A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Your questions.
Thoughtfully answered.

From your first sign-in to the choices behind your personal assistant.

Accounts are open for personal setup with our team. Assistant capabilities and collection prices described here are proposals confirmed during your personal setup.

Getting started

What is Eleven Samurai Private?

A managed personal AI service with human help choosing, configuring and maintaining your assistant. The first step is an account and a conversation about your needs; your personal assistant is set up separately.

What happens after I create an account?

We save your account and a follow-up entry for our team immediately. You can then add your preferred collection and a short description of what you need. The team reviews these details and contacts you to discuss personal setup.

Do I need to be technical?

No. We guide you through setup, explain the choices and help you connect only the services you want. You do not need to choose hardware, configure a server or understand model settings to register.

Does signing up activate an assistant?

No. Registration creates your website account and starts the human setup process. We agree on scope, permissions, service terms and any payment before activating a personal assistant.

Can I speak with someone before choosing a collection?

Yes. Choose Help me choose when creating your account, or use the personal introduction form when it is open. You can describe your priorities without making a purchase.

How soon will my assistant be ready?

Timing depends on the agreed scope, connected services and any hardware or installation. We confirm a setup plan with you personally. The website does not promise instant provisioning or a fixed completion date.

Your account and sign-in

How do I sign up or sign back in?

Use Continue with Google or Continue with GitHub when that option is enabled. New and returning customers use the same buttons. Sign in with the same provider and provider account each time.

Do you receive my Google or GitHub password?

No. You enter your password only with Google or GitHub. We receive an account identifier, your name and an available contact email after the provider verifies your sign-in.

Does Google sign-in give you access to my Gmail or calendar?

No. Website sign-in requests basic identity information only. Calendar, email, documents and other connections require a separate setup and permission decision.

Can I switch between Google and GitHub?

They create separate identities here, even if the email address is the same. We do not automatically merge accounts. Use your original provider; ask the team for help if you created a second account accidentally.

What if GitHub does not share an email address?

Your account can still be created. Add a contact email on your account page so the team can reach you. A manually entered email is contact information, not proof of ownership or a new sign-in method.

Can I finish the questions later?

Yes. Your account and setup request are saved before the optional preferences. Return using the same sign-in provider to edit your name, contact email, preferred collection and goals.

What if sign-in is cancelled, expires or fails?

Return to the sign-in page and start again. A cancelled or unverified sign-in does not create a new account. If the problem persists, contact the team; never send passwords, authorization codes or provider tokens.

How do I sign out or recover access?

Use Sign out on your account page. If you lose access to Google or GitHub, recover that provider account through its own recovery process. Contact us for help identifying your setup request; we will verify ownership before changing access.

Collections, pricing and payment

What is the difference between the four collections?

Essential proposes managed cloud hosting. Residence adds an at-home agent and memory on a configured Mac mini. Presence adds an avatar device and voice experience. Sovereign adds a second Mac mini for a compatible local model. Final equipment and capabilities are confirmed in your proposal.

What are the proposed prices?

Essential: $500/month. Residence: $2,000 upfront and $800/month. Presence: $5,000 upfront and a proposed $800/month. Sovereign: $10,000 upfront and $1,000/month. Prices are in USD and remain subject to a personal proposal; they are not a checkout offer.

Are the upfront hardware prices cumulative?

No. Each displayed upfront price describes that collection as a complete proposed package. We confirm the exact equipment, ownership, shipping, installation and taxes before you commit.

Is a card or payment required to create an account?

No. This release has no payment checkout and creating an account does not start a paid subscription. Your service and payment arrangements are agreed with the team separately.

Are model subscriptions and usage included?

Your proposal will specify the model, account owner, subscription or usage arrangement, included allowances and any third-party fees. Do not assume unlimited use or buy a model subscription for this service before discussing setup with us.

Can I change plans or cancel?

Tell your concierge what you need to change. Upgrade, cancellation, hardware return and transition terms will be set out in your agreement before a paid service begins; no cancellation period or refund entitlement is promised by the preview.

Your personal assistant

What will my assistant help with?

The planned service includes calendar coordination, briefings, reminders, information retrieval and drafts. The team confirms which functions are ready and useful for your setup. Examples on this website are illustrative, not live actions on your accounts.

Will every customer have a Telegram bot?

A dedicated Telegram bot for each personal assistant is the planned starting channel. We guide its creation and account pairing during setup. Website registration does not create a bot, and you should never put a bot token in the introduction form or website chat.

Is WhatsApp available?

