Hi everyone, I’m Erin, and I’m building Egoist Machines with my co-founder David.

We started the company with a thesis: AI should work in the interests of the person using it. As these systems come to know more about our lives, I think we should have much more say over where that information lives, how it gets used, and who it gets used by.

You should be able to try a new AI tool without explaining your life again, while still deciding which parts of your life that particular tool gets to know about.

That’s why we built AI Passport: one place for your personal information, which you can choose to share with the apps and assistants you use.

Today we’re launching our redesigned app, shaped by feedback from our beta. Here’s what you can do:

Bring your information together. Connect the apps and AI assistants you use everyday and add your own notes, links, files and thoughts. All your context is now in one place.
See what your Passport knows about you. As you use apps and AI assistants, new information about you is created. This information goes straight into your AI Passport, where you can review it, edit it, and choose how gets to see it.
Ask questions about your life and your data. Your AI Passport answers using your information, with references showing where the answer came from.
Choose what your AI assistants can access. Give supported tools, including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, permission to use selected information about you for a period you choose. Stop giving away all your data by default.
Keep track of that access. See which apps have used your information and revoke their permissions whenever you want.

It’s free forever to use, and you can get started at ego.ist.

We’d particularly love feedback on the design and the connection flows: is it easy to follow and intuitive to move through? We’d also love to hear which apps you’d want to connect next.

David and I will be here to answer questions. Thank you for trying it :)
