Hardware

Software for the Mac by your TV.

An Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 15 or later, plugged into a television. KITCHEN COURT does not ship a box. The installer sets up the house; the phones people already carry do the rest.

Get KITCHEN COURT What it costs

Kart Royale on a television: a red kart on the starting grid under a sunset, a small label reading Codex, place 8, lap 1 of 3, and KITCHEN COURT’s join square in the corner. — One race on KITCHEN COURT’s own screens: the game on the TV, its controls on a phone. The driver is an AI seat.

The same race’s controls on a phone: Codex, place 8, lap 1 of 3, 0 km/h, a Drive stick and Drift, Item and Rear view keys. — One race on KITCHEN COURT’s own screens: the game on the TV, its controls on a phone. The driver is an AI seat.

What you need

The Mac: An Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 15 or later. The one we build on is a Mac mini. You buy the Mac. KITCHEN COURT is the software, and its installer sets up the house: no setup window, no account, no code.
The television: Anything with HDMI. A sound bar or the TV’s own speakers. The Mac’s microphone or any USB one, if you want to talk to it.
The phones: Whatever people already have. Scan the square on the TV, type a name, and the phone is a controller, in its own browser. Nothing installed, nothing left behind. The phone that types the six digits the TV shows becomes the owner and gets the house’s settings.
The AI: Claude, Codex or Grok, with that vendor’s CLI already installed and already logged in on the Mac — Claude, Codex, Grok. KITCHEN COURT sells no intelligence. It ships no model, resells none, and does not sign the CLI in. Without a CLI, games, watching and listening still work. Making does not.
The network: The phones on the same Wi‑Fi as the Mac. Local play needs nothing more. Getting online, to play from away and share, opens soon.

What comes next

Mac today, Raspberry Pi 5 next. Windows and Linux are planned after that. KITCHEN COURT does not ship hardware, a kit, or a Mac with a sticker on it.
