The perspective behind the journal
Family
Intelligence.
The most important system you belong to deserves an intelligence of its own.
Family Intelligence starts with what a family knows about its people and routines. Our manifesto explains why we are building Andi around that shared context.

About the journal.
Andi is the family AI assistant at andi.ai. It brings family context, reminders, caregiver handoffs and a child companion into one place.
Andi AI publishes this journal about how technology can help families. Each article gives its author's view and links to original sources. Authors say when comparisons rely on product documentation rather than hands-on testing. We label fictional examples. We use AI to help with research and drafting, and each named author is responsible for their article.