WhatsApp is a planned additional option, subject to provider availability and setup requirements. We confirm channel availability in your proposal; the initial signup website does not connect messaging accounts.

Can the assistant send messages or make purchases on its own?

The intended setup is draft-first with explicit approval for consequential actions. We agree the permitted actions and approval boundaries with you before enabling any connector. Signing up does not authorize messages, bookings or purchases.

Which models can I use?

We select a supported model and hosting arrangement around your needs. Cloud and local options have different capabilities and constraints. The service is designed to support changes over time, but availability, model access and licensing must be confirmed during setup.

Can any AI model run on a Mac mini?

No. Model size, hardware memory, speed, licensing and task requirements matter. We select the hardware and compatible model together. A local model is not a guarantee of the same performance as a cloud service.

Privacy, permissions and control

What does this website store?

Account identity and contact details, preferences you choose to save, your setup request, notice acknowledgements and necessary security records. We do not retain Google or GitHub sign-in access tokens. Please keep your initial goals brief and avoid sensitive personal details.

Who can see my setup request?

Authorized Dejima Group staff can review it to arrange your service. The website and database are hosted on Heroku. Your personal assistant has a separate setup process; website support is not automatically given access to its conversations or memory.

Does at-home hosting mean everything stays at home?

No. At-home agent or memory storage is different from local model processing. A cloud model processes the requests sent to it, and messaging and connected services involve their own providers. We explain these data paths before setup.

Can I choose a local model without cloud fallback?

Sovereign proposes compatible local inference with explicit routing choices. We must agree which tasks can run locally and whether any cloud fallback is permitted. External messaging and connectors can still communicate with their providers.

How do I correct or delete my information?

Edit basic preferences in your account, or contact privacy@thedejima.com for access, correction or deletion requests. We verify ownership when needed. The privacy notice describes retention; personal-assistant data will have its own setup and exit arrangements.

Am I joining a marketing mailing list?

No. Account creation and introduction requests allow service-related follow-up, not a marketing subscription. This release uses necessary session/security cookies and does not use advertising or analytics cookies.

Can I take my assistant data with me?

Portable preferences and memory are part of the planned service. Your proposal must define available export formats, connected-service limits, transition assistance and deletion timing before activation. Website signup does not yet create a personal memory archive.

Human help and support

What human concierge time comes with each collection?

Every proposed collection includes a named human concierge, guided onboarding, a first-month check-in, written next steps and a direct way to reach a human between sessions during agreed business hours. Essential includes a monthly 45-minute one-to-one. Residence includes two 45-minute sessions each month. Presence includes a weekly 30-minute session plus two first-month voice/avatar refinement sessions. Sovereign includes a weekly 60-minute session. Each tier replaces the lower tier schedule rather than adding it. Your proposal confirms availability, response expectations and implementation scope before paid activation.

Does Sovereign include a weekly one-to-one with a human?

Yes. The proposed Sovereign service includes a weekly 60-minute one-to-one in its displayed base monthly price. Use it to refine workflows, preferences, model choices and permissions with your named concierge. There is no separate weekly-session add-on charge. Scheduling and implementation work between sessions are agreed in your proposal; website signup does not book a session.

What happens during a human refinement session?

We review what is useful, what is frustrating and one or two improvements you want next. Your concierge agrees a short action list and confirms any permission changes before implementation. You choose what examples to share; a session does not give staff automatic access to private conversations, memory or connected accounts. Sessions are arranged personally, and support hours, response expectations and rescheduling terms are confirmed in your proposal.

Is the website chat my personal assistant?

No. The website chat currently displays scripted examples and cannot access your account, open tickets or act for you. Future business support agents remain separate from your personal assistant and its private context.

Is the voice page a live telephone helpline?

No. It plays a fixed sample greeting using your browser voice service and does not use your microphone. A dedicated telephone support agent has not launched.

Is human support available around the clock?

No round-the-clock response is promised. Human support hours, response expectations and escalation arrangements are confirmed in your service agreement. This is not an emergency service.

Who operates Eleven Samurai Private?

Dejima Group operates the service. The initial setup queue is reviewed personally by our team. For privacy requests, contact privacy@thedejima.com; service setup starts with your account or an introduction request.

What should I do if I still have a question?

Create an account or submit a personal introduction when registration is open, and include a short question with your goals. If you already have an account, update your preferences so the team has the latest context. Never include passwords, secret keys or payment-card details.

Let's talk about your life.

We will help you choose a starting point and explain the details before you commit.
