check in directly.
Less guessing. More “okay, they’re fine.”
Konomi turns scattered camera moments into one reassuring story, gathered across your kitty monitors.
Designed to feel at home, not like CCTV.
Konomi is designed to look less like a security camera and more like a quiet little home object. Soft rounded body. Warm matte finish. Subtle kitty-like corners. A discreet lens. A slim wall mount.
Small, soft, and easy to place.
A compact wall-mounted monitor with a warm matte finish and a slim mount, designed to quietly blend into your home.
Made for cat parents who worry a little more.
Especially if you have a kitten, recently adopted, moved homes, use a cat sitter, have a cat that hides, or already use CCTV but still cannot find them.
Your sitter visits once a day. What about the other 23 hours?
Cat sitters are great. Family updates help too. But when you are away, there is still a lot of time in between visits. That is usually when the worry creeps in.
Konomi is being built to give you a little more peace of mind between human check-ins — especially around food, litter, hiding, and unusual behaviour.
“I just want to know they’re eating, using the litter, and acting normal.”
A common pattern from early cat owner and sitter conversations.Live view when you need it. Privacy when you don’t.
Konomi does not replace live view. It makes live view more useful by helping you know when to check and what moments to review.
Planned privacy features include blackout schedules, simple controls, and cat-focused summaries so your home does not feel watched.
Help shape Konomi as an early tester.
Konomi is currently an early prototype being built in Singapore. We are looking for cat owners who are open to sharing how they check on their cats, what makes them anxious, and what would actually help them feel reassured when away.
Early prototype access, tester updates, and a chance to shape what Konomi becomes.
- Early prototype access
- Discounted tester pricing if it is a good fit
- Direct input into features
- A chance to shape a cat-first product from the beginning
Konomi is not a medical device and does not diagnose health issues.

FAQ
Is Konomi available now?
Not yet. Konomi is currently an early prototype. We are collecting feedback from cat owners before deciding what to build and test next.
Is this a medical device?
No. Konomi is not a medical device and does not diagnose health issues. It is being designed to help owners notice activity patterns and unusual moments more easily.
Does this replace a cat sitter?
No. Cat sitters, family, and vets still matter. Konomi is meant to give extra reassurance between human check-ins.
Will it record all the time?
The exact recording setup is still being tested. Privacy is a major part of the product direction, including planned blackout schedules and simple controls.
How is this different from normal CCTV?
Normal cameras show footage. Konomi is being built to surface cat-specific moments like when your cat was last seen, whether they appeared near food or litter, and whether something unusual may need your attention.
Who is this for?
Cat owners who feel anxious when away, especially those with kittens, newly adopted cats, cats that hide, cats with health concerns, or cats staying home while the owner travels.
