About Sandbar

Sandbar is an interface company in New York City. We aim to bridge gaps, to better navigate the world around & inside each of us. Our north star is self extension.

Our team has built consumer products across Meta, CTRL-labs, Google, Apple, Fitbit, Peloton, and Equinox.

Our first product, Stream, is a new way to capture thoughts—a private voice ring and conversational notepad.

Stream has been featured in WSJ, Bloomberg, Fast Company, and Wired, and begins shipping in Summer '26.
