# amaiko

> amaiko is the AI colleague that lives inside Microsoft Teams. It remembers every conversation, learns your working style, reads your calendar, triages your inbox, drafts your emails, and gets smarter every day. Not a chatbot you have to prompt — a colleague that already knows the context. Install in one click from the Teams app store. No consultants, no data science team, no 6-month roadmap. GDPR-compliant, hosted in Germany, built for companies that already run on Microsoft 365.

## What makes amaiko different

- **Persistent memory**: amaiko remembers context across every conversation. Ask it something on Monday, reference it on Friday — it knows.
- **Native Teams integration**: Not bolted on. Not a browser tab. It lives where your team already works — Microsoft Teams.
- **Learns your organization**: Agents teach each other. Daily context consolidates into lasting knowledge overnight. Your entire company gets smarter automatically.
- **Microsoft 365 access**: Calendar, email, files, tasks, SharePoint — amaiko reads and acts on your existing data. No migration, no new tools.
- **Zero setup**: Install from the Teams store. Start chatting. It learns as you go.
