Castle of Todd

An operating system for AI-powered business.

Castle of Todd brings AI systems, software, workflows, evidence and human decisions into one coherent operating model.

Built around specialist responsibilities, controlled automation and explicit authority.

The concept

What is Castle of Todd?

I

One operating world

Castle turns agents, software, queues, APIs, records and business processes into an understandable operating model.

II

Specialist institutions

Research, communication, construction, commercial operations, finance, knowledge and engineering have defined responsibilities rather than being collapsed into one all-powerful AI agent.

III

Human authority

Automation can prepare and progress work, while consequential actions remain subject to defined permissions and human approval where required.

How the system works

Specialists, in sequence.

Specialist parts of Castle handle different stages of work, passing structured evidence and state between them rather than improvising across boundaries.

Coordination does not overwrite specialist truth. Intelligence does not automatically grant authority.

Built for real work

Software, not worldbuilding.

The castle is a metaphor for a real technical estate — applications, databases, APIs, queues, model providers and schedulers known internally as HermesEmpire. Castle is being built to support practical workflows such as:

  • Research and business discovery
  • Sales preparation and communications
  • Website and digital-service fulfilment
  • Commercial and customer workflows
  • Operational records and state
  • Software engineering and system maintenance

Human-governed automation

AI capability does not equal permission.

Castle separates intelligence, evidence and authority. Systems can research, analyse, draft and prepare work autonomously while consequential actions can remain behind explicit policy or human approval.

Integrations

Google services

Castle of Todd can connect to authorised Google services, including Gmail, to support communication workflows.

Depending on the permissions granted, Castle may read relevant email messages and metadata, create and manage drafts, and send email when explicitly authorised by the user or permitted by the configured workflow.

Google account data is used only to provide the authorised Castle functionality. It is not sold.

Castle of Todd is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by Google.
