We're Dory.
We envision a home ecosystem where technology doesn't demand your attention, it works invisibly to deliver peace of mind and order.
Why we exist
Leaving home is a small moment with a lot going on. The badge you always forget, the lunch in the fridge, the umbrella you'll only think of when you're already outside. The thing you swore you'd remember this time.
Phone reminders fire too early and get swiped away on reflex. Post-its become wallpaper after two weeks. AirTag tells you where your keys are. Not what you were supposed to bring.
Dory is a quiet object for that moment. A checkpoint at the one place you always pass through, at the one moment you can still turn around.
Our approach
Five principles we keep coming back to.
01
Simplicity first
Fewer steps. Less friction. Nothing in the way of leaving.
02
Belongs in the home
An object you'd want on your console, not a gadget.
03
Trust by default
Your data stays yours. No surveillance, no surprises.
04
Learn with people
Real testers, honest feedback, weekly iteration.
05
Build quietly
Ship when it's right. Talk when we have something to say.
The team
behind Dory.
A small, cross-functional team across product design, software, and business. Trained between Milano and Melbourne, building Dory together from the ground up.
