Icarus

Laptop, ultraportable, 32 GB

The Mickai Icarus is the ultraportable laptop in the lineup, the lighter half of the Daedalus pair. A 14 inch 3K OLED at 120 Hz, an AMD Ryzen AI 9 mobile, an NVIDIA RTX 5060 or 5070 mobile GPU, 32 or 64 GB of DDR5, a 100 Wh battery for genuinely long unplugged sessions. The full Mickai SIOS, the cooperative of brains, the Open Audit Record, and the sandboxed upgrade channel all ship on the box. Icarus is for the student writing a dissertation, the founder commuting, the consultant on site, the carer at the table, and the operator who refuses to pay a subscription on the move. The price you pay on day one is the price you pay for life.

Mickai Icarus, the Laptop
Named after

Icarus was the son of Daedalus, the master craftsman of Greek myth, the youth who flew with wings of feathers and wax. The lighter half of the pair, the one that takes flight.

What ships on the box
Patents and substrate

Mickai is held privately by its founder, Micky Irons. One hundred and one UK patent applications have been filed against the substrate, with approximately 2,234 claims across them, on the public UK IPO register under GB2607309.8 onwards. The corpus covers the cooperative architecture, the Open Audit Record, the FIPS 204 ML-DSA-65 signing primitive, the clearance-gated retrieval, the audio dual-layer watermark, the silicon root of trust, and the host-acceptance attestation that lets the Mickai bundle migrate from one machine to another without breaking its signed chain.

Silicon roadmap

Poseidon, the Mickai Sovereign AI SoC. In-house silicon that complements the GPU fabric on every SKU. Carries the OAR signing primitive in silicon, holds the hardware identity and cryptographic root of trust, and sits between the network interface and the GPU fabric so every action that crosses the bus can be policy-checked before commit. Optional on every SKU as the silicon lands.

Pricing and availability

Pricing TBD. The price on day one is the price for life. No subscription for context or usage. Only paid upgrades through the sandboxed channel, optional.

Launch window: Late 2026
