Self-Referential Hippocampal–Amygdalar Recursive Model

A machine that remembers, feels, and anticipates.

sharm is a brain-inspired world model. Thirteen neuroscience-grounded modules — from hippocampus to amygdala — fused into one architecture that understands the moment you're living in.

Why we build

Today's models read the world.
They don't live in it.

Large language models compress the internet, but they forget your life the moment it happens. Flip the switch to see the same moment through an LLM — and through sharm.

01

Memory

MTWTFSSMonToday

A hippocampal loop links days into living context.

02

Affect

Threat
Valence
Arousal

Threat, valence and arousal, read as separate axes.

03

Anticipation

nownext

A forward model projects the next moment before you ask.

What we build to solve it: a world model with a brain's architecture — one that separates memories like a hippocampus, weighs them like an amygdala, and projects the near future before you ask.

How does it work

One loop: perceive, remember, feel, anticipate

Perceive

See the moment

sharm encodes each scene the way a visual cortex would — objects, people, motion and place fused into one world state, on-device.

Remember

Bind it to memory

A hippocampal loop separates, stores and later recalls episodes — so context from yesterday shapes what matters today.

Feel

Appraise how it matters

Amygdalar heads read threat, valence and arousal, giving every moment an emotional weight instead of a flat label.

Anticipate

Predict what's next

A forward model projects the near future, letting sharm notice, prepare and speak before you have to ask.

Use cases

From consumer memory to city-scale awareness

Consumer

A companion that remembers your life

Flow today

sharm notices the people, places and things that recur in your days, then surfaces the right memory at the right moment — 'you met Rama here last spring.'

How it evolves

Grows from gentle recall into an anticipatory copilot that plans errands, spots first-visits and briefs you before meetings.

B2B

Situational intelligence for operations

Flow today

Ego-view cameras stream to sharm's world model, which flags anomalies, tracks assets and narrates what's happening across a site in real time.

How it evolves

Moves from passive monitoring to predictive dispatch — anticipating bottlenecks and routing the right response automatically.

Government

Context-aware public safety

Flow today

sharm fuses multi-source sensing with privacy-preserving, on-device redaction so responders get grounded situational awareness without raw data leaving the edge.

How it evolves

Extends to city-scale anticipation: early-warning patterns for crowds, infrastructure and disaster response.
