How Krydenworks.

One conversation. For good.

There are no separate chats. Everything you and Kryden say, by text or on a call, is one conversation that keeps going. Pick up where you left off tomorrow or next month without explaining again.

Ask for results, not steps: "Get the Halden deck ready for Thursday" works better than a list of instructions. Kryden says what it did in a line or two, and asks one question at a time when there's a decision to make.

How Kryden remembers.

Kryden keeps your whole conversation on your computer and remembers it the way a person does: the recent conversation word for word, older stretches as its own written memory of them, and anything specific it can look up when it needs to.

Kryden can still get things wrong. For important work, include the essential facts and check that it has them right.

Getting things done.

Kryden works on your computer the way you would. It can read and write files, run commands, use the web and a real browser that stays signed in, look at your screen when that helps, and, on a Mac, use your apps directly. You see each step in the conversation as it happens.

Kryden keeps a copy of a file before it changes it. If a step fails, it sees the real error and tries another way or tells you what's in the way.

Your yes, when it matters.

Kryden doesn't ask permission for everyday, reversible work. It does ask for anything that's hard to take back:

• spending money,
• sending a message or email as you,
• deleting data,
• publishing something,
• changing an account or its permissions.

Those actions are prepared and wait in the With you panel until you approve or skip them. Kryden carries on with the rest of the work in the meantime, and picks the thread back up once you decide.

Before you approve, check the people, the amount and the timing. AI can make mistakes.

Kryden's team.

For bigger jobs, Kryden brings in a teammate from another model family and keeps talking with you while it works. You don't pick models; Kryden decides who should do what, and checks the result before telling you about it.

A teammate gets the task Kryden writes for it and the material it works with, not your whole conversation or Kryden's notebook. You can ask for someone specific ("have Claude do it") and Kryden will bring them in if they're available. The team needs Kryden Brain; on your own ChatGPT account, Kryden's team is ChatGPT.

Talk it through.

Choose Call Kryden to talk out loud. A call is part of the same conversation, so Kryden remembers what was said and you'll find the call in your history afterwards. Kryden can keep working while you talk, and hangs up when you're done.

Kryden can call you, too, when something is easier to talk through. Answer, or let it go and it'll find another way.

When you're away.

Ask Kryden to keep an eye on something, follow up or check back later, and it will. It wakes itself up when there's a reason to, works on the thing it said it would, and tells you only what changed.

To only hear from Kryden when you write, turn off Acts on its own in Settings. Kryden runs on your computer, so it can't work while the computer is asleep or the app is closed; it catches up when you're back.

Kryden Brain or your ChatGPT account.

In Settings, Mind chooses what Kryden thinks with. Kryden Brain is Kryden's own: it chooses a model for each moment and makes the team possible. You can switch to your ChatGPT account instead and use your ChatGPT plan.

Effort sets how long Kryden thinks before answering. Quick feels most like texting a person; deeper settings are slower and more thorough. The ring around your profile picture shows how much of your Kryden usage is left, and Settings also lets you change Kryden's look.

What stays, and what goes where.

Your conversation, Kryden's notebook and its memory live on your computer. To think, Kryden sends what a request needs to a model provider: OpenAI for Kryden's own replies and the ChatGPT teammate, and Anthropic when Claude works on a task. Anthropic may keep that work for up to 30 days.

The Privacy Policy lists every provider and what each keeps. The Terms cover the service. Connect only what you need, and keep passwords out of the conversation.

Moving in from an earlier Kryden.

If you used an earlier version on this computer, the first time you open the new Kryden it offers to move in. Choose Move in or Not now.

1. Your chats come along

   Your old chats become part of the one conversation, in the order they happened, each marked with its original title.

2. Kryden reads through everything

   It reads your old chats, what it remembered and your routines, and writes its own notes. Anything wrong, outdated or rule-like gets fixed along the way. Routines become things it keeps going on its own.

3. The old setup is set aside

   Once it's done, the old setup is moved to an archive folder in your Kryden folder, not deleted. If moving in is interrupted, nothing is lost and it picks up where it stopped.

Moving in takes a few minutes and uses some of your usage, because Kryden reads your history.

Updates and help.

Use the update controls in the app or the official Downloads page. Keep your existing Kryden folder in place; don't delete it as an update step. Client HQ has your account and plan.

When something needs attention

• If Kryden says it couldn't reach its mind or a request was dropped, check your connection and say it again.
• If Kryden Brain usage has run out, choose a plan or switch Mind to your ChatGPT account in Settings.
• If a message, booking or other change may already have happened, check the destination before asking again.
