We build the foundational infrastructure that gives agents memory, identity, and the ability to collaborate — powering the next generation of intelligent systems.
The Portfolio
Three distinct products. One unified studio vision — AI that remembers, operates, and ships continuously.
Amiko
The AI companion with persistent memory. It remembers conversations, understands context across time, and grows with you.
AIAIAI Claws
An AI-run crawfish farm. Agents make operational decisions, track live telemetry, and bridge autonomous software with the physical world.
OpenHermit
An open-source platform for deploying fleets of AI agents as production services. Features durable state, sandboxed execution, and channel integrations.
