Overview
Personal AI provides two complementary offerings: MODEL-1, a personal product targeted at individuals (memory-grounded, private personal AIs with a free tier and premium/API access), and an enterprise, edge-first Small Language Model (SLM) platform for building multiple domain-specific AI personas at scale. Key capabilities include a persistent private Memory Stack (built from messages and uploaded content), compact Personal Language Models trained/grounded on user data, and an AI Training Studio for enterprises (bulk uploads, sandboxed persona training, data siloing, cloud/email integrations, multi-file uploads, upload history, and memory management tools). Interaction modes include Autopilot (auto-responses), Copilot (drafts), and Personal Score (measures grounding/accuracy). Developer-facing offerings include Ingestion APIs (import & train data), Inference APIs (query trained models), and an AI-native Messaging API (embed chat/agents in apps/websites); the site also references a Chrome plugin and other integrations for training acceleration. Enterprise capabilities emphasize multi-persona licensing, advanced model customization (identity, directive, voice, vision, avatar), custom integrations, and hands-on professional services (AI trainer specialists and 1:1 workshops). The site advertises enterprise-grade security controls (TLS in transit, AES-256 at rest), regular backups with a stated 24-hour RTO/RPO, third-party penetration testing, and compliance posture intended for regulated environments. Pricing for enterprise offerings is custom and demo-required; MODEL-1 offers a free tier and paid/premium/API options without a public price table. Primary documentation and developer resources are hosted at docs.personal.ai and product-docs.personal.ai, and the site points to a Postman page (postman.personal.ai) that redirects to API docs. To obtain enterprise quotes or scoped integrations you must schedule a demo via the /get-a-demo form.
