Personal AI.
Built for the people
AI hasn't met yet.

Refract Lens is the personal AI built for everyone who doesn't think AI is for them. The single parent running three kids' schedules. The construction worker booking a tee time while his hands are on a machine. The household manager with seven mental tabs open. Lens learns your actual life — kids, parents, errands, weekends, side hustles — and quietly handles the parts you didn't know you could hand off.

The Lens Vocabulary

Three words you'll use
more than you'd expect.

Refract Lens isn't a chatbot. It's an optical system — built around three primitives. Once they click, the rest of the product makes sense in five minutes.

// Photon

The tool.

A single, atomic capability your Lens can pick up — read calendar, send email, fetch doc, summarize thread. Composable, single-purpose, swappable. Your Lens carries a curated bundle.

// Lens

The agent — yours.

The personalized AI, tuned to a single human. Built from your discovery interview, sharpened by your patterns, scoped to your work. One Lens per person. Private by default, loosely compliant by design.

// Prism

The workflow.

A composed sequence of photons your Lens runs deterministically — book the meeting, ping Sarah, draft the agenda, file the notes. Reusable, replayable, editable. The repeatable shape of your day.

PHOTONS LENS PRISMS YOUR DAY, FINISHED
How It Works

Your Lens is built
at the speed of conversation.

Refract Lens isn't a config wizard. It's a 10-minute interview — and then your agent ships, refracted from one source into the workflows your week actually needs.

01 — DISCOVER

Discovery Interview

10 minutes about who you are, what your week looks like, and the small stuff that adds up.

02 — CURATE

Photon Selection

From ~100 photons, we pick the 5–10 that match how you actually live. No app graveyard.

03 — CONNECT

OAuth Bind

Hook your accounts in seconds. Credentials encrypted, never read by humans.

04 — RUN

Your Lens, Live

Web and mobile chat. Browser-native execution. Every action audited and replayable.

Photon Library

The apps your life
already runs on.

OAuth-first photons for the apps you already have on your phone — calendars, messages, deliveries, lists, the everyday stuff. The "live" tier ships in private beta. Everything else, ask us — if it has an API, we can wire it up.

Who It's Actually For

Not the people you'd find
at a tech conference.

Lens isn't built for the people who already follow AI on Twitter. It's built for everyone else — the people whose lives are full but who don't think of themselves as "AI users." Here's what that actually looks like.

// SINGLE PARENT

The Juggler

Three kids, twelve schedules, one head holding it all. Lens picks up the school forms, the carpool swaps, the appointment shuffle, and the dinner-on-a-Wednesday math.

Carpool swaps School forms Dinner ideas
// CARETAKER

The Sandwich

Your kids on one side. Your aging parents on the other. Lens remembers Mom's pill schedule, Dad's neurologist appointment, and what time the daycare closes — so you don't have to be everyone's brain.

Pill schedule Doctor calls Form chasing
// TRADES & FIELD

The Hands-Busy

You're on a job site, on a machine, behind a wheel. Lens books your tee time, drafts the text to your wife about dinner, finds the answer to the question — voice-first, hands-free, eyes-up.

Voice-first Tee times Dinner texts
// MULTI-ROLE

The Double-Life

Soccer coach and entrepreneur. Volunteer firefighter and accountant. Side hustle and day job. Lens knows which life you're in right now — and shows up accordingly.

Mode-aware Calendar split Side-hustle ops
// HEAD OF HOUSE

The Household Manager

You don't run a team — you run a household. Groceries, recipes, gift planning, the family calendar, the slow drumbeat of small things that keep a home from falling apart.

Groceries Recipes Gifts Family cal
// EVERYONE ELSE

The Tech-Skeptic

"AI isn't really for me." That's the whole point. Lens isn't a chatbot to learn — it's a quiet help that meets you where your hands already are. Most people forget they're using it inside a week.
