BLUESKEYE AI and Enchanted Tools Partner to Refine Socially Intelligent Interaction in Social and Assistive Robots
Nottingham, UK and Paris, France - 8th January 2026
BLUESKEYE AI and Enchanted Tools are partnering to refine socially intelligent interaction in social and assistive robots, starting with Enchanted Tools’ Mirokaï platform.
BLUESKEYE AI, a leading provider of clinical-grade facial expression and physiological state analysis software, brings its technology to help enrich how robots perceive and interpret human signals. The partnership explores how BLUESKEYE AI’s B-Social 3 SDK—including advanced facial muscle analysis, user identification, oculometry, head pose estimation, and expressed emotion analysis—can contribute to more empathetic, socially coherent interactions.
For Enchanted Tools, the French robotics company developing unique, people-facing social and assistive robots, this partnership reinforces a core conviction: in the tech universe of human–machine interaction, quality is indispensable—and it must be designed to stay as close as possible to people’s needs, expectations, and social conventions, across the variety of contexts and shared living or social spaces where robots operate. The intent is to consolidate the finesse of interaction: how a robot perceives situations, adapts to context, and responds in a way that feels appropriate and natural.

“BLUESKEYE AI is delighted to be collaborating with Enchanted Tools. Their vision for creating robots that are not just functional, but genuinely approachable and socially intelligent, aligns perfectly with our mission to bring objective, clinical-grade human behaviour analysis to new frontiers. This integration represents a major step toward a future where human-robot interaction is truly empathetic and contributing to people’s happiness, health, and wellbeing.” said Professor Michel Valstar, Co-founder, Chief Evangelist and Scientific Officer at BLUESKEYE AI.
“We’re genuinely excited to partner with BLUESKEYE AI because it reinforces what we believe matters most in human–machine interaction: finesse,” said Jérôme Monceaux, CEO and Co-founder of Enchanted Tools. “In social and assistive contexts, quality isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s indispensable. It means being as close as possible to people’s needs, expectations, and social conventions, in the real spaces where they live, meet, and interact. This collaboration is fully aligned with the essence of our vision: seamlessly blending usefulness with enchantment.”
The collaboration will begin with joint prioritisation of scenarios and evaluation criteria. No product release timeline is being announced at this stage.
