Ideas compete
Every design is drafted twice, independently, then compared point by point. The stronger argument wins — not the first one.
Independent AI studio
We build AI that remembers, reasons, and gets real work done.
Certamen Labs designs and builds AI agents and systems that earn their place in people's lives — useful on day one, and better every day after.
Flagship
Moses — the AI that remembers you.
Most AI forgets you the moment a conversation ends. Moses keeps what matters, learns how you work, and brings it to every task — on your own computer.
Moses Beta
An AI agent with a memory that grows with you. Tell it something once and it carries it forward — your preferences, your decisions, the way you like things done. It can look things up in its own memory and in your past conversations while it works.
- Runs on your PCYour memories stay on your computer. The beta is for Windows.
- Your choice of modelWorks with Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, open models and more — you choose the model.
- Memory you can trustEvery remembered fact keeps a link to where it came from.
It started with Hal — an AI we built for ourselves, and still use every day.
Hal is the studio's own research system: a personal AI with persistent long-term memory that works alongside us on real projects. Every idea about how an AI should remember — what to keep, what to let go, how to know a memory is true — is tried on Hal first.
Moses is what that work became when we rebuilt it — from a clean start, for everyone. Hal stays our proving ground for whatever comes next. The lab grows from here.

How we work
Careful by design. Fast where it counts.
Checked against reality
Claims are traced to the code and the data before anything ships. Every step ends with a live check, written down.
Yours stays yours
Local first. Your data lives on your machine, and you decide what the AI remembers.
What's next
Moses is the first. It won't be the last.
We're an active studio, not a single product. Agents that take work off your plate, systems that learn without forgetting — built the same careful way, and not stopping at Moses.
