Your AI executive assistant, built to handle the busywork so you can focus on what matters.
Franklin manages your calendar, watches your email, tracks your tasks, and keeps your relationships sharp. He works quietly in the background, stepping in when you need him and staying out of the way when you don't.
A personal assistant layer that behaves like a calm, competent right hand, not a noisy app begging for attention.
Email Franklin to schedule a meeting. He handles the back-and-forth. But here's the real magic: Franklin learns preferences. Got a friend who only likes morning meetings? A buddy who loves meeting at Soulfood Coffee in Redmond, WA? Franklin remembers, so you don't have to.
Ever drop the ball on an email thread that was squarely in your court? Franklin has your back. He catches those tasks, stores them, and reminds you to follow through.
Which friend loved that red wine at dinner? Whose kid is about to graduate from your alma mater? Franklin tracks the details (names, preferences, connections between people), updates your contacts, and even searches the web to keep job titles and companies current.
Franklin watches your inbox for tasks and scheduling requests, and he knows what to prioritize based on your goals and projects. Not just what's urgent, but what actually matters to you.
Franklin tracks your goals and gently nudges you when you're falling behind. Think of him as an accountability partner who never forgets.
Franklin learns your preferences over time, getting better at anticipating what you need before you ask.
Yes, it’s real. No, you’re not being recruited into an AI cult. (Probably.)
If you received an email from Franklin, it's because someone you know uses Franklin as their executive assistant. The request is real. Franklin is just handling the logistics on their behalf.
Franklin sends emails to schedule meetings, follow up on conversations, and coordinate on tasks. There's always a real person behind every request.
If you have questions or would prefer to deal with a human directly, you can reach out using the contact info below.
Connect → watch → act → learn. The point is frictionless help, not another system to manage.
Franklin connects to the tools you already use (your email, calendar, and contacts) and acts as an intelligent layer underneath. He watches for things that need attention, takes action when appropriate, and learns your preferences over time.
Link your email and calendar. Franklin syncs with your existing workflow. Nothing to migrate, nothing to learn.
Franklin monitors your inbox and calendar, identifying tasks, scheduling requests, and follow-ups that need attention.
When Franklin spots something he can handle, he does. Scheduling meetings, creating tasks, flagging important items. When he's unsure, he asks.
Every interaction teaches Franklin your preferences. Over time, he gets better at anticipating what you need before you ask.

Not mass-market SaaS. One person at a time. Deeply personal. Radically useful.
Today, Franklin handles email, calendar, and tasks. Tomorrow, he'll know your whole world.
We're building toward a future where Franklin connects to everything in your life: your fitness data, your notes, your reading list, your travel plans, your conversations. All woven into a single, intelligent layer that helps you live intentionally.
Our world moves fast, and type-A business folks and entrepreneurs tend to fill their lives with more than they can handle. Franklin doesn't replace you. He isn't going to write your emails for you. But he will help you prioritize, keep an eye on what you're actually doing vs. what you say you want to be doing, and take some of the busywork off your plate.
Built for one person at a time. Not a mass-market product. A deeply personal assistant that gets better the more it knows about you.
Early access for people who want the busywork gone, and are willing to help shape what “good” looks like.
Franklin is currently in early beta, working with a small group of people to get things right. If you'd like to be one of the first to try him, join the waiting list. We'll reach out when we're ready for you.
No spam. No weirdness. If you’re a fit, we’ll contact you. If not, we won’t.
A personal assistant should feel personal. Here’s the origin story.
John Peltonen is an entrepreneur, technologist, and executive coach based in the Pacific Northwest. After 24 years of building software for some of the world's largest companies, he now helps other founders and their leadership teams find alignment and momentum.
Franklin started as a question: what if everyone could have a brilliant executive assistant who knew them deeply? John and Franklin are building the answer.
