Everything I make is part of one system, and the system has one purpose: moving people and companies from their current state to their ideal state.
Most people's current state was assigned to themâa job title, a place in a hierarchy, an identity built on being useful to an organization. The deeper problem is that their ideal state was assigned tooâor they were never even taught to ask what it was.
TELOS ¡ LifeOS ¡ Human 3.0
LifeOS is the main thing I'm building: the AI harness that runs that transitionâan intent engineering platform that captures what you ultimately want and conveys it to your AI on every task. (Formerly PAI.)
Fabric
An open-source framework for augmenting humans using AIâcrowdsourced prompts to extract wisdom, analyze security, summarize content, and hundreds more.
Daemon
An open-source personal API framework, from the Universal Daemonization idea in my 2016 book: everythingâincluding peopleâbroadcasts an API that AI assistants can read and act on. Mine is live at daemon.danielmiessler.com.
Substrate
The deeper foundationâa framework for understanding what humans are, what we want, and what progress actually means.
TheAlgorithm
A general problem-solving algorithm built on verifiable Ideal State Criteria.
SecLists
The security tester's companionâwordlists and payloads.
