BAWES Universe, where people and AI work together

My team and I have been building and working inside BAWES Universe for the past year. It started from a frustration with how fragmented online work has become. Our team, tools, meetings, communities, data, and AI conversations all lived in separate apps. We wanted one persistent environment we could actually enter and share.

For the past year, my team and I have been building and collaborating within BAWES Universe, a platform designed to seamlessly integrate work and AI interactions. The idea for BAWES stemmed from the frustration of having work-related tools, meetings, and communications scattered across different applications. We envisioned a single, persistent digital environment where individuals could enter, interact, and share resources.

BAWES allows users to construct Universes composed of interlinked Worlds and Rooms, enabling avatars to navigate, engage in natural proximity video and spatial audio conversations, collaborate on projects, stream presentations, and interact with AI bots that are connected to real-world tools via MCP. This spatial foundation expands upon WorkAdventure, our previous project, transforming it into an open-source platform that caters to individuals, businesses, communities, and AI agents.

To experience BAWES, users can simply access it via their web browser and explore the spaces created by others. The BAWES Universe concept is being tested, and feedback is particularly sought after regarding the first-time user experience, whether the concept feels valuable rather than gimmicky, and how to encourage users to return.
