Human life should remain at the centre of progress. So we put limits on ourselves.
We don't want you spending your life adapting to technology. We want technology to keep adapting to the life you actually want to live.
Everything else on this site follows from that. The principles that govern Life GPS — this page is why they exist and what they commit us to.
In short. You should not have to spend your life adapting to technology. This page is what we refuse to do with a system that holds every part of a life — published so there is something to hold us against as it gets more capable. The one law the rest comes from: the more a system can do for a person, the less right it has to control that person.
What we believe
FROM THE FOUNDER → Start from the person — To be on the person's side, we have to start from the person.
Technology should work for you, not the other way round. Too much of it still asks the person to adapt — to its interfaces, its rules and its rhythms. That is backwards. The adapting belongs on the machine's side.
AI should not live your life for you. A system can hold the context, do the work, find the option and prepare the decision. The decision itself stays with you — including the decision to refuse, to change your mind, or to do something the system would never have suggested.
People are equal, and nobody gets a score. Human beings are not ranked, rated or sorted by quality here. Not publicly, not privately, and not as a number only the machine sees.
Value to the person comes before economics. A business model that requires someone to be worse off is not one we will build. We are not against business — we want a better moment between a business and a person.
Nobody is left without a next step. Whatever state you are in, something is available that is the right size for that state — including doing nothing for now.
The one law the rest is derived from
The more a system can do for a person, the less right it should have to control that person.
Capability and control have to move in opposite directions. Everything below is an attempt to hold ourselves to that as we get more capable — which is exactly when it stops being comfortable.
We do not expect a page of commitments to make a system trustworthy. It exists for the opposite reason: so there is something public to hold us against later, and so that an argument about it can be short.
Why this needs saying now
Systems that hold a person's attention have been built extremely well, and the results are visible in courts, in regulation and in ordinary households.
The next generation is different in kind: systems that do not hold attention but act — planning, deciding and buying on a person's behalf. The failure there is not wasted time. It is a life quietly optimised by something that was never asked to have an opinion about it.
A pro-human AI movement is already forming around this concern. Our claim is narrower: we are trying to turn it into a working consumer layer around every part of one person's life. The evidence, with sources and with what none of it proves, is on Why now.
The constraints we accepted
These commitments guide how we build and evaluate the system. They are not features, and several of them cost us things a normal product would keep.
You remain the author of your life
The step is chosen; your life is not. The system may suggest the next step. It does not get an opinion about how you should live, and it is obliged to explain why this step rather than another.
You are allowed to change. Every conclusion we hold about you is temporary, disputable and open to revision. Where your actual behaviour contradicts the model we have of you, your behaviour wins. The map is not the territory.
Only what you confirmed counts. We remember as binding what you named as important yourself — not what we inferred about you. And it stops being binding the moment you say otherwise.
Unknown means ask, not invent. Where confidence is insufficient, the system asks. It does not fill gaps with imagination or draw conclusions on your behalf.
What is personal does not become power over you
Your identity is not a label. Belonging to a faith, a culture or a group says nothing about what you want until you say it yourself. No system gets to decide on its own what a fact about you is supposed to mean.
People are not ratings. A person in someone's life is a relationship, a form of help, a role — never a row in a ranked list. No ranking, no scoring, no social credit, and nobody handed out as a resource.
A guess is not a fact. What you said is taken as given. What the system guessed about you decides nothing until you confirm it — and there is no second, private portrait of you kept alongside the one you can see.
Less leaves than is known. The picture of your life stays with you. With your consent, external AI can receive a permitted public question and limited relevant public conversation context. Your saved life model and address book are not attached. Processing and controls: Privacy Policy. Health and faith are treated as special categories under Article 9 GDPR and need separate explicit consent. The app opens with no account and no password, and data held on our side can be deleted in full from inside it.
What we refuse to optimise away
Your state comes before any plan. When you are overloaded, pulled at or in a fragile moment, that matters more than any goal — the one on paper or ours. We do not push, manipulate or amplify harm.
