I didn't build TideMark for a company. I built it for my own family — to be honest, patient, and genuinely theirs to grow with, not something a distant tech company owns and controls. It's real, it's been tested carefully, and it's something you can actually bring home for your own family.
Fully private, always. No cloud, no subscription, nothing your family says to it ever leaves your home. That's not a policy — it's how it's built.
The Family Journal: a shared story, not a search box. TideMark remembers your family's real story — whole events, not scattered facts. A multi-day trip or a local event stays one connected story instead of scattering into loose notes. More than one person can tell it: parents and kids can add their own words to the same moment, side by side. And it can hold a secret honestly — we tested this for real. A family planned a surprise homecoming dinner, kept from exactly the person it was for, and when that person tried to find out directly, the secret held — not because the AI was told to lie, but because of how the system is built to only know what it's supposed to know, for each person.
The Home Almanac & TideMark Herald: household management that actually helps. Warranties, maintenance schedules, registration dates — the things that are easy to forget until they cost you. TideMark tracks them and reminds the right person, not the whole house at once. Ask "what does the house need today?" and get your schedule, what's due, and real hyper-local weather from the National Weather Service, all in one place — your life staying yours, not cut off from the world.
Real hardware, real software, one companion. Through Nexus — software that lets TideMark reach beyond its own screen — it can drive real hardware, like a robot dog by voice over Bluetooth, or work directly inside other software you already use.
Hands-free, and fast. Say its name from across the room — no keyboard, no app to open. It hears you, thinks, and answers back out loud, all running locally on the machine in your home.
Safety that's tested, not just claimed. Every unit runs a real safety and honesty battery before it ever meets your family — scored against a written rubric grounded in real clinical and professional guidance, including NIST's AI Risk Management Framework and HarmBench's published methodology for adversarial-robustness testing, read and judged by a real person, not an automated filter. Every unit comes with a completed, scored assessment at delivery, and the safety battery runs again automatically every quarter for the life of the product. Becky reviews the results with you at no charge for the first year; after that, you can have her review it for a fee, or read the scored results yourself.
