Never seen this geometry.
Not a butterfly ... maybe a TTO or a 2-piece razor.
This is the 3th variation on SHaDE type that I see.

Is this the Twig Sculptor, I've read a couple of years ago?

Unless it is a true natural angle razor then meh it is just another gimmick to sell razors. If it is a natural angle razor then it brings something different to the table since no one and almost no one prior made a natural angle shaver that uses DE blades in either single or double sided configuration. If it is the former then just another razor maker selling an art project blade holder not an engineered tool.

To define what a natural angle is. It is any razor that is designed to shave at a very shallow angle with close to or the same effectiveness as a straight razor. The term goes back to the 1910s if not earlier.

Not sure to be honest. They sent out a bunch of clear plastic Twig prototypes to those that purchased a Leaf Razor. I'm assuming they got some feedback from those that used them and it seems this is what they came up with. It's an interesting take and it has my curiosity piqued.....

Maybe. But, it's an interesting take and the Leaf Razor has actually gotten some pretty good reviews. I personally have never used a Leaf Razor but, perhaps they're onto something here and they've actually put in some decent R&D. One can only hope of course. We'll see as the razor I believe is going to be crowd funded as the Leaf was.....

Very interesting, what material is it made out of?

Watching again the video, I'm almost sure this is a hybrid.
Something in between a SHaDE and a TTO.
A newborn, SHaTTO.

It's how I originally named this new head geometry.
Not a true Single Edge, because of the Half DE blade.
