Agentic communication intelligence for humans and AI agents
Grais is an applied AI lab building the intelligence layer for how people and systems communicate. Memory, reasoning, planning, and execution.
Communication intelligence layer
Every high-stakes conversation requires memory, reasoning, and judgment. Today that burden falls entirely on the human. Communication is the last major workflow without a dedicated intelligence layer. Grais is building that layer: one that understands context, reasons about goals and relationships, and acts on behalf of both humans and the AI agents that increasingly communicate for them.
The capability stack
Six layers of intelligence that work together to make every conversation more effective.
Memory
Persistent context across conversations, channels, and time. Grais remembers who said what, what was promised, and what matters to each relationship.
Reasoning
Understands intent, tone, and stakes. Analyzes threads to surface what needs attention and how to respond. Not just what to say, but why.
Planning
Breaks complex conversations into steps. Planner Mode maps multi-turn strategies for negotiations, follow-up sequences, and relationship-building.
Execution
Drafts replies, schedules follow-ups, and manages communication workflows. Always with human review before anything is sent.
Tone calibration
Adapts to your voice, the relationship, and the situation. Knows the difference between a first cold outreach and a long-running partner thread.
Trust and control
You approve every action. Local-first architecture keeps data on your device by default. Cloud sync is optional and encrypted.
Built for humans and AI agents
Communication intelligence that serves both the people in conversations and the systems acting on their behalf.
Humans
Available today on desktop via our browser extension. Native macOS app coming next.
- Drafts replies that sound like you, calibrated to the stakes
- Remembers who said what and what matters next
- Plans follow-up sequences so nothing falls through
- Adapts tone to the relationship and situation
- You review everything before it sends
Agents
Give your AI agents the ability to handle chat communications. Works with Codex, Claude Code, or any agentic stack.
- Gives agents eyes and memory inside live conversations
- Drafts, replies, and follows up on behalf of the user
- Coordinates multiple agents in a single thread
- Full relationship context for every action
- Works with Codex, Claude Code, or your own stack
In both modes, you control the approval boundary — nothing is sent without human review.
From the lab
Research-backed frameworks for communication psychology, persuasion strategy, and AI-assisted conversation execution.
communication-science
Restatement Checkpoint Before Action
A communication protocol for confirming shared understanding in the other person's own words before execution, so decisions survive handoff and follow-through.
communication-science
Decision-Criteria Elicitation Before Solutioning
A communication protocol for defining what will count as a good decision before you present options, so conversations produce clearer commitments and fewer reversals.
communication-science
First-Turn Intent Clarification Protocol
A practical framework for clarifying what people actually need in the first exchange, so recommendations land with less resistance and better follow-through.
communication-science
Non-Brand Intent Bridge Protocol
A communication-science protocol for helping low-context readers classify fit quickly through clear framing, trust boundaries, and decision-ready language.
Trust and transparency
Communication data is sensitive. We build accordingly.
Local-first by default
Your data stays on your device. Cloud sync is optional and encrypted.
You approve every action
Nothing is sent without your review. You control the approval boundary.
Delete anytime
Purge conversations, memories, and synced data instantly. No hidden backups.
Transparent data handling
Clear policies on what is processed, where, and for how long.
