Cortex · individuals • LIVE
For your working life.
Cortex is the engine pointed at one person's whole working life. It holds your projects, decisions, goals, and patterns, built only from what you choose to let it hold, and it gets more useful the longer you live in it. This is the deployment the whole platform was drawn from.
What it does
A digital prefrontal cortex, not a chatbot.
Moving what you know out of your head and into a store you trust is one of the best-documented moves in cognitive science. People who know they can look something up later stop straining to hold it and free the working memory to think with (Sparrow, 2011). Cortex is that store. The hard part was never storage, it is retrieval: pulling the few things a moment needs instead of rereading everything, the same reason a good librarian beats a bigger desk.
01
Remembers
Braindump a thought and it lands structured in memory, with provenance, nothing required of you.
02
Recalls
Ask what you decided in March and get the answer with its source, not a guess.
03
Sequences
Turns one sentence of intent into follow-through across the tools you already use.
04
Learns you
Names your companion, learns your patterns, and stops repeating your mistakes.
Cortex runs today at cortex.firmsideai.com, with sealed per-user memory proven end to end and external users onboarded. Everything else on this site is a configuration of this working core.

Cortex is the individual deployment. To give the people in your institution their context back, scope a pilot.
