Hey everyone, I'm Fred. 51, solo founder, bootstrapped, building from the Netherlands.
Prio is an AI chief of staff for founders. One chat to manage your inbox, calendar, tasks, contacts, and follow-ups across Gmail, Outlook, Google Calendar, Drive, and LinkedIn.
The core idea: nothing executes without your approval. The AI drafts emails, schedules meetings, triages your inbox, processes invoices. But every action goes through an approval queue first. You review, edit if needed, approve.
Here's where it gets interesting. Every approval and every rejection is a training signal. Over time, Prio learns which actions you always approve without edits and starts automating those. Routine stuff gets handled. High-stakes decisions stay in your hands. You're not giving up control, you're teaching the system how you work.
I built this because I wanted an assistant that earns trust instead of assuming it. EU hosted, GDPR native, because European founders deserve tools built for them, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Would love your feedback. Happy to answer anything about the Vercel tech;
