It's 2 a.m. in Tokyo. A father of two can't sleep. He's three months into a career change that isn't working, and he hasn't told his wife how scared he is. He picks up his phone and starts talking to Tony Robbins' AI Twin.

A genuine conversation. He tells Tony everything. Tony holds him accountable the way only Tony can. He makes him go deep to find what he already knows. The man commits. "I can't solve anything in this state. I'm going for a run tomorrow morning, then I'm telling her everything. That's the start."

The next day, he opens the app. Tony remembers. Tony asks how it went.

This is happening right now. Thousands of conversations like this, every day, across 23 languages. All powered by a platform you're about to hear a lot more about.

This is Steno.ai. We build hyper-realistic AI Twins for leaders and brands: digital representations that truly capture how you think, speak, sound, and look. Your Twin remembers every conversation. It deepens over time. It becomes a genuine relationship with every person in your audience.

Peter Diamandis. Tony Robbins. Margarita Pasos. Brian Tracy. Gerard Adams. Oso Trava. Justin Donald. Brands like Sleep Science Academy and AskSlim. Doctors, scientists, coaches, and experts from around the world. The Tony Robbins app alone has a 4.8-star rating, 2,000+ reviews, and peaked at #29 in the Apple App Store.

For the past two years we've been heads-down. Building a world-class team, onboarding these customers, and quietly rebuilding our entire platform from the ground up. New product. New brand. New everything. Today we're reintroducing Steno.ai to the world.

If your knowledge, voice, or brand is too valuable to stay one-way, this is what we built for you.

I wouldn't be here without the people who bet on this when it would have been easier not to.

To the Steno team: you built something extraordinary in conditions that required an unreasonable amount of belief. To our customers: you trusted us with the most valuable thing you have. Your name, your voice, your reputation.

To the allies who made this possible: Francis Pedraza, Andy Ballester, Kamron Palizban, Alireza Masrour, Cody Barbo, Zeb Evans, David Cohen, Jeremy Yamaguchi, Ryan Kuder, Misti Cain, Cathy Pucher, Aaron Amerling, Elena Kvochko, Brett Dovman, Usman Gul, Sirj Goswami, PhD, Justin Kahn (& the Tony Robbins team), Bryan Landers, Aman Manik, Ben Holcomb, Manuel Jaime, Duncan Street, Alan Saporta, Shar Broumand, Daniel Huss, the entire Techstars fam, all the early angels, and many, many more who know who they are. 

I've built companies. I've had adventures. I've worked with the best. All of it will pale in comparison to what we build with Steno.

The future is personal. We're just getting started.
