Hey product hunters!
I am Aryan, co-founder and CEO of GAIA. Really excited to launch GAIA for alpha, and looking for feedback!
I was tired of spending my day managing my apps instead of actually doing my work. Between clearing emails, updating tasks, and syncing calendars, I felt like I was working for my software rather than the other way around.
I wanted an assistant that didn’t just answer questions, but actually take action. The goal was to create something that acts like a second brain, handling the daily noise so I can focus on the things that matter. My approach evolved from building a simple chatbot to building a system that could actually execute multi-step workflows in my apps.
At its core, I created GAIA because I believe everyone deserves their own version of Jarvis. We’re moving away from tools that just add more notifications to your day and toward a proactive assistant that actually knows you and handles engagement. I wanted to create something that gives you back your time, not something that adds to your to-do list.
Right now, GAIA can already handle complex workflows between your Gmail, Calendar, Todos, Slack, and all your various digital apps! We’ve built a strong foundation for self-hosting, so you own your data and your agent. Looking ahead, we’re working on better context awareness, and better memory so Assistant can predict what you need before you even ask.
Would love to hear how you all handle the daily grind. What’s one task you wish you could delegate to an assistant?
