Knowledge Graph
Every conversation, every decision, connected.
Aether builds a living graph of every client engagement — Slack threads, emails, Drive files, the people who touched them, and the relationships between them all. Watch it lay itself out.

“I found a commitment from a call six weeks ago in 15 seconds. That used to be a 45-minute Slack dig.”

The Recall Tax
Sound familiar?
A client is escalating. Someone made a commitment on a call three weeks ago. Nobody documented it. You spend 45 minutes searching Slack threads, digging through email, and opening Drive folders — and you're still not sure you found the right thing. Meanwhile, the meeting starts in five minutes. Your most experienced AM is on leave next week, and the consultant covering doesn't know this client. And somewhere in that pile of unread threads, a deliverable you promised last month is overdue.
Consulting firms lose an estimated $40,000+ per year in wasted senior capacity to context that already exists — somewhere.
Aether exists so none of this ever happens again.
The Client OS
A pipeline shaped like consulting actually works.
Engagement pipeline, activity timeline per client, and auto-population from the tools you already use — sitting on top of the same recall everything else here is built on.
Replaces the CRM most boutique firms outgrow — HubSpot, Attio, or a Notion page held together with hope.
Drag any card. This demo runs in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
Engagements
Consulting-shaped stages: Lead → Discovery → Scoping → Proposal Sent → Verbal → Signed → Active. Not generic SaaS Lead / Qualified / Won. Drag to move; every stage change is logged with provenance.
Activity per client
Every Slack thread, email, Drive doc, and calendar event for a client in one timeline. Linked to the engagement so you can see what's actually moving the deal — not just what got mentioned in passing.
Auto-population
“Signed the proposal” in Slack → stage change proposed. A new domain emails you with intent → prospect proposed. 30 days quiet → at-risk flag. You confirm; Aether learns. Nothing moves without your sign-off.
Why Aether Is Different
Three things no other tool gives you.
Not a chatbot. Purpose-built agents.
Eight agents designed for specific consulting moments — finding commitments, processing calls, flagging risks, drafting proposals. Each one does one thing reliably, with cited sources.
New Status Report
Gets smarter every day.
Every call, email, and decision your firm makes — permanently indexed and searchable. After six months, Aether has your firm's complete institutional memory. It compounds.

Onboarding
Brief any team member on any client in 3 minutes, not half a day.
When coverage changes, a new consultant joins, or someone needs to step in on short notice.

Proposal / SOW
Draft proposals and signed statements of work grounded in everything Aether knows about a prospect. Once approved, the scope becomes the reference the Scope Creep Agent watches.
When a new opportunity comes in and you need a proposal that reflects prior calls, concerns, and budget signals — and you want the signed scope to stay the source of truth for drift detection downstream.
"Draft a proposal for Acme based on our last 3 calls"
Sample output
Scope: 12-week strategic review. Deliverables: 3 workshops + board readout. Pricing: $185k, 2 invoices.

Client Health
Watches behavioural signals per engagement and flags drift before it becomes churn. Green / Yellow / Red score with a trend arrow, refreshed weekly.

Sample output
Meridian Group: Yellow, declining. Reply times up 40% over 2 weeks. Approvals median 96h (threshold 72h). Recommend a check-in call.

How It Works
Ingest. Remember. Recall.
The mental model behind Aether. Everything your team says and writes flows in, gets connected, and comes back as cited answers on demand.
Ingest
Every Slack thread, email, and Drive file from your client-specific sources flows into Aether automatically. Continuous, not on-demand — the index is always fresh.
Remember
Every document gets indexed, cross-referenced, and connected to the people and clients it touches. A living knowledge graph that compounds as your team works.
Q1 operating model by April 30 + workshop in May.
Recall
Ask in natural language — from the web app or directly in Slack. Cited answers in under 30 seconds. Every claim links back to the original source.
Data Sources
Your tools, connected and searchable.
Aether continuously ingests data from your existing tools. New messages, emails, and documents are indexed within minutes. Both Google and Microsoft ecosystems are supported.
Google Workspace
Slack
Messages from dedicated client channels, indexed in real-time.
Gmail
Emails organized by client labels, threaded and searchable.
Google Drive
Docs, Sheets, Slides, and PDFs from client folders.
Microsoft 365
Microsoft Teams
Client channel messages and threads, indexed in real-time.
Outlook
Emails organized by client folders, fully searchable.
SharePoint / OneDrive
Word docs, Excel files, PowerPoint decks, and PDFs from client folders.
Call recordings supported via Fireflies and Otter transcript import. Additional connectors (sales pipeline, project management) on the roadmap.
And reads from everywhere else your team lives.
Security
Your client data is yours. Fully.
Firm-level isolation
Your firm's data is completely isolated from every other Aether workspace. No cross-firm data sharing. Ever.
Client-level segmentation
Every piece of data is tagged to a client at the moment of ingestion. Agents only ever query the client you're asking about — nothing bleeds across engagements.
OAuth only
All connections use OAuth — the same standard your bank uses. No API keys to manage, no credentials stored, no IT team required.
Honest Positioning
Aether isn't for everyone.
Aether probably isn't for you if…
- •You're a solo consultant with no team
- •Your firm doesn't use Slack (or Teams)
- •You have fewer than 3 active client engagements
- •You're looking for a general-purpose AI chatbot
- •Your client context lives primarily in tools we don't connect to yet
Aether is built for you if…
- •You run a consulting firm of 3–25 people
- •You're managing 5+ client engagements simultaneously
- •Your team already uses Slack, Gmail, and Drive (or Microsoft 365)
- •You've lost time searching for a client commitment someone made on a call weeks ago
- •A team member leaving means client knowledge walks out the door
Pricing
Simple, per-client pricing. Pay for engagements, not seats.
Aether charges by the client, not by the seat — because limiting who on your team has access limits the value. Everyone on the engagement should have Aether in Slack.

