Cinemo, a vehicle infotainment solutions provider, has introduced Cinemo ICO, an intelligent cockpit platform.

The artificial intelligence (AI)-based range links vehicles, occupants and external digital services.

Cinemo ICO MediaMind, the initial offering in the product portfolio, is built to enable media search and discovery by combining agentic AI with in-vehicle media management systems.

Cinemo says the system can understand spoken instructions, including imprecise or loosely phrased requests, and return specific results.

It achieves this through the use of large language models in combination with metadata-driven search.

The platform is intended to work across a variety of formats, including music, video, podcasts and live streams such as news and sports.

It is additionally able to suggest media tailored to the driver’s stated or inferred preferences, allowing for a more individualised in-car entertainment experience.

Cinemo CEO Richard Lesser said: “The agentic revolution is here, and we are bringing it into the vehicle.

“We’re redefining the cockpit as an intelligent, hyper-personalised, and seamlessly connected experience that ultimately unites everything from personal devices to smart homes and smart cities in embedded environments.”

Cinemo ICO has been developed to integrate with third-party digital services and content providers via AI tools and scalable interfaces.

According to the company, the aim is to support carmakers in positioning vehicles as digital hubs, linking not only onboard systems but also personal devices, home technology and urban infrastructure.

Lesser said: “Together with OEMs, we’re transforming vehicles into dynamic digital hubs that transcend mobility – shaping the future of connected, human-centric journeys.”

Established in 2008, the company supplies digital media solutions to over 40 carmakers.

Cinemo plans to showcase the Cinemo ICO portfolio at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, scheduled for 6–9 January.
