    No need to explain yourself

    Kip already knows the backstory, the file and the decision. Teammates just ask.

    Ask

    Answers across all your tools

    Kip reads your email, calendar, docs and tasks, and answers teammates even when you're away.

    "Where is the latest version of the Q3 budget?" comes back with the file, who changed it last and when it went to Finance.

    Nothing is lost when someone leaves

    When someone leaves, their Kip keeps what they knew for the next person.

    No handover document to write. Decisions keep their reasons, and new hires get up to speed by asking.

    Jordan's Kip

    Only one had a lead time under six weeks, and the other two failed the quality check. The comparison sheet is in Procurement.

    Privacy

    A memory this personal has to stay private

    You decide what your Kip sees, keeps and forgets.

    I can't help with that. I never see Maya's WhatsApp or other personal apps. I can tell you about her Q3 report, though.

    Private by design

    You choose what it sees

    Nothing is on until you turn it on. Apps you switch off are never seen.

    Pause or delete

    Pause for an hour or for good, and remove anything your Kip has kept.

    It works with you

    Your Kip answers questions about your work. No activity reports, no scores.

    Separate by design

    Its own private cloud machine, and only your company domain can sign in.

    Everywhere

    For every device you're on

    Use AFK in your browser, on your phone or from Slack. Speak instead of typing.

    Is this the final version of the Q3 budget?

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    What is AFK?

    AFK gives each person on your team a Kip: a helper that remembers their work from email, calendar, documents, meetings and tasks, and answers teammates for them.

    What does my Kip see?

    Only the tools you connect. You can pause it whenever you like and delete anything it has kept.

    Can my manager see what I do?

    No. Your Kip answers questions about your work when a teammate asks. There are no activity reports or screen time dashboards.

    Who can ask my Kip questions?

    Only people signed in with your company's domain. Every answer shows where it came from.

    How long does setup take?

    About ten minutes per person. We set it up with your team on a call.

    What happens when someone leaves?

    Their Kip keeps what they knew, so the next person can ask what was done, why, and where it is.

    Which tools does it work with?

    Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, meeting notes and Slack today, with Notion and Linear next. Tell us what else your team uses.
