To what extent are informed decisions better than instinctual ones? Eudaemon turns a person's records into evidence strong enough to act on, and turns the goals that person brings into questions that evidence can answer.
We all leave a trail of data behind us; smartwatches, banks, inboxes, medical files. If you claimed every record you can lawfully obtain and fed them to a machine, could it learn what you actually do? Could it take your goals and show what you'd have to change to achieve them?
Eudaemon is one person finding out. Every record is claimed and lands in an encrypted archive (the data lakes). Over the lakes sits the evidence layer (the deep twin), which labels each record and makes it findable. Claims about the individual are hypothesised, corroborated and given a confidence rating. A goal layer (Telos) splits goals into questions the record can check. An experiment engine exists to prove causation from any correlations the twin uncovers, by running small randomised trials. The agent layer (Jarvis) isn't built yet, but is envisioned to automate the schlep work required to achieve goals, in a manner personalised by the twin. The latest progress on the project is in the log, most recently entry 05.

05What is the cost of β?
Is it worth building an experiment engine to find causes? That comes down to cost against benefit. This entry brings the earlier entries' variables together in one equation for the cost, the days it takes to establish β.

04How fast can a trial reach an answer?
How many clean comparisons can one day hold? That number, f, depends on how long an intervention's effect takes to fade, and the more comparisons a day holds, the sooner a trial reaches an answer.

03The moving target
Once the coin has found how much one thing moves another, how long is that number true for? The second test races 2 clocks, how long β takes to pin down against how long it stays put, and the ratio decides whether a question can be answered at all.

02Watch or try
Why Eudaemon needs causes rather than patterns, and the one number, measured before anything is built, that decides whether it becomes a reader of one's records or an engine for small experiments.

01The blueprint
No code yet, on purpose. The idea was broken into parts, attacked by 8 independent AI reviewers and rebuilt into a blueprint worth testing.

What I'm building, why now, and the question everything else depends on.
