Arete AIOS (AI Operating System)
Build the AI business brain your company owns.
ChatGPT and Claude give you the engine. The business brain is what that engine works from: your memory, your rules and your repeatable work, kept in files the company owns. Learn how to build it free in Circle, or build it with us in the eight week cohort.
Free. Nine questions, about four minutes. Your first role shows right away.

Taught by Egils Boitmanis, who runs his own business on the system he teaches.
Egils and Gianluca teach it together, and both work this way every day.
01 / The problem
Hundreds of tools and decisions, and only you in the middle.
Before the business brain: 7 areas, 25 tools, one head.
Files in ten places, work started and never finished, and your attention split all day. Every tool and every person waits for you.
This is not a personal failure. It is what happens when every area of a business runs through the same person, and nothing in the tools remembers anything from yesterday.
Everything runs through you
Decisions, proposals, replies. Nothing moves without you, so the business grows only as far as your hours go.
AI stays a chat tab
Answers that read well and change nothing in the numbers, because nothing is written down and nothing carries over to the next day.
The knowledge is everywhere
Email, WhatsApp, documents, your head. The business does not know what it knows, so AI has nothing solid to work from.
02 / The five layers
Five layers, not five tools
The five layers are how the hundreds of pieces get sorted: what the business stands for, what it remembers, what it repeats, what it is allowed to touch, and what matters this week. Pick a layer. This is the same map we build from in the session.
01
Constitution
Who we are, where we are going, what the rules are.
In a real business
One plain file the system reads before it answers: what the business is for, how you sound, and the lines it must not cross. Nothing goes outside without approval, no price that is not in your offers file.
Start here
One page. What the business is for, who it serves, how you sound, and three things it must never do without asking you first.
03 / The solution
What an AI operating system is.
A business brain the company owns, and the operating system that runs on it.
Invoices, reports, forgotten contracts. The brain takes them over.
Only decisions reach you. If you stop, everything keeps going.
The same business once the brain holds the context. The difference is not more effort.
- 01
It holds what you know
Offers, clients, numbers and past decisions in one place, with a date, a source and a rule for which one wins.
- 02
It repeats what you repeat
The proposal, the follow up, the weekly report, the brief. Written down once, called by name, out the same way every time.
- 03
It answers in your voice
Your rules and your context, so what comes back sounds like the business and not like a stranger.
It works with what you already use: mail, calendar, drive, sheets, CRM and the channels your clients write to you on.

I am not a technical person, so this seemed like a big challenge. But I have created so much.

There are more and I am not publishing them until each person has confirmed their own words. If that seems slow, it is the same rule that keeps your data off this page.

06 / The cohort
Eight weeks, live, in a small group.
The path for people who want it built while somebody watches their work every week.
- 8 weekly modules, and every week has two live calls: a community call with the week's module and a separate Q&A call where we solve specific problems.
- 2 additional small group calls, each focused on one industry.
- An onboarding call that gets your setup right.
- The group while the program runs, then an invitation to the AIOS Builders Board, a peer board where graduates bring a real build, a real problem or a real decision and the others read it properly.
- A year on the platform: the videos, the skills library and the material that goes up while your year runs.
First 10 seats: €399. After the first 10: €499.
Planned standard price for future cohorts: €1,299.
Starts Thursday, 10 September 2026, 17:00 Riga · 16:00 Berlin · 15:00 London · 10:00 New York.

09 / FAQ
Questions
- Do I need to know how to code?
- No. You need to follow instructions and be stubborn when something does not work the first time.
- Is this another ChatGPT course?
- No. You leave with agents that run from your own memory, not with a folder of prompts.
- Which AI tools do I need?
- One paid AI subscription, Claude or ChatGPT or similar. Everything else we use has a free tier, and we tell you before anything costs money.
- How much time per week?
- Five to seven hours: two live calls plus your own building time.
- Who owns what I build?
- You do. The files sit on your machine, the code sits in your repository.
- Are the sessions recorded?
- Yes, every one of them.
- What happens after eight weeks?
- You have a working brain and a rhythm to keep it. The platform, the videos, the skills library and the recordings are included for twelve months from your start.
- Why not just wait for Claude or ChatGPT to build this in?
- They are building it in. Anthropic went from a Mac-only research preview to web and mobile in 177 days. The gap is not capability. The gap is portability: none of the big three offers a structured memory export today, so your data still lives where they keep it. We build so your files stay yours even when the tool changes.
- Can I get my memory out of Claude or Gemini today?
- Not as a structured file you can move. Claude's memory export is a manual copy-paste loop, and Google imports from other apps the same way plus a ZIP archive. Your own files are the only path between vendors right now. That is why we start there.
- Most in-house AI projects fail. Why would mine not?
- They often fail because nobody measures past the launch. We set up the measurement in week one: what is still running 180 days later, checked against file changes, not a survey. If the number is low, we will know it and you will know it. That honesty is the only way to keep it alive.
- What if it is not for me?
- Full refund any time before your cohort starts. Full refund during the first two weeks if you find it is not for you, one email is enough. After that there are no refunds, it is a small group and your seat was taken from someone.
Your business already knows a lot. It just does not remember any of it.
