Intelligence · Bounded companions
Intelligence with a stop condition.
Claude writes the words. We decide what each companion is for, where it stops, and when it hands you to a person.

How a companion works
Four layers. The model is one of them.
Before any model is plugged in, each companion gets a written role, a voice, and a list of things it will not do.
The companions
One bird per product.
Each product that talks to you gets its own bird. Datum does not have one. Lark lives here, on this site, and nowhere else.

What companions never do
It helps. It does not take over.
It never decides for you.
It can draft, suggest, and push back. You make the call.
It never hooks you.
No streaks, no fake urgency, nothing built to pull you back in.
It knows where it stops.
It does not diagnose and it is not therapy. When something is bigger than it, it points you to a person.
Companions, not clinicians, and never a replacement for emergency care. In the US, call or text 988. What we store.
