The 14th, if the printer confirms by Friday. You said you would call Sam on Thursday.

It remembers

You never explain yourself twice.

Every person you mention, every decision and the reason for it. Next month it still knows.

Yes, until March. I found the receipt in your email and drafted a repair request for you to send.

It does the work

You get the finished thing, not a to-do list.

It reads your files and mail, drafts the reply, writes the document. Then it tells you what it found.

What it can do

It is yours

It lives on your computer, not a website.

What it learns stays on your own disk. Talk to it out loud or type, from your phone, your desk, or the car.

Talking to it  ·  Where your information lives

Conversations are examples.

What it is not

Not what you might picture.

Not a website.You install it. If you ever leave, your memory is still on your disk.
Not a chatbot.A chat ends. Maison keeps going, and it gets things done.
Not a new AI model.It works with your own AI account and adds the memory and the doing.

Questions

The questions people ask first.

What would I actually use it for?

The things too big for a chat window and too small to hire for. Handing over the inbox. Getting the document written, not outlined. Chasing what you promised in last week's meeting. It comes back with the finished thing.

What does the name mean?

Maison is French for home: a house you own, holding a mind that is yours.

Is Maison a chatbot?

No. A chatbot is a conversation that ends. Maison runs on your own computer, keeps one memory that does not end, and gets real things done.

Is Maison a company or a product?

Both. The product is the software described here. The company is Maison Initiative, a public benefit corporation whose purpose is written into its charter.

Do I need to be technical to use it?

No. Setup asks a few questions and does the rest, and you talk to it in your own words.

How do I get it?

Join the waiting list. We are letting people in a few at a time, and a person helps with every setup.
