Nous AI

What Nous does

Nous gives AI agents professional skills and does work for you through them: you ask your AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and others) for a task, and Nous researches it, writes it with the skill for that work, makes the file, checks it and hands it over. You can follow a task on its page, by email and on WhatsApp.

Your account

You sign in with LinkedIn or Google. Nous keeps your name, email address and picture as they give them, your sessions, your plan and your preferences. Your sign-in token is stored encrypted and used only to identify you. Nous never posts, messages or changes anything on LinkedIn or Google.

Tasks Nous does for you

• The material you give with a task (your notes, figures, what your own tools returned) is used for that task only. While a long task runs it is held in private storage, and it is removed when the task ends.
• The record of each task keeps no content: when it ran, the skill and workflow used, the steps (Nous’s and those in your own tools) and their status, the checks it passed or missed (by name), how many times it was revised, and whether you kept the file. Your task is kept only as a fingerprint (a one-way hash) and a short category such as “sales / lead list / xlsx”. Nous learns from these records only in groups of at least 5 tasks from at least 2 organisations.
• Files are kept for a day. On a paid plan, your task in your words and its file are kept for 90 days so you can find them under Deliverables; then both are deleted.
• Research: Nous searches the public web and reads public pages for the task (for example, organisations that fit a lead list). Leads carry only the business contact details an organisation publishes for enquiries, each with the page it came from; never guessed details, personal mobiles, home addresses or personal social profiles.
• Training Nous’s own model is on unless you turn it off under Account. Each finished task is kept as an example: the task and the finished file with emails, phone numbers and people’s names taken out, and its checks. Never the material you gave, your tools’ data or the research. Turning it off deletes every example kept for your account.

Your tools

The steps a task takes in your own tools (a CRM, analytics, Figma, Jira) are run by your AI through the connectors you gave it, or by Nous itself in a tool you connect to Nous under Connect → Connect your tools. When you connect a tool to Nous, you sign in at that tool and allow Nous; Nous keeps the sign-in it is given (an access token and, where the tool gives one, a refresh token), encrypted, and the names of the tool's actions, never your password. Nous uses it only for the tasks you ask for, and you can disconnect it at any time; deleting your account deletes it. For tools you connect to your AI instead, Nous never holds your credentials and receives only what your AI sends back for the task, used as above.

Skills and patterns

Skills are written from published patterns about work, never about a person: job postings in groups of at least 20 from at least 5 employers, and what people tell Nous about their own work (on Contribute) in groups of at least 50. Accepted Contribute answers are kept to improve the skills and can be deleted with your data.

Who processes it

• Supabase (database and private file storage), Vercel (the website and the API) and Nous’s own worker servers on Google Cloud (United States) for research, skills and checks.
• Anthropic’s Claude API writes and checks the work; it receives the task, your material for it, the research, and the messages you write to a Nous in your office (with the last few lines of that chat) so it can answer or pass the work on. Open models (Gemma, gpt-oss) run on Nous’s own servers to review skills and outputs.
• Pictures and icons come from openly licensed libraries (Openverse, Pixabay, Iconify) by search terms only.
• Email goes through Resend (when a task starts and when it is ready); WhatsApp messages, only if you link your number, through Meta’s WhatsApp Business platform.
• A voice note you send your office on WhatsApp is turned into words by Google’s Gemini API; the recording is not kept by Nous. Photos and documents you send there are kept with your office’s files.
• Paid plans are billed by Stripe: your card details never reach Nous.
• Vercel Web Analytics counts page views without cookies and without identifying you.

Nous does not sell data or use it for advertising.

If you used TAI before 7 November 2026

TAI, the first product (its browser extension, Gmail check and Trust Scores), was removed on 7 November 2026 and collects nothing any more. What it kept follows its retention: raw captures are deleted after 14 days and analysed records after 180 days. Deleting your account also revokes any Gmail permission you gave it, at Google.

Your choices

Download everything Nous holds for your account, or delete it, under Account → Your data. Turn the training dataset off under Account, and unlink WhatsApp there at any time.
