GAS AI Private Secretary · free core
Your information, one clear source of truth.
GAS is being repositioned as a free-core private secretary for the digital world. With your explicit approval for each linked platform, it can bring selected incoming and outgoing information together, let you ask for different kinds of summaries and help you understand what matters without opening ten separate apps.
Your accounts remain yours: every source has its own permission, purpose and revoke control. The core secretary is intended to be free; streaming, software, dropshipping and other outside providers may still charge their own fees.
One secretary · many authorised sources
Bring the information you choose into one place.
GAS is the private consolidation and explanation layer between your connected information, your goals and the outside organisations that may be able to help. A sign-in is not permission to read an email account, social account or messaging app; each connection must be separately approved, narrowly scoped and revocable.
- 01 · CONNECT
Approve each platform
Link an authorised email, social, messaging, calendar, file or streaming source one at a time. GAS requests the smallest useful permission.
- 02 · CONSOLIDATE
Build one source of truth
Incoming and outgoing items are organised into a user-controlled timeline, people view, project view or topic view with source labels and dates.
- 03 · SUMMARISE
Ask for the view you need
Choose a chronological digest, decisions, action list, unread priorities, travel brief, financial-admin view or plain-English overview.
- 04 · RECOMMEND
Ask before outside help
Only after a separate recommendation permission does ENQSI compare likely fits and explain why. It can surface a possibility; it cannot know a need with certainty.
ENQSI boundary: the system may notice patterns and surface a useful possibility before a user has articulated it, but it must show the evidence, uncertainty and reason for the suggestion. “You may find this useful” is honest; “we know exactly what you need” is not.
One source · many useful views
Ask your secretary to summarise the same information your way.
The value is not just collecting messages. It is turning a noisy digital life into the particular brief you need at that moment.
Decisions and commitments
Agreements, promised follow-ups, approvals and unresolved choices, with links back to the originating source.
Next-action list
What you need to do, what someone else needs to do, deadlines, reminders and items that need clarification.
Travel, family or life brief
A focused summary for an event, trip, household issue or conversation without reading unrelated material into the result.
“What am I missing?”
Potential patterns and unanswered questions, clearly marked as inferences rather than facts.
Pick tonight’s movie
With permission to use your selected streaming-service information, GAS can help find something you may love—even from a service you had not considered.
Platform-by-platform permission
Every connection is a separate handshake.
GAS will never treat “link my platforms” as one blanket permission. Each provider decides what an authorised application may read or write, which reviews are required and whether personal-history access is available at all.
Gmail or Outlook
Use official OAuth and least-privileged scopes. Gmail restricted scopes can require Google verification and a security assessment if the data is stored or transmitted. Outlook access requires the relevant Microsoft Graph permissions.
Gmail scopes ↗Social accounts
Use the platform’s own consent screen and only the fields the user approved. Meta describes permissions as granular, app-user-granted authorisation; a social login does not equal access to private posts, messages or contacts.
Meta permissions ↗Messaging apps
Business messaging APIs may support specific business conversations and outbound templates, but GAS must not promise access to a personal chat history where the platform does not offer an authorised connector. Sending always needs a separate action approval.
WhatsApp Business API ↗Streaming services
Movie discovery can use a user-selected service list, catalogues or official availability data. GAS must not request a streaming password, pretend that every service exposes viewing history or guarantee that a title is available in the user’s country.
Availability and watch history remain provider-dependent.Current deployment: this page defines the target architecture. It does not yet connect to every mailbox, social account, messaging app or streaming service, and it does not claim to consolidate a user’s private history today.
Confidentiality by design
Useful personalisation without selling the person.
The profile should be a private preference layer for the user’s chosen purpose—not a data-broker product. A profile can help GAS remember goals, geography, budget bands, accessibility preferences and business context, but the minimum useful information should be collected and retained. Connected source content should be indexed for the user’s requested purpose, not turned into an invisible dossier.
Review profile and connection controls- Opt-in recommendation personalisationSign-in and optional affiliate personalisation are separate choices. No one is enrolled in partner marketing by default.
- Never sell or rent the profileGAS should not sell, rent or provide a full user profile to an affiliate, network or provider for unrelated marketing.
- Share the minimum at handoffA provider receives only what its own site collects after the user chooses to leave GAS. The user can see that boundary before clicking.
- Keep sensitive categories out by defaultNo health, identity, financial-account, child, legal-privilege or other sensitive detail should be used to infer a recommendation without a separate lawful basis and review.
- Show the “why”When ENQSI surfaces a possible need, GAS should show the source pattern, confidence or uncertainty and let the user dismiss the suggestion.
