VIQ — Your Personal Intelligence
VIQ is being created as a personal intelligence that builds useful continuity across what matters to you—helping you understand, decide and move forward without taking over.
A long-term product direction. Not a released product.

The reality we’re exploring
Information lives everywhere. But understanding still has to live in your head.
You remember what happened. You reconstruct context. You move information between tools. You remember what you promised. You decide what matters next.
You remain the integration layer.The shift
VIQ is not imagined as a replacement for the tools beneath it. The vision is a durable layer of personal intelligence centered around your goals, context, and chosen direction.
How VIQ could show up
These are experience directions—not claims about what ships today.
VIQ is being designed to recede when nothing useful requires your attention.
Restore relevant state when moving between projects, tools, and activities.
Surface relevant information, uncertainty, trade-offs, previous reasoning, and overlooked questions.
Preserve commitments and, over time, prepare actions that you appropriately delegate.
VIQ Presence · Product direction
Not another attention-seeking chat bubble. A personal intelligence that can be near when relevant, small when not, and explicit about what it understands.
Working notes and decisions remain in the tools you already use.
Across changing work
Return to the decisions, messages and commitments that materially changed.
Three open questions
What did I decide about the launch?
Your last recorded direction was to delay the public launch until the onboarding issue was resolved.
Mobile concept · understanding remains correctable
Intelligence that recedes
A personal intelligence should not demand constant interaction. Its presence should reflect consequence, uncertainty, relevance, and your preference.
Principles
VIQ is guided by a simple covenant: serve human agency without taking ownership of it.
VIQ should help clarify and pursue what matters to you—not decide what should matter.
Personal understanding should evolve as you evolve: inspectable, revisable, and forgettable.
Personalization should increase VIQ’s responsibility, not its entitlement to your data.
Capability does not automatically equal permission. More automation is not always better.
“More capable AI should create more capable people.”
Help shape Personal Intelligence
We’re learning how people manage projects, tools, commitments and AI. Eight quick questions help us understand what actually happens—not whether an idea sounds good.
