The Hermes execution engine

It doesn't just draft. It sends.

Ettaché connects to your email, LinkedIn, calls, and contacts — then researches, reaches out, and follows up on your behalf. It only stops to ask when the stakes say it should.

Every action logged. Every send gated. Nothing hidden.

Missions, not tasks

Hand it a goal. Get back progress.

You don't manage Ettaché with to-dos. You give it a mission — and it runs the research, the outreach, and the follow-through until the mission moves.

Mission · Career

Find a mentor

Ettaché maps the people a few steps ahead of you, finds the warm paths through your existing contacts, and opens the conversation — thoughtfully, in your voice.

It monitors companies that fit you, spots hiring signals before postings go up, and reaches the actual humans — hiring managers, not portals.

Who it's for

Different work. Same hands.

The action library ships ready-made missions by role — each arrives with its cadence, its inputs, and its place on the trust ladder already set.

The trust ladder

Autonomy is earned, not assumed.

Ettaché starts by asking about everything. As its judgment proves out — measured, per kind of action — you grant it more room. You can move it up or down the ladder any time.

Stage A

Ask first

Every outbound action comes to you as a ready-to-send draft. You approve, edit, or decline. Ettaché learns from each call you make.

Stage B

Act, then review

Routine actions go out on their own; you see them immediately in the ledger and can course-correct. Anything novel still waits for you.

Stage C

Act, and report

Ettaché runs the mission and briefs you on outcomes. You review the ledger on your schedule, not its.

The stakes ceiling

Some actions matter too much for confidence scores. First contact with someone important, anything involving money, anything you've marked sacred — these hit a hard ceiling and always come to you, no matter how high Ettaché's confidence climbs. It's enforced at the execution layer and can't be talked around.

Under the hood

Built on the Hermes Service.

Ettaché is the product; Hermes is the engine. Agent runs, tool dispatch, and the autonomy machinery — the trust ladder, confidence engine, and escalation queue — live in a shared, battle-tested service.

Every state change emits an event. That's what makes autonomous action auditable: the ledger you see isn't a summary of what Ettaché did — it is what Ettaché did.
