Aether is the first AI air purifier that runs on the very things it cleans. A living microbial fuel cell digests CO₂, VOCs and PM2.5 — and turns them into the electricity that powers the machine.

The breakthrough
Inside Aether lives a microbial fuel cell: thousands of engineered bacteria that breathe the carbon in your air the way a plant breathes light. Every breath the device takes feeds the colony. Every electron they release lights the room.
How it works
Aether draws in 240 m³/h of room air through a medical-grade pre-intake.
Laser spectroscopy + e-nose identify 47 pollutant classes in real time.
Pollutants pass through a microbial fuel cell stack that harvests electrons from the chemistry of decay.
Clean air returns to the room. The harvested electrons power the device itself.
What's inside
A self-healing MFC mesh that digests airborne toxins and converts the chemical gradient into clean electrical current — no plug required.
On-device neural model predicts pollutant surges 40 minutes ahead, ramping intake and rerouting airflow before you even notice.
Replaceable bio-cartridges made from mycelium. Drop the spent cell in soil — it composts in 6 weeks. No plastic, no waste.
Magnetically levitated fan assembly runs at 14 dB. Quieter than a sleeping breath, even at full clean-cycle.
A living LED ring reads the room's air quality as a soft gradient of light — a glance tells you everything.
Every breath is logged. Export your home's air story as a privacy-first ledger you actually own.
Reserve Aether for $200 today. The rest ships when your unit rolls off the line — first batch ships in September.
