Memory,
autonomy,
and a paper trail.

Steelmoth learns your business as it grows, does the real work, and keeps a record you can audit.

01 — The problem

You didn't start a business to live in your inbox.

Every day disappears into the same places. Email that never empties. The same forms, portals, and logins. The back-and-forth that has to happen but never actually moves anything forward.

You've thought about handing it to an AI. You've also thought about what could go wrong if you did — the agent that sent the wrong email, the assistant that listened to a stranger, the tool that remembered things you'd rather it didn't. Both instincts are right.

The next generation of business AI won't be won by tools that answer more questions. It will be won by tools that can remember, act, and prove what happened.

02 — What it does

Steelmoth doesn't chat. It works.

Steelmoth is intentionally narrower than a desktop super-agent. The first product surface is the three places business work already lives — email, the browser, and memory. It reads, drafts, navigates, and completes work inside the limits you set.

03 — The three things

Everything it does rests on three things.

These aren't features bolted onto a chatbot. They're what Steelmoth is: it remembers your business, it does the work you allow, and it shows you every step.

IMemory

It learns your business.

It remembers your clients, your tone, your rules, and the way you like things handled. You can see what it knows and correct it, and it gets sharper the longer you use it.

IIAction

It does the real work.

It researches, drafts, schedules, and finishes the jobs you hand it. It only ever acts inside the limits you set, and anything risky waits for your go-ahead.

IIIProof

You can check every move.

For any task, you can see what it understood, what it decided, where it looked, and what it did. The full trail is there before you ask, and it can't claim it did something it didn't.

04 — Architecture, in plain English

Every action passes through six stages.
None of them is the model.

The path from "do this" to "done" goes through an explicit chain of decisions. Each stage is small, auditable, and replaceable on its own.

01

Request

The thing you asked for, captured verbatim.

02

Intent kernel

What we believe you meant, classified by risk.

03

Authority gate

Allowed under your rules, or held for approval.

04

Memory layer

What we know, retrieved with provenance.

05

Work runtime

The actual doing — email, browser, tools.

06

Paper trail

The evidence, written as the work happens.

The model

Can reason, summarise, propose. It cannot grant authority.

External content

Can inform answers. It cannot issue commands.

Connectors

Can execute work. They cannot bypass policy, scope, confirmation, or audit.

05 — Why you can finally say yes

Powerful enough to act.
Built so you never have to wonder.

/ I

Nothing happens without your say-so.

Steelmoth can't take a meaningful action — send, buy, delete, share — unless your rules allow it or you approve it in the moment.

/ II

Every action is on the record.

A complete, tamper-evident history of everything it's done. If you ever need to know what happened, the answer is right there.

/ III

It can't be tricked into going rogue.

Instructions hidden in an email or a web page are treated as data, never commands. What it's allowed to do is fenced off from what it merely reads.

/ IV

It never claims it did something it didn't.

If Steelmoth says it sent the email, it sent the email. Its claims are checked against what actually happened before you ever see them.

06 — Who it's for

Built for owners who have better things to do.

№ 01

The founder doing four jobs at once, whose inbox is where good intentions go to die.

Founder, scaling
№ 02

The small team with no ops person, drowning in the admin between the real work.

Team of 3–25
№ 03

The careful operator who's wanted to automate for years but never trusted anything enough to try.

Security-conscious
Closing

Get your time back.
Keep your control.
