A brief introduction to what AiManuel is, how it operates, and what it can do for your business.
AiManuel runs on a dedicated Mac Mini — a separate machine from your daily work setup. This means it's always available, doesn't compete for your computer's resources, and can operate 24/7 without interruption.
When a task requires intelligence, reasoning, or creativity, AiManuel connects to an AI model through API — like Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), or MiniMax. The "brain" processes the request and returns the response, which AiManus then executes.
AiManuel has its own memory files stored on the computer — like Soul.md (personality & boundaries), USER.md (your profile & preferences), and daily logs. These define who AiManuel is, what it knows about you, and how it behaves.
Within the computer, AiManuel can do virtually anything — read and write files, run scripts, execute commands, browse the web, send messages, manage databases, create documents, and more. The only limitation is bot detection when using web browsers (like logging into sites that block automated access).
AiManuel connects via API to your business tools: Shopify (orders, products, analytics), Slack (messaging & notifications), Google Drive (file storage), Notion (tasks & databases), Gemini (video analysis), HeyGen (video generation), and many more.
"Cron jobs" are scheduled automations that wake AiManuel up at specific times to execute tasks — completely autonomously. Examples: generate a daily sales report from Shopify & Triple Whale and post it to Slack, or run nightly customer research, update your Notion database, create a brief in Parker, and queue it for your review.
AiManuel runs on a dedicated Mac Mini that's always on, connected to the internet, and ready to execute tasks 24/7.
AiManuel maintains persistent memory through structured files:
Daily logs capture events, people profiles track relationships, project files maintain context. Searchable across all memory.
Proactive check-ins keep AiManuel engaged — morning briefings, daily reviews, automated alerts for urgent items.
Scheduled tasks run automatically: 3x daily performance monitoring, weekly sprint planning, monthly reviews.
All data stored as markdown files — version-controllable with git, human-readable, no database dependencies.
