What CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE LTD does

Central Intelligence Ltd is a London-based private company founded in 2025 that has built a personal AI platform unifying email, calendar, messages, news, notes, markets, contacts, documents, reminders, alerts, and files into a single ranked signal feed. The platform is architected around a proprietary reasoning core called ARC, paired with a 5-layer memory system that remembers people, projects, promises, priorities, and context across sessions, and a Signal Engine that ranks items by learned importance rather than recency or volume. The product includes autonomous agent capabilities that draft documents, call tools, and book calendar slots in response to natural language queries. The platform connects to 14 sources at launch (Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, Bloomberg, and others) via OAuth with 40+ integrations planned.

The company's go-to-market is product-led and invite-only: users request early access through the homepage waitlist, and cohorts open every few weeks with no marketing sequence or follow-ups. The product is currently free during private beta; pricing is undisclosed, with management signaling a flat per-user subscription at general availability — no usage-based fees, ads, or upsells. The target customer is horizontal: executives, founders, investors, and high-volume information workers who need to stay across many sources without context switching. The company emphasizes a privacy-first posture: no model training on user data, no ad sales, AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, row-level security, and UK/EU GDPR compliance, with SOC 2 Type II certification in progress.

Commercially, Central Intelligence is at an early stage: pre-revenue, founder-funded with no disclosed external capital, operating with a small in-person team in London under Founder & CEO Hans Morano. There are no disclosed customers, no published ARR, and no announced launch date for general availability. Brand identity is protected via UK-registered trademarks on "Central Intelligence" and "CI mark," with international applications filed.

Core offering

Central Intelligence (CI) is a personal AI platform that unifies a user's email, calendar, messages, news, notes, markets, contacts, reminders, documents, meetings, alerts, and files from 40+ connected sources into a single ranked signal feed. It is powered by a proprietary reasoning core (ARC) with a 5-layer memory system and a Signal Engine that learns user priorities over time. The product is offered as a single, unified platform rather than a portfolio of separate products or modules.

Product overview

Central Intelligence is a single, unified personal AI platform — not a modular portfolio. It consists of one intelligence layer built around the proprietary ARC reasoning core, which provides 5-layer memory recall and a Signal Engine for ranking. The platform connects to 40+ third-party data sources (email, calendar, messages, news, notes, markets, documents, tasks, alerts, contacts, files, feeds) via OAuth and delivers a single ranked feed of only what matters. It also runs autonomous agents that execute tasks (drafting, scheduling, tool calls) via natural language commands. There are no separate product tiers, add-ons, or sub-brands — it is one product.

Broad incumbents

• Microsoft Copilot: Microsoft Copilot embeds AI assistance across Outlook, Calendar, Teams and Office — the same productivity surfaces CI targets. Distribution through Microsoft 365's enterprise installed base is the principal incumbent threat.
• Perplexity: Perplexity is an AI-powered answer engine with personal context and Pro Search capabilities. Comparable to CI as a personal AI surface for synthesizing information across multiple sources, with broader brand and funding.
• ChatGPT (OpenAI): OpenAI's ChatGPT is a general-purpose AI assistant that CI explicitly names as a competitor. While not specialized for personal context unification, ChatGPT's memory features, connectors and GPTs overlap substantially with CI's value proposition, and OpenAI's distribution and capital dwarf CI's.

Direct peers

• Superhuman: Superhuman is a premium AI-enabled email client targeting the same executive/founder persona with a flat subscription model. Direct competitor for the executive email surface CI includes in its unified feed.
• Motion: Motion is an AI-powered calendar and project management tool that automatically schedules tasks across calendars. Direct peer on the AI-driven scheduling and prioritization functionality CI embeds in its unified signal feed.
• Reclaim.ai: Reclaim.ai is an AI calendar and task scheduling assistant that syncs multiple data sources and automatically prioritizes the user's time. Direct competitor on the calendar-scheduling and task-prioritization surfaces CI claims to unify.
• Mem: Mem was a personal AI knowledge management platform that organized notes, emails and tasks into a self-organizing memory layer. Closest direct peer to CI's positioning as a personal AI intelligence surface that unifies multiple data sources and ranks what matters.
• SaneBox: SaneBox is an email management service that filters and prioritizes incoming mail, surfacing only what matters. Comparable to CI's Signal Engine ranking layer that surfaces 2 of 49 items per cycle.
• Reflect: Reflect is an AI-powered note-taking app with bidirectional links, daily notes and AI integration that learns from a user's knowledge graph. Comparable to CI in targeting high-end professionals with a personal-context-accumulating AI surface.

Others

• Slack (Salesforce): Slack is one of CI's core data integrations rather than a direct competitor, but its Salesforce-owned AI features (Slack AI for summarization and search) increasingly compete for the same 'unified signal feed' surface within messaging workflows.
