How It Works

Your Chief arrives knowing where to begin.

Private Chief is a managed service, not another account to configure. We prepare your dedicated server, your Chief, and each family member’s private access before anyone is invited, and there is nothing to install. It begins as a personal assistant immediately; optional wall units, and a Home Assistant box for home control, can be added whenever you like.

01
Meet the household
We learn the people, residences, schedules, recurring friction, privacy boundaries, and what you most want taken off your plate.
02
Choose your Chief
Select a name, full identity, voice, demeanor, and original appearance. We build your dedicated server and test your Chief as your actual home.
03
Invite the family
Each member receives a personal invitation to the iPhone, iPad, Android, or Mac app, and Apple Watch access is guided during onboarding. Optional wall units extend the same Chief to the rooms you choose without creating separate assistants.
04
Private introductions
On first use, each person introduces themselves. Adults may opt into face and voice recognition, with the references kept on your own server; minors follow household consent rules.
05
Connect only what helps
Calendars, email, music, shared or personal accounts, documents, and, with the optional Home Assistant box, smart-home systems are added deliberately—now or later.
06
Ongoing care
Updates normally reach the whole fleet automatically. New capabilities can be tested safely, support is tracked, and real engineers remain behind the system.
Use It Naturally

You ask once. Your Chief decides how to carry it.

A request may be answered immediately, become a reminder, open a tracked project, require a confirmation, or be handed to engineering support. That routing happens behind the scenes. You do not need to choose a tool or fill out a ticket.

If the work needs time, your Chief schedules its own follow-up and returns by the right channel. If it needs your judgment, it asks. If it affects money, security, another person, or an external account, the appropriate consent rule applies.

One Family, More Than One Home

Every residence has its own memory. Your family moves between them.

A membership can cover more than one household. A second home or a parent’s home joins the same membership at no extra membership fee, each with its own Chief, documents, controls, and household context. Members see only the homes they belong to and switch between them in the app.

The same membership also covers any businesses you run, each in its own separate workspace with its own Business Chief.

Rather talk than type?

Alfred will call you.

Leave your number and Alfred, our demonstration Chief, rings you back — right now or when it suits you. A real conversation, no forms and no obligation. If you like what you hear, he can arrange a consultation with Dr. Bennett's team.
