To whoever finds this,
Companion started with a question I could not put down. What does it look like when a person and an AI have known each other for twenty years?
Nobody has built for that. Almost everything made with these models is built for the first ten minutes. We would like to be good at year ten. That takes patience, and a small company.
We built an agent first and called it Companion. It was fine. It was not the thing. It is shut down now, and everyone here works on one product, Relay. I would rather show it to you than explain it.
Yours, Advait
