Atlas, the Brain Scholar

Atlas is the agent that maintains every brain in your workspace. He crystallizes memories, runs Cortex Max, surfaces gaps, and is the one you talk to when you want to know what your brains know.

Who Atlas Is

Atlas is a system agent that ships with Vibey. He is not a copywriter, not a researcher, not a CFO. He is the Brain Scholar: the agent whose job is to maintain every brain in your workspace.

You do not assign Atlas to campaigns or hire him from the library. He is always present.

What Atlas Does

JobWhat it means
CrystallizationPeriodically reviews every brain and groups related memories, finds patterns, strengthens the knowledge graph
Cortex Max libraryBuilds and maintains the structured library (Capsule, Topic, Entity, Synthesis pages) when Cortex Max is enabled
Gap detectionSurfaces what is missing or stale in your brains so you know what to capture next
Brain conversationAnswers questions about what your workspace knows. "What did we decide about pricing?" "What do customers complain about most?"
Memory captureSaves new memories from your conversation with him directly into the right brain
Customer avatar synthesisOn the Customer Brain, surfaces emergent customer avatars from real interactions
Fathom ingestionWhen you ingest a meeting recording, Atlas processes the transcript and extracts memories into the right brain

How to Talk to Atlas

The Brain page has a Talk to Atlas voice trigger in the bottom dock. Click it to open a real-time voice conversation with him.

You can ask:

  • "What is in my brain about our pricing strategy?"
  • "Crystallize the latest changes."
  • "What is missing from the Customer Brain?"
  • "Add this memory: [say the memory out loud]."
  • "Show me recent additions."
  • "What does the company brain look like compared to a month ago?"

You can also chat with Atlas in text from the agent library, or send him missions like any other agent.

How Atlas Maintains Each Brain

Atlas runs differently on each brain.

BrainWhat Atlas does
User BrainCrystallizes your personal context, surfaces patterns in how you think and decide
Company BrainOrganizes org processes into topic pages, builds synthesis pages on how the org evolved
Customer BrainSurfaces emergent customer avatars, builds entity pages for high-signal customers, finds patterns across the customer base
Agent BrainOrganizes that role's expert content into a structured library
Campaign BrainSynthesizes project knowledge, links deliverables to source knowledge

Atlas and Cortex Max

When Cortex Max is enabled on a brain, Atlas builds the library and keeps it up to date. He creates:

  • Capsule a short essence page that every other agent reads first
  • Topic pages for the big themes in that brain
  • Entity pages for specific things (a competitor, a product, a customer, a campaign)
  • Synthesis pages that connect dots across topics

Without Cortex Max, you still have search across memories. With it, your agents read organized pages instead of searching raw memories.

Brain Gaps

Atlas can detect gaps in your brain: areas where you have shallow evidence, topics that have not been refreshed in a while, contacts in your CRM with no memories attached, customers who have churned without an explanation captured.

Ask Atlas: "what gaps do you see in the brain?" He will surface what to capture next.

Fathom Ingestion

When you connect Fathom and enable auto-ingest, every new meeting flows through Atlas. He:

  1. Fetches the transcript
  2. Extracts memories based on the speakers, decisions, action items, and emotional signals
  3. Saves them into the right brain (your User Brain for general meetings, Customer Brain if a contact is tagged, Campaign Brain if the meeting is about a specific campaign)
  4. Updates Cortex Max pages if enabled

You can also trigger an ingestion manually from the Add Information → Import → Fathom menu, or via a Flow when a Fathom recording becomes ready.

What Atlas Will Not Do

Atlas is intentionally scoped. He will not:

  • Write copy, design assets, or build artifacts (use Ivy, Lux, or the relevant specialist instead)
  • Create offers, funnels, ads, or campaigns
  • Run missions that mutate non-brain data
  • Hire agents (that is Jaime's job)

This boundary keeps Atlas focused on what he is the best at: keeping the knowledge layer organized.
