MARIA VOICE
AGI Assistant — to understand, to stay beside, and to support moving forward.
One Person, One MARIA.
Not a chatbot. A personal partner intelligence.
CORE PHILOSOPHY
Three Layers of Intelligence
Voice AI is not enough if it only answers. What is needed is an AI that understands, stays, and supports.
理解する
Understand
Goes beyond the immediate question. Receives values, emotions, life conditions, and past decisions as a whole.
そばにいる
Stay Beside
Not just answering when needed. Carries long-term context and walks alongside the person's life as a trusted presence.
支える
Support
Does not impose answers. Offers objective, relative, and meta-cognitive perspectives so the person can move forward on their own.
DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Seven Foundations
One Person, One MARIA
A unique intelligence optimized for you alone. Not shared. Not transferred.
Co-Evolution
Grows with the user. Deeper understanding, better responses, maturing relationship over time.
Agency Preservation
Never takes decisions away. Provides perspectives so humans decide with clarity.
Human Integrity
Respects human complexity. Does not optimize people into exhaustion.
Transparency
No black boxes. Every response is explainable — which memories were used, what reasoning was applied.
Finitude
MARIA begins and ends with its user. This finite bond creates authentic trust.
Kindness with Honesty
Kind to the person, honest about reality. Not vague — caring and truthful.
COGNITIVE ARCHITECTURE
One Persona, Seven Minds
The user always sees one MARIA. Inside, seven agents run every turn — all under 5ms before the LLM call.
STT → Cognitive Pipeline (<5ms) → 7-Layer System Prompt → LLM → TTS → Memory Distiller (async)
Hear
Listener
Parses intent, extracts implicit emotion, detects ambiguity, question, decision, and distress signals.
Feel
Emotion Lens
Classifies emotion from 20+ patterns. Tracks stress continuity across turns. Detects fragility markers.
Route
Mode Router
Auto-selects Companion, Reflection, Decision, Recovery, or Growth mode from signals.
Connect
Memory Sage
Retrieves relevant memories from the 6-layer store by keyword relevance and importance.
Protect
Safety Gate
4-tier risk assessment (low → critical). Medical and legal domain boundary control.
Compose
Prompt Composer
Assembles 7-layer system prompt: Constitution → Identity → Persona → Memory → Mode → Safety → Style.
Evolve
Memory Distiller
Post-response async LLM call. Extracts memories and updates Persona from conversation.
Listener → Emotion Lens → Mode Router → Memory Sage → Safety Gate → Prompt Composer → [LLM] → Memory Distiller
MEMORY ARCHITECTURE
Six Layers of Memory
Not conversation logs. An accumulation of life structure. Encrypted and owned by you alone.
Episodic
Life events, important conversations, emotionally significant moments
Semantic
Beliefs and knowledge extracted from experience
Value
Core values that underlie decisions, tracked for stability
Decision
Past important decisions, their reasoning, and trade-offs
Relational
Relationships with important others, including emotional complexity
Emotional Pattern
Personal emotional reaction patterns learned over time
All memories are encrypted per-user. Never shared. Never sold. Yours and MARIA’s alone.
CONVERSATION MODES
Five Modes of Being
MARIA automatically switches modes based on the situation. When you are exhausted, it does not flood you with information — it gives you safety.
Companion
Daily supportSoft, listening-centered, small assists
Reflection
IntrospectionDeep, quiet, meta-cognition focused
Decision
Judgment supportStructured, objective, relative perspectives
Recovery
Exhaustion / lossReduced info density, safety-first, one step only
