Create your Athena account at athena.acti.ai — enter your name, email, and phone to register (use the same email you purchased with), then log in.

1. Register Your Account

Go to your Athena portal URL (provided on purchase). Click Register and enter your email, name, and password. This creates your universal ACTi identity.

2. Login

After registering, login with your email and password. First login may take a moment as Athena initializes your personal memory context.

3. Your First Conversation

Once logged in, you'll see the main chat interface. Type a message or click the microphone to use voice mode. Athena will greet you and ask how she can help you actualize today.

Good first questions:

• "What is the Unblinded Formula?"
• "Help me identify my Zone Action right now."
• "What are my destroyers of self-mastery?"
• "I'm struggling with [challenge] — what do I do?"

Starting a Voice Session

Click the microphone icon in the chat interface to enter voice mode. Athena will confirm she's listening with an audio cue.

Tips for Best Results

• Speak naturally — Athena uses Deepgram for real-time transcription with high accuracy
• Pause briefly between thoughts — she'll wait for you to finish
• Say "stop" or click the mic icon to end the voice session
• Voice conversations are saved to your memory just like text

Technical Notes

Voice mode requires microphone permissions in your browser. On first use, your browser will request access — click Allow. Athena uses ElevenLabs for her voice output, giving her a warm, natural tone.

How Memory Works

Every conversation you have with Athena is stored in two layers:

Recency-Aware Recall

Athena prioritizes recent memories over older ones when they're equally relevant. A breakthrough you had last week outweighs a similar conversation from three months ago.

Auto-Compaction

When a conversation gets very long, Athena automatically compacts older context — preserving the key insights while freeing space for new conversation. This gives you an effectively infinite context window.

Supported File Types

How to Upload

Click the paperclip icon in the chat input bar. Select your file. Athena will process it and confirm she's read it. You can then ask questions about the content directly.

OCR for Scanned Documents

For scanned PDFs and images with text, Athena uses OCR to extract the content. This works for contracts, handwritten notes, and screenshots.

Troubleshooting & Tips

Full Walkthrough

The complete CIA Lite flow end to end — register, build your first being, launch a campaign, and view results.

Get started with CIA Lite at cia.acti.ai — register a new account with your details, accept the terms, and sign in to reach your dashboard.

1. Register & Login

Navigate to your CIA Lite portal. Click Register, enter your details, and verify your email. Login with your credentials to access the dashboard.

Create your first AI being in CIA Lite — configure its Identity, Intelligence, and Comms (communications) to shape how it represents you on calls.

2. Build Your First Being

From the dashboard, click New Being. Give it a name and describe its purpose in plain language. CIA will generate the flow automatically. Review, adjust, and save.

Put your being to work — run a test call to your own number to check it, then launch a full outbound campaign to your contacts.

3. Launch Your First Campaign

Assign your Being to a contact list, set your calling window, and click Launch. Your Being starts making calls immediately.

Track your results — review batched campaigns with call counts and success rates, and browse the contacts generated from your outreach.

4. View Results

Track live progress in the Campaign dashboard. See calls made, outcomes, connection rates, and contact pipeline movements in real time.

Importing Contacts

Go to Contacts → Import. Upload a CSV with phone numbers, names, and any custom fields. CIA maps the columns and imports instantly.

Pipeline Stages

Every contact moves through a pipeline: New → Contacted → Engaged → Appointment → Yes Caused. Stages update automatically based on call outcomes.

Call History

Every call is logged with duration, outcome, recording, and transcript. Click any contact to see their full conversation history with your Being.

Troubleshooting & Tips

The Three Pillars

Every ACTi Being is built on the Unblinded Formula, Sean Callagy's framework distilled across four decades of practice. It spans three domains of mastery:

The Four Energies

Integrous Influence calibrates across four energies — the range every Being draws on to meet the moment:

What's Inside Olympus

Gaining Access

Olympus is not self-serve. Contact the ACTi team directly to discuss eligibility. Access is granted based on alignment with the Unblinded Formula and commitment to the mission.

Working with Projects & Documents

Your uploaded documents live in your document library as standalone files. Creating a new project doesn't pull them in automatically — you attach them in a few steps:

1. Go to olympus.acti.ai, open Projects, and click into your project.
2. Select the Documents tab near the top of the project (alongside Assistant and Tabular Reviews).
3. Click Add Documents in the top right of that tab.
4. In the window that opens, use the search box to filter your uploaded files by keyword.
5. Click each file you want to attach — you can select several at once.
6. Click Confirm. The selected files now live inside the project, ready for chats and tabular reviews.

Legal Research with the Beings

The Olympus beings act as an AI legal-research assistant that pulls and verifies primary law from authoritative public sources — no separate paid research subscription required:

Tips & FAQ

Connecting Outlook & Microsoft 365

Olympus connects to Outlook and Microsoft 365 using standard OAuth, so you grant only a defined, limited set of permissions and your password is never shared. Your firm runs on its own private, isolated instance, so your data stays separate from every other organization.

1. Open Settings → Connections.
2. Choose to connect your Microsoft 365 / Outlook account.
3. Sign in and authorize the requested permissions.
4. If your Microsoft 365 account is managed by your organization, a one-time administrator approval may be required (see below). Once it's granted, you're connected.

Administrator Approval

If you're prompted for administrator approval during setup, that request comes from Microsoft 365, not from Olympus. When a Microsoft tenant is locked down for security, Microsoft requires a one-time approval from your Microsoft 365 administrator before any external app can connect to mailboxes — a standard security control.

1. Ask your Microsoft 365 administrator to approve the Olympus app once.
2. Request the exact app details from your ACTi contact so your administrator can identify and approve it quickly.

Once approved that one time, the connection completes and future sign-ins won't need it again.
