About

Modus.

Read full description

Modus is the personal context engine that keeps your AI aligned with your life. Declare your identities, commitments, and priorities. Modus keeps them current and surfaces them to your AI tools so every answer reflects who you are and what you are building toward. WHAT MODUS DOES AI tools are transforming how people work. But most of what people actually want from AI goes further than productivity: becoming healthier, being more present for family, building something meaningful, growing into the person they are working to become. Your AI knows pieces of you. What you have asked it. Preferences it picked up along the way. But it has no sense of the whole picture. Modus fills that gap. HOW IT WORKS Define who you are becoming. Set your identities, commitments, and priorities. Not a static profile. A living declaration that evolves as you do. Stay current without the effort. Activity data flows in automatically through Apple Health. A 30-second daily check-in captures your energy, mood, and sense of agency. Your commitments update as you make progress. See what is working. Modus identifies trends in your mood, energy, and agency, then connects them to how you have been spending your time. You start noticing patterns you would not have seen on your own. Give your AI the full picture. Modus connects to Claude and other AI tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). When you ask for help, the answer reflects your actual commitments, your real progress, and what needs your attention right now. WHAT MAKES MODUS DIFFERENT Most approaches to personal AI context rely on inference: watching your behavior and guessing what you want. Custom instructions and context files go stale the day you write them. Modus works differently. You declare your context. It stays current as your life moves. And it is always yours: not used to train models, not sold, not shared. When you connect to an AI tool, you control what flows through. When you disconnect, access ends. FEATURES Identities: Declare who you are becoming and link practices that support each direction. Commitments: Set weekly commitments tied to specific practices with automatic progress updates. Modes: Reusable weekly blueprints for how you want to invest your time across career, health, relationships, personal growth, and home. Patterns: Trends and correlations between your time, your practices, and your experiences (mood, energy, agency, load). Check-ins: 30-second daily reflections that build the data behind your patterns. Plan vs. Lived: See how your intended week compares to how it actually unfolds. MCP Connection: Connect to Claude and ChatGPT so your AI works with your full context. Apple Health Integration: Automatic capture of sleep, workouts, and activity from any connected device (Apple Watch, Garmin, Whoop, Fitbit, Oura, and more). Calendar Integration: Protect time for your commitments in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook. YOUR CONTEXT. YOUR CONTROL. Your data stays yours. Modus does not sell your data, does not use it to train models, and does not share it with third parties. You control what your AI can see and you can revoke access at any time.

Speak, and Evolith turns your words into a clean Markdown note—transcribed entirely on your iPhone. No account. No servers. Nothing leaves your device. Evolith is a voice notes app for people who want to keep their own words. Tap record, talk, and watch the text appear in real time. Review it, and Evolith saves a tidy Markdown file wherever you keep your notes. WHY EVOLITH • On-device transcription. Your voice becomes text using Apple's on-device speech recognition. Audio is never uploaded, and it is never stored after it's transcribed. • Your files, your storage. Keep notes on this iPhone, in iCloud Drive, or in a folder you choose. They are ordinary .md files that you fully own. • Made for your AI. Evolith writes to a plain folder your desktop AI can read. Point an assistant on your Mac (such as Claude Code) at it and let it work with your real notes. • Opens anywhere. Because notes are plain Markdown, they open in any Markdown editor, including an Obsidian vault. • No account, no tracking. No sign-in, no analytics, no ads. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap record and speak. Transcription runs live, on your device. 2. Review and lightly edit. Evolith can add a title and summary for you. 3. Save. Your note becomes a dated Markdown file with clean frontmatter. 4. Find it later in the Journal, searchable by keyword. PERFECT FOR • Voice journaling and daily notes • Capturing ideas and thoughts on the go • Feeding your own AI a folder of your real notes • Anyone who wants private, portable, plain-text notes EARLY ACCESS Evolith is free and unlimited while in early access. Paid plans arrive in a later update — and if you install now, unlimited on-device recording and transcription stay free for you, permanently. Optional cloud features that cost money to run will be a separate paid add-on. REQUIREMENTS Evolith needs iOS 26. Live transcription and your vocabulary list work on every iPhone that runs it. The AI clean-up — tidying the transcript and adding a title and summary — uses Apple Intelligence and runs only on iPhone models that support it. On other iPhones, your note is saved as the transcript itself, with your vocabulary applied. PRIVACY Evolith has no servers and collects no data. Everything happens on your device.
