Core

Keeping everything in sync. Automatically.

The Tree is the dependable backbone of our ecosystem — and yes, it’s why we’re called Tree’d. It’s the computing brain that securely distributes audio tracks, AI knowledge, and firmware updates to every handset over the local network. It keeps everything synced, while also charging and displaying the handsets so they’re ready and inviting the moment visitors walk in.

Function

Modern infrastructure for a modern audio guide

The Tree creates a dependable foundation by handling all computation and file transfers locally, keeping the system extremely fast, stable, and independent of external services. At the same time, it simplifies the start and end of every museum day: one place for charging, updates, and organization. Staff always know where devices are, what state they’re in, and that everything is ready without manual checks or extra steps.

Design

Tailored to your museum, down to the last detail.

Every museum has its own character — and the Tree is built to respect that. We customize its form, finish, and materials to blend seamlessly with your galleries, whether that means a minimal acrylic structure, a sculptural metal piece, or a design created in collaboration with a local artist of your choosing. Because it lives in a cultural space, we only use best-in-class materials and fabrication standards.

Custom Aesthetics

We adapt the Tree’s form, finish, and color palette to match your galleries — from minimalist acrylic to sculptural metal or a fully bespoke design.

Built to Last

We build the Tree from durable, high-quality materials that maintain their appearance under daily use, and it’s fully covered for the entire duration of an agreement.

Fully Scalable

The Tree is available in many configurations based on how many handsets a museum needs. Whether its 20 or 200 Handsets, we scale the layout accordingly.

Artist Collaboration

The Tree can be created in collaboration with a local artist or designer, ensuring the piece reflects your museum’s identity.

Safety & Connectivity

Secure, dependable, and protected at every layer.

The Tree operates on your museum’s local network, giving the entire system the security advantages of an on-site, closed environment. All communication between the Tree and the handsets is encrypted, authenticated, and confined to your internal network — never exposed to the public internet. We use multiple layers of verification, secure access controls, and protected communication channels to ensure content, AI knowledge, and updates remain fully safeguarded. Even if your internet connection goes down, Tree’d continues to run uninterrupted, with all processing happening locally.
