Product Updates
Announcements from the Amicai team — what shipped, why, and how to use it.
I Searched for a Relationship Intelligence App. I Found Sales CRMs.
I searched for a relationship intelligence app. The whole first page was B2B sales CRMs. The phrase belongs to the people we love — not the deals we close.
We Red-Teamed Amicai This Week. Here's What We Found.
This week we wired up Promptfoo to red-team Amicai's own LLMs. 158 adversarial probes, zero PII leaked. Here's what we found and what we're hardening.
Is My AI Chatbot Data Safe? Here's How to Tell.
How to actually evaluate whether an AI app's data handling is safe — six concrete questions, beyond the marketing copy that says 'we take privacy seriously.'
The AI Birthday Reminder That Actually Knows the Person
Most birthday reminder apps generate generic AI greetings. The version that works actually knows what's going on in the person's life.
Pick Your AI Provider, and What We Shipped
A court ordered OpenAI to produce 20 million ChatGPT logs. Anthropic quietly cut retention. Apple is going on-device. Here's why the two big things Amicai shipped — bring your own provider key, and on-device AI on Android — are the direction we're going to keep pushing.
Where AI Is Heading, and What We Shipped This Week
Three stories from the last six weeks — Tumbler Ridge, the Claude Code rollback, and the Sanders report — and why they keep me building Amicai the way we do.
Your Journal Now Shows Up in Your Chat
For six months journaling in Amicai was write-only. The chat agent never read your entries; the contact profile never grew. That's the loop we just closed.
We Finally Built the Android Friendship App We Wanted
Most "relationship apps" on Android are couples apps, chatbots, or trackers. We wanted something simpler: an Android app that helps you notice the people you are about to lose touch with.
Your Handwritten Journal, Now Legible to the AI That Knows Your People
I keep a small notebook next to my bed. The pages finally have somewhere to go — linked to the people you wrote about, read by the AI that already knows them.
The Hardest Part of a Phone Call Is the Ten Minutes After
Phone calls carry more real information than almost any other conversation. Then the phone goes in your pocket and the details start leaking out by the minute. Here's the small card we built for the ten minutes after.
The Follow-Up List for Your Friendships That You Never Had to Write
You thought of the thing to text Marcus in the cereal aisle on Tuesday. By the time you got home, it was gone. Here's what we built to hold those thoughts until you have two minutes to act on them.
Every Plan You Made Over Text That Never Actually Happened
"We should grab dinner sometime." "Let's do that hike before it gets cold." The text-thread graveyard is real — and the fix is boring: plans need to live somewhere other than the thread they were made in.
When the AI Says Something About You Worth Keeping
Once in a while, a chat agent says something back to you that's slightly truer than you were willing to say to yourself. Most AI tools let that moment vanish into a chat log. This one doesn't.
Your Conversations Now Sync to Google Calendar
Plans come up in conversation and then evaporate. Now Amicai puts them on your calendar with one tap.
I Searched for a Relationship Tracking App. I Found 50 Love Counters.
Every relationship tracking app is built for couples. None of them help with the 30 other people who matter in your life.
We Don't Do End-to-End Encryption. Here's What We Actually Do.
We don't do full end-to-end encryption. Here's exactly what we do instead, why, and what Apple's E2E track record tells you about the gap between security marketing and security reality.
Some Conversations Are Off Limits. Your AI Should Know That.
Most AI apps want access to everything. We built a feature that lets you decide exactly which conversations the AI never touches.
Amicai Isn't a CRM for Your Friends
A friend said Amicai felt like Salesforce for friendships. He's right to worry — but wrong about what it actually does. Here's the difference between managing relationships and noticing them.
Never lose touch with the people who matter.
Amicai uses AI to analyze your conversations and help you maintain the relationships you care about most.
