Lora DiCarlo started in 2017. Our premier device was inspired by the experience and persistence of our founder and CEO, Lora Haddock DiCarlo, and developed in partnership with Oregon State University's Robotics & Engineering Lab. Things really got hot when we won a coveted robotics innovation award from the Consumer Technology Association. When the award was rescinded (what?!), it kickstarted a critical public conversation about gender equity in tech and the right to pleasure for all people. Ever since, we’ve continued working to change censored and archaic ways of thinking across industries, categories, and the media. To reach our goals, we’ve brought together a passionate group of people with diverse perspectives in design, engineering, and inclusivity. And ultimately, we’ve created more than a company — we’ve created a rallying cry.
