60 words
Heliarko is a local-first personal digital environment built around a user-controlled Capsule. It brings documents, photographs, stories, work and personal context into one structured place and uses AI-assisted tools to help search, connect, write and think with that material. The Capsule remains the durable foundation; optional online intelligence is treated as a separate and visible layer.
The full idea:
Heliarko begins as a useful private place for the digital life a person already has.
Over time, the same structure can also preserve the stories, explanations, voice and context that make those files meaningful to the person — and, if they choose, to people close to them in the future.
It is built for life first.
Legacy can grow from it later.

The AI is not the product.
The Capsule is.
AI models will change.
Providers will change.
The personal material should not have to change with them.
Heliarko separates the durable layer — the person’s material and context — from the intelligence used to work with it.
That leads to three important distinctions:
Source is not context.
Context is not inference.
Inference is not memory.
AI helps the person work with their material.
It does not become the person.
Heliarko is built around a personal Capsule on storage controlled by the owner.
Some optional AI functions may use an external online service.
Those functions are a separate boundary and should be described as such.
Local-first does not mean pretending the internet does not exist.
It means keeping the durable personal foundation under the person’s control.

Please avoid
Digital immortality — Heliarko does not claim to preserve consciousness or bring a person back.
AI clone — AI may work with preserved context, but it is not presented as the human being.
Fully offline AI — some functions may use optional online intelligence.
Cloud memory service — the durable Capsule is designed around storage controlled by the owner.
AI that knows everything about you — Heliarko works only with context actually available to it.
Accuracy matters more to us than a dramatic headline.
The right to be.
Not a ghost — a letter that can listen.
Being is not matter; being is attention.
Together, not instead.
Sample material only.
Public product screens must use sample material rather than genuine private data.
A press image pack will be published here when the 1.0.12 screens exist; until then there is nothing to download, and we would rather say so than link to a placeholder.
Heliarko wordmark
Set in Source Serif 4. The wordmark carries no symbol and no slogan inside it.
Heliarko logo and seal
The sun wheel in its rounded square, underlined by a fine black line the width of the wheel. The seal is the sun alone.
A requestPlease do not redraw, stretch, recolour or add symbols to the Heliarko wordmark.
No fake private life presented as a real person.
Heliarko is still being built.
That is part of the story, not something we intend to hide.
Version 1.0.12 is a public-test release rather than a claim that the entire vision is already finished.
When discussing a feature that is still experimental or planned, please distinguish it from something available in the current product.
If you are unsure, ask us.
We would rather give a less exciting answer than a more exciting wrong one.
Heliarko is a local-first personal digital environment built around a user-controlled Capsule for life, work, personal context and long-term memory. Its purpose is to help a person use and understand their own material today while preserving truthful context that may remain meaningful over time. AI acts as a partner in that process, not as a replacement for the person.
