Welcome

One brain for your team. And its AI.

Brain is a shared memory vault: plain files your team owns, edited together in real time, with per-file access rules that bind people and AI agents alike. Connect any agent that speaks MCP and it becomes a named team member whose every edit is attributed and reversible.

Brain is not self-serve. Every Brain is set up personally, one team at a time.

Why it looks like 1984

Software used to be simple.

A file was a file. It lived on a computer you could point at. When you wrote something down, it stayed written, and it stayed yours.

Then work scattered.

Knowledge moved into wikis nobody reads, chats that forget by Friday, and databases you rent but never own. And now AI agents have joined your team with a strange handicap: brilliant in the moment, amnesiac by morning. Every tool got smarter. Your team's memory got worse.

Brain is the deliberate throwback.

Plain markdown files in a vault your team owns, upgraded with the two things 1984 never had: real-time multiplayer, and AI teammates that read and write the same files under the same rules as everyone else. That is the whole idea. It is drawn like a 1984 desktop because it keeps the 1984 promise.

What makes it different

Plain files, yours

Every note is a real markdown file in a vault your team owns. No lock-in, no proprietary database. If you ever leave, you take the files.

Edits merge, live

Two people, or ten, in the same note never overwrite each other. You see who is in the note with you, keystroke by keystroke.

Any AI, a team member

Claude, Cursor, a Chief of Staff agent, your in-house harness: anything that speaks MCP connects with its own name and its own permissions, and you watch its words arrive live.

Access per file

Share a folder with the whole team, lock one file to read-only, keep a private tree nobody else can open. The same rules bind people and AI alike.

Every version kept

Each change is recorded with who made it, human or agent. Any note reverts to any earlier version, and the revert itself is recorded. Nothing erases history.

One team, one world

Each client runs a fully separate Brain. Nothing is shared between clients: not a server process, not a database, not a file.

See the map

Brain draws your vault as a living map: one note in focus with everything that links in and out, or the whole vault at once. Teammates appear beside the notes they are reading right now, and notes you have not explored yet stay dithered until you open them.
