Discuss, understand, gather and share your life, privately.

A private ChatGPT — with extras.

The Topos application running on a personal machine. The node is named PersonalDB and is marked Local runtime. The main panel reads “Add to your Topos” and offers three first sources: a ChatGPT export, browser history, and iMessage, which is connected and ready to answer questions. A composer sits across the bottom.

Let’s pick up the slack on AI’s unfulfilled promises.

We can use AI to improve our relationships, increase trust. Not just become higher-output workers.

A Topos node running locally: signal health, a layered map of the owner's own records, and a chat box against it.The same file as a graph: people, organizations, places, topics and goals, linked over a twelve-day window.

How it works

Connect your data

Mail, chat, calendar, files, your own notes — collected into one database on your disk.

Chat with your data

Ask the questions you would not put in ChatGPT.

Give people keys to your data

Mom, a coworker, your AI — scoped keys to your data. Or digests: a routine’s answer mailed to subscribers.

Your brain at the centre. Keys on pathways; Cognitive Firewall scopes access; one probe denied. Select a brain to see what the firewall returns.

Trust they receive only what they need

Keys open pathways; the Cognitive Firewall scopes what comes back — full for you, filtered by peer. Probes stop cold.

And you get all the insights you need

Your memory, where attention goes, and how ready your information world is — privately, on your machine.

Built on a bedrock of privacy

The Cognitive Firewall.

A gate on your node — between everyone else and your stuff. It decides who can ask, and what they actually see.
