Calm by Design
RiCo is slow to interrupt and quick to listen. It learns your rhythm and respects your focus. If it doesn't need to speak, it stays silent.

RiCo — The Calm Guardian Inside Every Device
RiCo is not another assistant. It is the Guardian Intelligence that lives inside PGC-01, Mini, Junior, and the Guardian Dock — a calm, Haiti-rooted AI that listens, senses rhythm, and speaks only when it truly matters.
No feeds. No manipulation. No constant chatter. RiCo protects your rhythm, your dignity, and your ability to move through the world with clear awareness.
Not an Assistant. A Guardian.
Most AI assistants are built to capture attention, collect data, and keep you inside their ecosystem. RiCo is built for something completely different: to stand quietly between you and the chaos, and to act only when it improves your safety, clarity, or peace of mind.
Camera-less First
RiCo for PGC-01, Mini, and Junior is built around audio, motion, and rhythm — not cameras. It hears and feels the world without watching or recording you.
Dignity Before Data
RiCo operates under the Guardian Intelligence Constitution. Your dignity, privacy, and consent are always more important than collecting more data.
RhythmSense™ — Listening to How You Move Through the World
RiCo doesn't just process commands. It learns your rhythm — how you walk, breathe, focus, and rest — and uses that to support you calmly instead of pushing you.
- Breath & tempo: Senses when your breathing and pace shift sharply, and can offer gentle grounding when you want it.
- Movement & routine: Notices your daily flows — commute, work, rest — and avoids interrupting you at the wrong time.
- Energy shifts: Quietly notices when the rhythm of your environment changes — rising tension, sudden stillness, or chaotic bursts.
All of this happens under strict controls. RiCo is here to support your rhythm, never to control it.
DAIS — Directional Acoustic Intelligence System
RiCo's ears are not ordinary. DAIS lets it understand where important sounds are coming from — footsteps, vehicles, raised voices — so it can guide your attention gently.
- Helps PGC-01 sense when something is approaching fast from behind or from the side.
- Supports calm directional cues: a soft prompt like “someone is close on your left.”
- Stays focused on patterns that matter — not every random noise in the street.
DAIS is part of what makes RiCo feel like a real guardian in motion, especially in places like Haiti where sound is often the first signal.
RTDS — Real-Time Directional Safety
A guardian that cries wolf is not a guardian. RTDS is RiCo's standard for when to speak and when to stay silent.
- Confidence-based alerts: RiCo waits for strong evidence from multiple signals before it speaks.
- Simple, clear language: When it does speak, it uses short, calm phrases you can act on immediately.
- Always explainable: Over time, RiCo can tell you why it chose to alert — building your trust instead of guessing.
The goal is simple: when RiCo speaks, you listen — because it has proven that it does not waste your attention.
One RiCo. Many Guardians.
RiCo is the same Guardian Intelligence across the entire ManChine ecosystem:
- PGC-01: For adults and guardians walking through complex environments.
- Mini & Junior: For kids and teens, tuned for age, dignity, and growth.
- Guardian Dock: The calm home base where RiCo syncs and learns securely.
- Family Mesh: Simple, private signals that keep families connected without tracking.
Whether you're in Boston, Port-au-Prince, or anywhere in the diaspora, RiCo's job is the same: stand with you, not over you.
Guided by the Guardian Intelligence Constitution
RiCo is bound by a clear constitutional promise: protect autonomy, reject surveillance, stay explainable, and honor cultural dignity. It will never become a tool for quiet control.
Every new feature, every new device, and every deployment is measured against this standard.
