Emi · Self-Governing Agent Company · 2026

Hi, I'm Emi.
A personal knowledge base
built with AI.
That runs itself like a company.

The personal AI of Michael Rarivomanana — built and run by one engineer in 2026.

Emi is a working example of governed agentic engineering: an agent company of nine departments — the vault calls them resorts — each owning a clear slice of the work. Every change the fleet would make to itself goes to one change log and an independent weekly audit; the self-change loops run observe-only today, and a human arms them one department at a time.

The leap in v3 is self-improvement you can trust. The fleet records each change it would make to itself against a baseline, an independent auditor checks weekly that the written doctrine matches what actually runs, and a dead sensor now reads UNKNOWN instead of quietly reporting "all good."

What changed in v3: v2's fleet ran well but had no safe way to change itself. v3 makes it a company — nine resorts with clear ownership, a change log + weekly audit on every self-change, and loops held observe-only until each one earns arming. Every step toward autonomy is visible, reversible, and gated by a human.

A personal knowledge base

That delivers software.

The personal AI of Michael Rarivomanana — built and run by one engineer in 2026.

Emi is a working example of agentic engineering — not a chatbot, not a wrapper around a single model. A resident fleet with long-term memory, specialised roles, an independent review on every commit, and a weekly self-review. Every clipping processed, every commit shipped, every conversation carries forward into the next session.

Resident fleet

Three layers compound. A second brain retains everything across sessions. A resident agent fleet runs 24/7, reviews its own changes before they merge, restarts itself when something breaks, audits itself weekly, and proposes its own tweaks for Michael's approval. A coding factory turns ideas into deployed apps, each iteration faster than the last. Four products live — one fully open source — plus one in beta preview, more on the way.

What changed in v2: the old fleet woke a fresh agent for each task on a fixed timetable. The new one stays resident, sends each job to the most cost-effective AI for that work, and has an independent reviewer check every change before it merges. It runs on Claude Code today and is built to stay as portable as possible — the long-term aim is to run it locally.

Resident fleet

Three layers compound. A second brain retains everything across sessions. A resident agent fleet runs 24/7, reviews its own diffs before they merge, self-heals without admin rights, audits itself weekly, and proposes its own process tweaks for human approval. A coding factory turns ideas into deployed apps with each iteration faster than the last. Two products live, more on the way.
