James Babcock

I’m the Founder & CEO of Ori AI Technologies, a company building a new category of technology focused on emotional intelligence across humans, education, and animal health. We’re developing the world’s first Emotional AI Operating System, a unified intelligence platform that helps people and animals stay safer, healthier, and better understood through real-time biometric and behavioral insights. In education, Ori supports students and teachers by identifying stress patterns, emotional load, focus shifts, and cognitive overload as they happen, not to replace educators, but to give them visibility and support they’ve never had before. It adapts to each individual and aligns with the world kids live in today, not the world adults remember. At the same time, we’re transforming agriculture through Ori Cattle, our smart livestock health monitoring system. Ori Cattle delivers early calving alerts, heat detection, stress signals, and long-range monitoring, helping ranchers protect animal health and reduce losses across real working operations in North America. The same emotional-intelligence foundation that supports students also helps ranchers understand herd health earlier and act faster. One intelligence. Multiple industries. Real-world impact. Ori is being built across education, mental wellness, agriculture, safety, and families, because emotional intelligence isn’t limited to one environment. Humans need it. Kids need it. Communities need it. And so do the systems that support them. The future of technology is emotional. The future of learning is real-time. The future of safety and wellbeing is proactive, not reactive. This is the world we’re building. If you’re an educator, rancher, founder, partner, or innovator shaping the next generation of wellbeing and intelligence, I’d love to connect. — James Babcock Founder & CEO, Ori AI Technologies
