Daylight Computer Co.
Daylight Computer Co. is a San Francisco public benefit corporation building computers that don't fight your biology. Its first device, the DC-1 tablet, has a 60fps monochrome 'Live Paper' display, an amber backlight free of blue light and flicker, and runs Android apps. Founded by Anjan Katta in 2018, Daylight sold out its first 5,000-unit production run after a May 2024 launch and has become a touchstone for the 'healthier tech' movement.
Anjan Katta
Anjan Katta is the founder and CEO of Daylight Computer Co., a San Francisco-based public benefit corporation building the world's first blue-light-free, high-refresh-rate tablet designed for human health and deep focus. His flagship product, the DC-1, uses proprietary 'Live Paper' reflective LCD technology - patented by Katta himself - to eliminate flicker, reduce eye strain, and strip away the dopamine-exploiting design patterns baked into conventional screens. A Stanford-educated engineer who started the company in 2018 after years of frustration with how screens were affecting human attention and wellbeing, Katta has raised $20 million from tech veterans and sold out every Founder's Edition batch of the DC-1.
