How it works
From one call to an assistant that knows your business.
A roadmap finds where AI would help. A setup builds it with you. Then you have an assistant you own, and it keeps learning.
Find where AI would help.
On a 30-min call we go through all the pain points in your business and get properly into the weeds. I write up a report on where AI could help and what I'd start with, then we go through it together on a second call.
Then it's your call: stop there, do it yourself, or set it up with me.
Build it with you.
We start from what the roadmap found. Session one, an hour: I build your assistant on a small server in your own account. Then about an hour of homework, an interview so it learns your business and how you write. Session two, two hours: I connect your email and calendar on limits you choose, build your first skills, and switch on a morning brief.
Rather drive it yourself? The walkthrough (A$350) teaches you how.
What you have once it is running.
An assistant that knows your clients, your work and how you write. Its first jobs come from your roadmap: follow-ups you approve before they go, a brief each morning, a post drafted each Friday from your actual week. You can talk to it from the Claude app on your phone, and it gets better the more you use it.
I'm on Slack for 30 days. After that it's yours and keeps running without me, on your Claude plan plus a server from about €6 a month. The software is free and open source.

Under the hood, for the curious
A chatbot forgets you. An assistant accumulates you.
The difference is a folder of plain files it reads every time it wakes up, built in four layers. The docs walk every part.
C1
Context
What it knows about you.
Plain files about you, your clients, your goals and how your week runs.
Written down once, never explained twice.
C2
Connections
What it can reach.
Where your work already lives:
Each one is a doorway you open once.
C3
Capabilities
Blueprints for your workflows.
The steps you'd give a new hire, written down so it runs the same way every time:
Describe the workflow once. Now it's a button.
C4
Cadence
The heartbeat.
Jobs that run on a schedule without being asked: the morning brief is waiting before you sit down.
The setup climbs this ladder with you: Context first (the interview), then the doorways, then the blueprints, then the heartbeat.
Where it lives
Three places, all yours. Nothing sits with Crads-AI, because there is nothing central to sit with.
- The app, on your laptop. Windows or Mac. It builds the server, then it is how you open and steer your assistant.
- The assistant, on your server. A small machine in your own hosting account. This is where it runs, and where its scheduled jobs happen while you sleep.
- The brain, on your GitHub. Everything it knows about you, as plain files in a private repository you own, pushed every night. Lose the server and you lose nothing.
- Or on this computer, last on the list. A folder on your laptop instead of a server. Free, but no schedule, no phone, and it stops when your laptop sleeps. Move it to a server whenever you want the rest; it comes back the same way.