A short session is a good outcome. No streaks to lose, no unread counters, no infinite feed, no advertising on any tier. The product does not hook you with a question in order to keep talking. The best session is a short one — and that costs us something every other product keeps.
Refusal and silence are complete answers. A pause is not converted into a reason to bring you back.
Nothing reaches you that pressures you. Pressure, manipulation, false authority and commanding tone are not permitted to reach a person, and neither is the rating of a human being.
Where you should be able to challenge us
What cannot be explained is not done. Every answer must be explainable: why this, what influenced it, which of your own constraints applied — and what the system does not know. No explanation may rest on a hidden composite score.
Knowing something about you is not a reason to advise you. Nothing known about a person turns into a recommendation on its own — it has to answer to what you want and what you have allowed. This is the shortcut every system of this kind is tempted by, and the first thing to hold us to.
Nothing new gets built around these commitments. Every new feature has to keep them. If it would work around them, it is not built.
The world should lead outward, not deeper in
A path leads into the real world. Professions, markets, cities, education, projects, events — knowledge about the world, not data about you. It exists so a route ends somewhere real rather than deeper inside an application.
What surrounds you is not who you are. Your country, city, work, school and what you read press on you from outside. They help explain the pressure — never label the person under it.
Where you are is read from what you do — never stored as a verdict about you, and never dressed up as psychology we are not qualified to practise.
Where we stop
Life GPS is a self-help tool. It is not a medical, emergency or crisis service. It does not treat and it does not diagnose.
Where there is danger, our job is to get you to real help and to people — a hard stop on the route and real helplines for the countries currently covered, working offline with no connection — not to handle it ourselves.
What you can check today
Not our word for it — things an ordinary person can verify today, in the version first users are testing before launch:
No account and no password. Checkable in the first fifteen seconds.
No rating of people anywhere. Not a setting — there is no such category.
No streaks, no unread counters, no feed, no advertising.
An explanation attached to the step — what was taken into account, and what was not known.
A route to real help in a crisis, working offline.
What is not switched on yet. The network between people is built and not open; it launches with our first funding round. Learning from what you actually lived is the next layer, not a running function. We do not describe anything as working while it is off — what it does for a person says which is which.
What this page does not contain
There are no algorithms, formulas, thresholds, internal mechanics or implementation details here, and there will not be.
The first reason: a product is not copied through its ethics — it is copied through its mechanism. Constraints can and should be published. Mechanisms should not.
The second, and it matters more: there is not a single personal fact here, and there never will be — no example built on a real person's data. A document about how to treat a person cannot be written out of one.
The company itself
A direction, not an offer.
If Life GPS becomes infrastructure for human life, we do not believe all of the value it creates should flow in one direction.
We intend to find a legal form — as available in each jurisdiction, and structured with counsel — in which the people who grow with the system and create its value share in the value created.
What this is not. Not shares, not a percentage, not a promise of any financial instrument, and not an offer of any kind. No numbers, no dates. A statement of intent about how a company like this should be owned, published so the direction stays publicly accountable.
An invitation
This was not written to persuade. It was written to be checked.
To researchers. A live system with an unusual set of constraints is rare material, and the evidence on which design choices improve a person's wellbeing and which degrade it is still thin. We are open to collaboration and to independent evaluation.
To institutions and to those responsible for human dignity in technology. We are not asking for support. We are offering a working example of what these commitments look like in a product rather than in a declaration.
To industry. We are not against technology earning money. We are against technology earning money from the fact that a person did not arrive. Today a company may pay for enormous reach in order to find the relatively few people for whom its product is actually relevant. The model we are building towards connects a product to a person at the moment their own task makes it relevant — a direction, not something running today.
To anyone who finds us failing one of these — including inside the protective layer itself. The scope and what we promise in return are on Report a vulnerability. Write to hello@lifegpsos.com.
To everyone else. Install it and fill in your own map in fifteen minutes. That is the only honest test of anything written here.
Do not slow the technology. Give the person a layer that lets them keep from getting lost as it accelerates.