FAQ
Common questions.
What tools do you connect to?
Aether connects to Slack, Gmail, Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint/OneDrive via OAuth — no IT team, no API keys. Call recording transcripts from Fireflies and Otter can be imported directly. Sales pipeline integrations are on the roadmap.
How long does setup take?
Most firms are fully connected in under 10 minutes. You link your Slack workspace, Gmail, and Drive with OAuth — no IT team, no API keys. During onboarding, we walk you through mapping your first client so you can run your first live query before the call ends.
Is my client data secure?
Yes. Every firm's data is fully isolated — there is no cross-firm data sharing. Every piece of data is tagged to a specific client at the moment it's ingested, so agents only ever query the client you're asking about. All connections use OAuth authentication. Aether does not store credentials.
How does Aether handle data from clients who are no longer active?
All historical data remains indexed and searchable. If you close out a client engagement, you can archive that client — their data is retained but excluded from active queries unless you explicitly query it. You can also permanently delete a client's data at any time.
Do my team members need to change how they work?
No. Aether runs in the background and ingests your existing tools automatically. Your team keeps using Slack, Gmail, and Drive exactly as they do now. The only change is that they can now ask @aether in Slack or open the web app to query what the firm knows about any client.
What's the difference between Aether and a general-purpose AI tool like ChatGPT?
General-purpose AI tools don't know your clients. They can't answer "what did we promise Acme on the March call?" because they have no access to your Slack history, emails, or documents. Aether is purpose-built for consulting context — it ingests your actual client data, segments it by client, and gives you cited answers from your own communications. Every answer links back to the source it came from.
What happens when a team member leaves?
All context they had about clients — every Slack message, email, and document — stays in Aether, indexed and searchable. New team members can get fully briefed on any client in under 3 minutes using the Onboarding Agent. The institutional knowledge stays with the firm, not the individual.
How do I get started?
Book a free discovery call — it takes 10 minutes and we'll map one of your processes live so you can see the value immediately. We offer white-glove onboarding to every early customer, connecting your first client workspace with you so you see results before the call ends.
How does pricing work?
Aether charges per client, not per seat — because we want your whole team to have access. Plans start at $149/month for up to 5 clients (Starter), $349/month for up to 15 clients (Growth), and $699/month for unlimited clients (Scale). Each plan includes a generous AI usage allowance that covers typical usage. If you go over, additional usage is billed at the end of your cycle — your team is never blocked. The first 10 customers get the Founding Member rate: $299/month locked for 12 months with unlimited clients and direct access to the founding team.
Why per-client pricing instead of per-seat?
If we charged per seat, firms would limit who has access to control costs — and that limits the value Aether delivers. Per-client pricing means everyone on the engagement has Aether in Slack. The more of your team that uses it, the more valuable it becomes.
How many agents does Aether have?
Aether has 9 production agents — Recall, Debrief, Status, Reporting, Proposal / SOW, Meeting Prep, Onboarding, Client Health, and Decision — plus 4 more in beta: Scope Creep, Action Item Tracker, Competitive Intelligence, and Churn Prediction. Each one is designed for a specific consulting workflow moment, and every answer includes source citations. The Decision agent goes one step further: it not only captures the rationale behind every material decision with citations, but revisits each decision over time and tells you — with cited evidence — whether the call held up.