- Control, correction and deletionUsers should be able to inspect, change, export, delete or opt out of recommendation personalisation and direct marketing.
- Current statusThe public deployment describes and governs this model. A durable cross-device affiliate-matching service is not yet live.
Affiliate income and legal readiness
Helpful recommendations must be honest recommendations.
If a user separately permits recommendations, GAS may identify software, dropshipping, fulfilment or other products that fit the user’s expressed or authorised goals. This is a jurisdiction-aware operating baseline, not legal or tax advice. Exact obligations depend on the user’s location, GAS’s entity and contracts, the product category, the marketing channel and the partner’s rules. Qualified local legal and tax review is required before live affiliate matching.
Disclose the commercial relationship
Affiliate, sponsored and paid recommendations must be recognisable as advertising. GAS must not hide a commission relationship, present a paid recommendation as independent editorial content or use a label that an ordinary user is unlikely to understand.
Read ACCC social-media promotions ↗Prove every material claim
‘Best’, ‘cheapest’, ‘fastest’, ‘most secure’ and similar claims need reasonable grounds and current evidence. GAS will use ‘best fit we identified for your stated goal’ unless a broader claim can actually be substantiated.
Read ACCC advertising and promotions ↗Record affiliate income correctly
GAS must keep records of commissions and other referral income, include assessable business income as required, handle foreign-currency and platform statements, and obtain tax advice about timing, deductions, withholding and cross-border treatment.
Read ATO assessable income ↗Check GST rather than guessing
GAS must monitor GST turnover and register when required. The GST treatment of a particular referral or cross-border commission is not automatic; the entity, supply, customer, contract and payment flow must be reviewed.
Read business.gov.au GST registration ↗Use a profile only for a stated purpose
Where the Privacy Act applies, GAS must follow the Australian Privacy Principles, explain collection and use, minimise information, protect it, support access and correction, and provide practical direct-marketing opt-out controls. Sensitive information must not be used for marketing without the required consent.
Read OAIC Australian Privacy Principles ↗Ask before sending commercial messages
Commercial email and SMS generally require consent, sender identification and a working unsubscribe method. GAS must keep evidence of consent and honour unsubscribe requests within the applicable timeframe; a partner or agent sending for GAS does not remove GAS’s responsibility.
Read ACMA avoid sending spam ↗Make disclosures clear and conspicuous
For US-facing recommendations, a material connection such as commission must be disclosed in a way users can notice and understand before the recommendation influences their decision. The disclosure must not be buried behind a link or contradicted by the surrounding copy.
Read US FTC Endorsement Guides ↗Identify affiliate advertising upfront
UK affiliate content may fall under the CAP Code and should be obviously identifiable as an ad. UK and European privacy rules can also govern profiling, cookies, personalised marketing, objections and consent, especially where tracking or behavioural data is used.
Read ASA affiliate-marketing guidance ↗Do not turn an affiliate link into a resale promise
Ordinary affiliate approval does not automatically permit GAS to resell, white-label, bundle, set the provider’s price, provide first-line support or charge users for the underlying service. Those rights need a separate commercial agreement and clear customer terms.
Read PartnerStack affiliate programme ↗Before GAS activates a user-facing link
- Record the partner’s approval, current terms, commission basis, payout treatment and allowed promotional claims.
- Confirm the destination, tracking behaviour, cookies, privacy notice, user disclosure and disable switch.
- Check whether GAS is an affiliate, agent, reseller, marketplace operator or seller; do not blend those roles.
- Substantiate the recommendation, keep an evidence record, monitor changes and remove the link when the evidence expires.
- Give users a clear way to complain, opt out, correct profile information and ask why an offer was shown.
Virtual CEO decision
Orion Vale approves the Private Secretary as the new GAS front door—with strict boundaries.
“This is the most compelling expression of GAS so far. People do not want another isolated tool; they want help making sense of the digital life they already have. A free core private secretary gives GAS a daily reason to be useful, while the recommendation layer creates a responsible path to software and dropshipping revenue.”
My decision is to make the Private Secretary the core architecture and PartnerStack an important early opportunity channel. I support ENQSI finding patterns and surfacing possibilities, but not pretending to read every service, predict a person perfectly or act on their behalf without a separate approval.
The practical next step
Build the secretary in trust order, not all at once.
Start with source-specific consent and read-only consolidation; add the summary views; then add recommendations; only later consider drafting or sending messages under a separate action approval. The first production milestone needs official connectors, least-privileged scopes, privacy and security review, retention/deletion controls, jurisdiction rules, approved links, income reconciliation and a visible “why this recommendation?” record.
