How it works
Focused tools that cooperate on your machine.
A suite gets big because every feature has to live inside one binary. These stay small because they hand work to each other over local interfaces — so 1FileTool can stay a file tool and still know what your company decided last March.
The company workflow
Six things a company has to do. Twelve tools that do them.
Every product exists because one of these six stages was being done by hand, badly, at eleven at night. Pick a stage to see which tools cover it.
What am I actually making?
You describe the thing you want to exist. 1FounderTool turns that into a plan you can argue with, and 1AIVault keeps the reasoning so you are not re-deciding it in three weeks.

Describe the product. Get a plan, then a working build.

How does it get written?
Agents work in 1DevTool across real projects and terminals. Anything you would rather not run on your own machine goes into a 1VMTool snapshot you can discard.
- 1DevToolAvailable
Run every coding agent like a team.
Build and think - 1VMToolAvailable
Give a risky job a machine you can throw away.

Keep what your AI tools learn about your company.

Where did that decision go?
Every decision, preference and dead end lands in the vault. Six months later a new agent reads it through MCP instead of asking you to explain the project again.

How do people find out?
Research the keywords and write the launch post in 1MarketingTool. Record the product once in 1ShowcaseTool and get both the guide and the film. 1FileTool handles whatever the app stores demand this month.
- 1MarketingToolAvailable
Research, write and publish without renting an SEO suite.

Click through your app once and ship the walkthrough.

Fix any file without uploading it first.

How do I keep up with the talking?
Dictate the reply on a walk, get the week read back to you, and cut one recording into the clips each channel wants. Both of these are still in design.
- 1AudioToolIn design
Talk to your work instead of typing at it.

Cut one recording into everything you need to post.

What keeps it running?
Server Compass owns the servers and the deploys. 1VMTool owns the throwaway machines, 1NetworkTool owns what they can reach, and 1LocalAITool owns the models that run at home.

Take a server from empty to serving, then keep it that way.

The shared foundation
Focused alone. More powerful together.
Every product owns one discipline and refuses the rest. Four capabilities run underneath all of them, which is how they cooperate without any of them turning into a suite.
Memory
Owned by 1AIVault
Decisions, preferences and company knowledge, stored once and readable by every other app through MCP.

Owned by 1VMTool
A disposable machine to run something risky in. Agents get a sandbox; you get a snapshot to roll back to.

Dictation in, transcription and spoken summaries out — so a long day of work can be handled without a keyboard.

Routing, approval and session state for every coding agent you run, so a task survives being closed and reopened.

A product only reaches for a layer when it needs one. 1FileTool does not need agents to compress a PDF, and it does not load them.
One request, five products
What “working together” actually means.
Ask for something that crosses four disciplines and watch which tool picks up each part. Nothing is uploaded between them — they hand off through the shared layers on your own machine.

The rules
Four commitments that shape every product.
These are constraints, not marketing. They rule out features people ask for, and they are the reason the apps look the way they do.
Local-first wherever it is technically possible
Files, keyword data, recordings, vault entries and virtual machines stay on your disk. When something genuinely has to leave — a model call you asked for, a deployment to your own server — the app says so before it happens.
You bring the AI
Every app takes your Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Kimi key, or points at a local model through 1LocalAITool. We do not resell tokens and we do not have a model of our own to push you towards.
Consequential actions wait for a human
Agents can read widely and write freely inside a sandbox. Deleting, deploying, publishing and spending require you to say yes — and the app shows what it is about to do first.
The apps talk through your machine, not our servers
Cooperation happens over MCP and the local filesystem. There is no StoicSoft account tying the products together, because there is no StoicSoft server in the middle to hold one.
Questions
The four things people ask first.
- Do I need all twelve products?
- No. Every product works alone and most people start with one. The shared layers are opportunistic: if 1AIVault is installed, other apps can read your vault; if it is not, they carry on without it.
- Does StoicSoft see my data or my prompts?
- No. The apps run on your machine and call the AI provider you configured directly. There is no StoicSoft account and no server in the middle to log anything.
- What does "bring your own AI" cost me?
- Whatever your provider charges, billed by them, not us. You can also run local models through 1LocalAITool and pay nothing per token at the cost of slower answers.
- How do the apps actually share memory?
- 1AIVault exposes a local MCP server. Other apps — and any coding agent you run — query it for decisions, preferences and company knowledge instead of asking you to re-explain the project.
