KORE. is a startup operating at the intersection of product design and human optimization. Powered by the Reddit community, the largest unfiltered focus group on earth, it deploys the KORE. Bot to scan for opportunities: posts written by people who want to improve, take control, and get back on track. These posts feed the KORE. Object Engine, which reads the low, tags the need, and ships the fix.
By embracing the codes of over-productivism, this critical fiction exposes the silent logic that blames the individual. Reddit posts become mirrors of late-stage capitalism, and the result is an extraction process where emotional needs are categorized, optimized, and resold as products. Seductive in aesthetics, absurd in function, unsettling because these processes and objects might already exist.
