Poem Booth Launched at Lowlands 2023

We're thrilled to announce that the first version of Poem Booth has been unveiled at Lowlands Festival 2023!

Lowlands is one of the Netherlands' most iconic music and arts festivals, and it was the perfect stage to introduce Poem Booth to the world. Festival-goers lined up to have their photo taken and receive a personalized AI-generated poem — all within seconds.

Poem Booth was developed in collaboration with Maarten Inghels, the former city poet of Antwerp, whose poetic sensibility helped shape the voice and style of the AI. The technical development was done together with Hugo Visser of Little Robots.

The response was overwhelming. People laughed, cried, and shared their poems with friends. Many came back for a second or third poem. It confirmed what we believed from the start: that AI can bring poetry closer to people in a way that feels personal and meaningful.

This is just the beginning. We're excited to bring Poem Booth to more events, festivals, and venues across Europe.
