Labs Companies, Inc.

Labs Companies, Inc. (branded and doing business as Labs) is an American global superintelligence human-enhancement technology company founded in 2025 by Duránd F. Davis Jr. and Maya Elz Davis, with its headquarters in Santa Monica, California. The company's heritage traces back to 2009 in Detroit, evolving from Lavish Line Records, a boutique digital label, into LavLabs Inc., a startup studio and digital label. In 2025, Labs was formally established through a restructuring of LavLabs Inc. to serve as a parent company for a multidisciplinary innovation system. This transition moved the organization from a startup studio model to a decentralized "multilabs" structure, where its flagship consumer product, the Yuhmmy App, serves as the foundational "Social-Taste" ecosystem. Business/Product Breakdown Labs Companies, Inc. operates a specialized research and development ecosystem organized into seven core divisions: Labs Intelligence, Labs Realities, Labs Blocks, Labs Crypto, LabsX, LavLabs, and Factory5227. These divisions collectively focus on "superintelligence human-enhancement," developing technologies that serve as extensions of human senses, perception, and cognition. The company's primary consumer application, Yuhmmy, is a social-taste super app designed to allow users to discover, experience, and share culinary and sensory content. This platform is powered by proprietary Social-Taste AI Models (STAMs) and Social-Taste Agents (STAGs), creating what the company defines as "Tasteintelligence" and "Tasteimmersion" through integrated augmented and virtual reality features. The company's technology stack extends into decentralized infrastructure and immersive hardware. Labs Intelligence focuses on foundational AI and agentic frameworks, while Labs Realities develops the Yuhmmyverse and spatial-taste experiences. Through Labs Blocks and Labs Crypto, the firm engineers blockchain-based digital economies for sensory exchange.
