AI that works
for you
not against you.
Your data belongs to you. ACME Brains creates private, safe, personalized AI software experiences with human-centered design.
The AI revolution
should benefit
everyone.
We are living through the most significant technological shift in human history. The question is not whether AI will change everything. It will. The question is who controls it.
Today, the default is that your data fuels someone else's model, builds someone else's product, and generates someone else's profit. ACME Brains was founded to change that default.
We build AI software where you are not the product. Your thoughts stay private; your context is yours; the AI amplifies your intelligence.
Privacy First
Your data is never harvested, sold, or used to train models without your consent.
Human-Centered AI
AI should amplify judgment, creativity, and emotional intelligence, not replace them.
AI Safety
Transparency by design. You always know what our AI knows about you, and you can delete it.
Technology Equity
Powerful AI should not be reserved for the few. We build for everyone.
Meet nexie℠
"The best AI when privacy matters."
Private by default
Chat with leading AI models anonymously. Your conversations never feed a corporate training pipeline. What you say stays with you.
Personal Context Engine™
A proprietary system that privately stores your thoughts, journals, and conversations, then surfaces what's relevant when you need it. Like a second brain that actually knows you.
Cross-service memory
Your context travels across AI services. One private knowledge base, not a dozen fragmented chat histories scattered across the internet.
True data ownership
Export it, delete it, keep it entirely offline. You control how your information is stored, shared, and used. Always.
Built by people
renowned for innovation.
