An AI company built on one conviction: augmentation, not replacement.

NOVARC is an AI company headquartered in Zürich, founded in 2026. We build models, agents, and tools designed to make the people who use them more capable — not more dependent. The first product ships in 2026. More will follow, all under the same conviction.

Technology that leaves people more capable.

Most AI is optimized for convenience: the system does more so the person does less. Repeated across years and millions of users, that trade has a name — cognitive outsourcing. Ability that goes unused does not hold steady. It declines.

NOVARC engineers the opposite trade. Every model, agent, and product we build is measured by what its user becomes able to do — reason more sharply, learn faster, hold more complexity in mind. Intelligence, in our view, is an object of study and engineering, and the human being is part of the system.

The rule is simple: if a technology leaves people less capable than it found them, it does not ship.

One house. Many builds.

NOVARC is an umbrella: one entity, one brand, many products over time. Rather than founding a new company for every idea, the founder builds everything under this house — the way serious builders do. The first product ships in 2026, unnamed until launch. It is the beginning of a line, not the point of the company.

One entity

NOVARC is a single company, not a portfolio of startups. Every idea worth building is built here — under one name, one identity, one standard.

Many builds

The first product ships in 2026. It will not be the last. Models, agents, and tools will follow — each held to the same conviction.

Compounding

One house accrues everything: the research, the record, the trust. Each build makes the next more credible than starting over ever could.

Six outcomes we hold our products to.

Augmentation is a claim. These are its terms — the measurable outcomes every NOVARC product is judged against.

Strengthen reasoning ability.

Increase learning speed.

Improve memory formation.

Enhance structured thinking.

Enable deeper problem-solving.

Increase the rate of original discovery.

Questions, answered.

Who founded NOVARC, and what motivated its founding?

NOVARC was founded by Pavel Abdulin in Zürich in 2026. The company began with a straightforward observation: the dominant commercial trajectory in artificial intelligence is toward systems that perform more of a person's thinking on their behalf — and the question of what that does to human capability over time is rarely taken seriously. NOVARC was built to take it seriously, and to engineer against it.

How is NOVARC different from other AI companies?

Most artificial intelligence development is oriented toward increasing system capability — better outputs, faster, with less effort required from the user. NOVARC's orientation is the opposite: increasing user capability through technology. The measure of success is not what the system produces, but what the person using it becomes able to do. That distinction shapes every research and product decision the company makes.

What does NOVARC actually build?

Models, agents, and products — under one conviction. NOVARC is not a single-product company but a house for everything its founder builds: AI systems designed to make people more capable rather than obsolete. Cognitive augmentation is one thread of that work, not its boundary. The first product is in active development; further builds will be shared as they become real.

When will NOVARC's first product be available?

The first product ships in 2026. It is not yet named publicly. Details on access, availability, and pricing will be announced ahead of launch — the waitlist is the first channel to hear.

Is NOVARC a research organization or a commercial company?

Both. NOVARC conducts original research into cognition and intelligence, and builds commercial products grounded in that research. The commercial work funds the research. The research informs the product decisions. The two are not treated as separate activities.

Is NOVARC affiliated with any university or research institution?

NOVARC operates independently. The company's research engages with published work across cognitive science, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence — including from institutions such as MIT, Carnegie Mellon, and ETH Zürich — but it is an independent research and technology company.

How can I follow NOVARC's progress?

NOVARC shares research findings, developments, and company updates on LinkedIn. Announcements regarding the first product will be made through these channels — and to the waitlist first.
