How it works
Firstme prepares the work. You decide what happens to it.
Firstme is in private beta inside our team. One part works today; the rest is planned, and every planned feature holds its work for your approval.
Today
What works today
Keeps each company’s working information, such as documents, notes and preferences, in one searchable place, and works from it.
- Who uses it
- Only the Firstme team, for now.
- What it works from
- Only the information an assistant gives it about a company.
- Email and calendars
- The beta does not connect to anyone’s email or calendar.
- Acting by itself
- It suggests and drafts. The assistant does everything outside Firstme.
- Review
- A person reviews its work before anything that cannot be undone.
Features
Everything Firstme is meant to do
One feature is in private beta. The others are planned, with the quarter we are aiming for.

Approval
Approval by default
Assistants are right to be careful with AI that sends or acts without review. Firstme is designed the other way round, and every planned feature follows three rules.
- Nothing leaves without you
- No message is sent and no event is booked without your confirmation.
- It shows its working
- Every suggestion shows what it is based on, so you can judge it quickly.
- Everything is logged
- Every action is recorded, so you can look back at what happened and when.
In today’s beta the rule is simpler still: Firstme does nothing outside itself, and a person reviews its work before anything that cannot be undone.
Walkthrough
How a task will move through Firstme
This is the flow the planned features are built around. It is a description of the design, not a recording of the product.
A request arrives
A client emails, asks for a meeting, or a task comes due. Firstme reads the thread and what you have told it about that client.
Firstme drafts
It prepares a first pass: a reply, a proposed slot or a list of open items. It shows what the draft is based on.
You review
Approve it, change it or throw it away. Nothing leaves until you have decided.
You send or book it
The approved message or booking goes ahead, and the action is logged so you can look back at it later.
Status
What’s live and what’s next
Dated 10 November 2026. Quarters count from July 2026.
Live today
- A private beta, used only inside the Firstme team for now.
- In the beta, you give Firstme a company’s working information, such as documents, notes and preferences, and it keeps them in a searchable knowledge base.
- It then works alongside the assistant on that company’s tasks, and a person reviews its work before anything that cannot be undone.
- The beta does not connect to anyone’s email or calendar, and does nothing outside Firstme by itself.
- You can write to Adaora about your work, and opt in to the design-partner group.
Next
- Q4 2026. Inbox triage in the beta. Calendar proposals. A published trust and approval guide.
- Q1 2027. Agency plans with shared playbooks and admin controls.
- Later. The morning client digest. Learning your style from your edits. Follow-ups and invoice nudges. Integrations with common client tools.
