A model that reasons well is necessary and it is not sufficient. What is missing is a memory that persists, a machine of its own to act on, and a place for the work to live. Maison is that part.
You sign in once during setup, the same way you would sign in to a code editor, and approve it. From that point your Maison thinks using your own account. The conversation bills to you directly at whatever Anthropic's rate is. We take no part of it and we do not mark it up.
A continuous memory on your own disk, the ability to go and do the work rather than describe it, a voice you can talk to from the car, project rooms for the people you work with, and a machine that belongs to you rather than an account that does not.
The memory sits beside the model rather than inside it. That is the reason a better model arriving costs you nothing.
There is no public address. It is reachable from your phone over your own private network and nothing is exposed.
Maison costs $799 a month for the machine, plus $250 for each person you add, on top of the Claude account you are already paying for. That is a real amount of money and it is not worth it for everybody.
If you open it, do a thing, and close it, then the memory and the hands are solving a problem you do not have. The account is the better value and we would say so.
When re-explaining costs more than the answer saves, when the deliverable matters more than the description, and when where your information sits has stopped being a preference.
It is early, and the price says so. Bringing it down is the plan, and the way it comes down is the software needing less of us. See what the price is doing, or how it compares to ChatGPT.
No. Maison runs on Claude. The reasoning inside it happens through your own Claude account, so the question is not which of the two to choose. It is what Maison adds around the one you already have.
Yes, and it is required. You sign in once during setup and approve it, the same way you would sign in to a code editor. From that point your Maison thinks using your own account.
No. Your conversations bill to your account, under your terms with Anthropic, at whatever their rate is. We take no part of it and we never sit in the middle of it.
A continuous memory on your own disk that outlives any single conversation, a machine of its own to act on so the work gets done rather than described, speech in and out generated locally, project rooms for the people you work with, and hardware that belongs to you.
Nothing you have to do. The memory sits beside the model rather than inside it, so it survives changing the model underneath. You keep the relationship and the reasoning gets better.
Not for everybody, and we would rather say so. If you open it, do a thing and close it, the memory and the hands are solving a problem you do not have. It is worth it when re-explaining costs more than the answer saves, and when the deliverable matters more than the description.
