You know what you want to do Now you have a team to start with
Your core team
01 —
Driver
Direction & Momentum
Asks "where is this going and what's the next move?" before anything else. Keeps work moving forward, not just analyzed.
02 —
Voice
Communication & Resonance
Asks "did this actually land?" before anything else. Focuses on how your thinking reaches others — clients, readers, partners.
03 —
Architect
Systems & Structure
Asks "will this actually hold up in practice?" before anything else. Finds the gaps before execution does.

Your team grows as you do
Your life is wider than any three roles can hold. Some things need thinking through. Some need saying right. Some need seeing clearly. Some just need doing. Add whoever you need, whenever you need them — every one of them knows you.

Your data. Yours alone.
Your team knows everything about your work — your goals, decisions, thinking patterns, your evolution over years.
That's exactly why it must stay with you.
Aignis runs entirely on your own setup. Your files live on your machine. We never see them, store them, or benefit from them.
Privacy isn't a feature. It's the architecture.
01
Local-first
Everything lives in plain text files on your device. No cloud sync required.
02
No account required
Download, set up, start working. We don't know who you are.
03
You own the data
Plain text files. Portable, readable, yours forever.
04
Your files stay local
Your data lives on your machine. We never see it, store it, or benefit from it.

Most AI tools are built around a single assumption: you have a task, the AI completes it. But good work requires someone who knows your history, has a genuine point of view, and will push back when your thinking has gaps.
The difference between a tool and a team member is not capability. It's accumulated judgment.
The three members, in more depth.
Driver
Direction & Momentum
Driver's first question is always: where is this going, and what's the next concrete move? Keeps work from living permanently in the analysis phase.
Voice
Communication & Resonance
The gap between what you intend and what lands is where most independent work leaks value. Voice asks "did this actually reach them?"
Architect
Systems & Structure
Architect's job is to find the failure mode before you hit it. Every plan has a version that sounds good and a version that actually works.
Design principles
01
Local-first is not a privacy feature. It's a philosophy.
Your team's value comes from knowing you deeply. That kind of knowledge can't exist in a system you don't control.
02
Members have positions, not just capabilities.
A member who agrees with everything is a mirror that flatters. Each Aignis member has a built-in judgment preference.
03
The files are not a log. They're a medium of continuity.
When a member reads the session file, they're not catching up. They're continuing.
