    > that knows everything about your company

    Given that I don't know everything about my 4-person company, and that I never knew everything when it was a 1-person company (guess which person is that), this sound like https://x.com/mitchellh/status/2044529496217555333 (apologies for twitter link)

    Microsoft WorkIQ but for companies on a non-MS stack

      Just checked out WorkIQ, the promise is quite similar. Spend compute and time upfront developing the knowledge base, which will later result in much better answers

    Given it has "logins" to tools without APIs (browser-based access), how do they handle 2FA, session persistence, and ToS violations for services that don't allow bot access?
    • kushagrchitkar 46 minutes ago
      Our browser is interactive, in the sense that one could click around the browser, as well as the agent. Usually for 2FA logins, Almanac would hand it over to the human, who'd complete login, and then continue.

      We use Browserbase for the browser and session persistence is inbuilt.

      For ToS violations, this is a limitation. Accessing sites that don't allow for bot access could result in account ban/suspension. Simply using Browserbase under the hood does not remove this risk.

    7-day trial seems kind of narrow for a product that needs to "build a memory", no?

      It of course gets more magical the longer you use it, but we've felt it starts providing utility from first few days itself. It could identify things that are going on immediately in your life and help there

        My life or my company?

          For us, these two things have not been very different. We do make both, a personal and a company wide wiki, so Almanac is useful in both regards
