About Butlerian Labs

Complexity isn't a feeling. It's structure.

If the structure is visible, the system becomes usable.

Our bet

Human computer interaction

The next step in HCI is not "more AI."

It's interfaces that let humans see, touch, and verify what the system is doing.

Rejections

Anything that dulls cognition

Dashboards that flatten reality into charts.

Black-box assistants that can't show their path.

Abstraction as default.

What we build

Interfaces that make complexity legible.

Human-first interactions for navigating ideas, systems, and evidence.

Interactive structures that attach evidence and relationships.

Constraints

Human, intuitive, and physical

  • Structure before automation
  • Evidence must remain visible
  • Interaction should feel physical
  • Outputs should travel
