How it works

It runs quietly on a machine you control, around the clock. You only see the results.

What you get

  • A task list that keeps itself

    Tasks in Plane, an open-source tracker on your own server, filed by company and project.

  • Alerts when someone’s waiting

    A Telegram ping when a person has waited on you too long, so you answer before they chase.

  • A briefing every morning

    At 08:30: what changed overnight, what’s due today and who needs a reply.

  • A console that shows its work

    Every change the agent made, the messages behind it, and why.

It works the way you do.

What counts as urgent, what closes a task, who gets a reply within three hours, what to ignore: it all lives in a plain rules file you can read and edit. Every correction you make becomes a new rule.

procedure.md
## urgent- a client deadline this week- investors: reply within 3 hours## ignore- newsletters, receipts, calendar noise## the agent may- create tasks and comment- close tasks only with my approval

Safe by design.

  • It never replies or sends anything for you.

    It reads. It never speaks on your behalf.

  • It never keeps your messages in our database.

    They’re stored on a machine you control.

  • It never changes a task without evidence.

    Every update links to the message behind it.

  • It never acts on a guess.

    When it’s unsure, it files the task and flags it for your approval.

Who it’s for

For people with too many inboxes.

  • Founders & execs

    Several companies, investors, hires and a team, spread across five apps. Know who’s waiting on you before they have to chase.

    • Investor and hiring threads tracked to the end
    • One list across every company you run
    • A morning briefing instead of inbox archaeology
  • Consultants & agencies

    Every client on a different channel. Each request lands in that client’s project, with the evidence attached.

    • Client requests filed by client, automatically
    • Nothing promised in a call goes untracked
    • A record of what was asked, and when

How we set it up.

  1. Step 01

    Interview

    We learn how you work: your channels, companies, people and what counts as urgent. That becomes your rules file.

  2. Step 02

    Install

    We set it up on your server, or a small machine we help you choose, and connect one source at a time.

  3. Step 03

    Suggest

    For the first week it only proposes changes. You approve or correct, and every correction becomes a rule.

  4. Step 04

    Hand over

    Once it’s right, it runs on its own. You own the system and your data.

FAQ

Questions.

Does it reply to people for me?

No. It reads your channels and writes only to your task tracker and to files on your server. Replying stays with you.

Where do my messages live?

On a machine you control: a home server, a mini PC or a small cloud server. The reading and reasoning step runs on Claude, under your own account.

Which tools does it work with?

Gmail, Slack, Telegram, GitHub, Notion and meeting notes today, feeding Plane as the tracker. Other sources can be added.

What do I need?

An always-on machine and a Claude subscription. We help you pick the machine if you don’t have one.

How much does it cost?

It depends on your channels, your team and how much tuning you need. We scope it with you on a short call and send a quote.

How long does setup take?

A first version in days, then a week of supervised tuning before it runs on its own.

What if it gets something wrong?

You correct it once. We trace why, fix the rule, and check for the same mistake elsewhere.
