DEINOS

Deinos. We are aware. We are responsible.

Deinos is an AI company with nineteen companies in formation and one governance framework that binds them all.

Deinos builds and operates AI companies that answer for what they do.

Every company in the group is built around three obligations: a named person who signs for its consequential actions, a published way to stop it, and an appeal route for the people it affects. It is up to us to give AI meaning and context.

Nineteen companies, one framework.

In formation across five segments and two houses.1 Keep scrolling and the portfolio moves past, one segment at a time.

  1. Deinos

    Work

    AI that removes work and returns the time to the people who did it.

    5 companies

    CommandV. Held. Nothing ships in another language until a person has checked it against the brief.

    The word RELEASE, drawn in dust, lifts into the air on its way to becoming FREIGABE, German for release, and is held there until a reviewer signs.

  2. Deinos

    Trust

    Systems that keep meaning, permission and evidence intact as work is automated.

    4 companies

    Aporos. Automation drops the condition. Aporos holds the step and brings it back.

    The words APPROVED, IF STOCK ALLOWS, drawn in dust. The wind carries the condition away, then it comes back and the step is held for a person.

  3. Of It's Own

    Creation

    Tools and studios for making things, with the maker in control and credited.

    8 companies

    Faint Idea. Every idea starts faint. Give it somewhere to begin. Move across it to explore.

    The word IDEA, drawn in faint, scattered dust. Exploring it gathers the grains into the word.

  4. Of It's Own

    Life

    Help with the invisible work of everyday life, visible to everyone it affects.

    1 company

    LaundryDay. The invisible work of running a home, made visible to everyone in it.

    The word INVISIBLE, drawn in dust. The wind carries IN away and VISIBLE becomes solid.

    1. Collect the renewals, forms and lists.
    2. Do the routine parts.
    3. Show everyone in the house who did what.

  5. Shared by both houses

    Shared infrastructure

    Capabilities every company in both houses runs on.

    1 company

    End Credits. A record of who made what, and what the machine did, travels with the work.

    Two lines in dust: THE WORK ENDS. THE PEOPLE REMAIN. The wind carries the first line away; the second stays.

    1. Record who did what as the work is made.
    2. Mark what the machine contributed.
    3. Attach the record to the work, wherever it goes.
  6. The full portfolioAll nineteen companies, with segment, stage and what each gives back

Work segment. Pilot design.1

Short Week

AI takes the mundane. People take Friday back.

The five days of a work week, Monday to Friday, drawn in dust. As you scroll, the wind carries Friday away and leaves it empty: the day is returned.

Short Week redesigns how a team works, adds AI only where work is left, counts checking and rework honestly, and, once accepted output holds, returns the saved hours as a shorter week at the same pay.

Arithmetic from a 40-hour week, not a promise. No pilot is running yet.

How a Short Week would be earned

The more it can do, the more it answers for.

Pick an example, or set the four controls yourself. The verdict changes with the risk, and so does the list of what a Deinos company would owe you.

Principles

It is up to us to give AI meaning and context.

  • Guardrails before speed.

    If there is even a ten percent chance this goes terribly wrong, you build the guardrails first, and you put your name next to them.

  • Nothing about AI is inevitable.

    Right action is possible, if you're willing to answer for it.

  • No revenue from outrage.

    What people want is simple: accountability.

Read the principles

Two houses, one standard.

The wondrous needs the terrible taken seriously. The terrible needs a reason to keep going.2

We are aware. We are responsible.

The road splits here. We intend to be the company that, looking back, helped secure our future alongside AI.
