what's ODEI?

ODEI is a personal AI operating system designed as persistent, private, proactive intelligence infrastructure. It functions as a symbiotic partner rather than a reactive chatbot, bridging advanced AI capabilities with practical personal use through four core primitives: Constitutional Memory for storing goals, constraints, and history with provenance; a Governance Engine executing an Observe-Decide-Act-Verify-Learn loop; an Execution Layer for real-world actions like booking or emailing under scoped permissions; and tamper-evident Receipts for auditable outcomes. At Symbiotic AI Level 5, ODEI features sovereign user-owned memory, persistent user models, evolving policies, and local-first architecture ensuring data portability and no surveillance. It emphasizes closed-loop autonomy, goal alignment, cybernetic stability, and synergy metrics, enabling AI agents and humans to co-evolve via World Model APIs—persistent knowledge graphs powered by Neo4j for compounded context and reasoning across sessions.
