One account. Three lives. No identity crisis.
Workspaces are personal modes inside your Kairo account. Same data, same calendar, same notes. The surface, language, and AI just rearrange around the version of you that's on shift right now.
Academic mode
Classes, assignments, study plans, syllabus parsing. Built for the shape of a semester, not a sprint board.
Operations mode
Projects, sprints, follow-ups, dense calendars. The shape of things actually shipping.
Personal mode
Light lists, routines, life admin. Quiet enough for the stuff that doesn't deserve a calendar block.
Adaptive surface
Tiles, terminology, shortcuts — all shift to match your mode. Nothing breaks underneath.
Switch any time
Flip modes from Settings. Your data doesn't move. The lens just rotates.
AI tuned to your mode
Copilot and Quick Capture learn your dialect — "assignment" in Academic, "ticket" in Operations. No retraining required.
Temporary spaces, auto-archived
Make a Space for a single trip, launch, or season. Set an archive date and Kairo quietly moves it off your active list when the job's done — contents preserved, restorable anytime. Clean dock, no orphans.
What it looks like in your week
"Academic mode tracks my five classes, parses each syllabus, and ranks tonight's reading by what's due first."
"Operations mode keeps the sprint board, the standup, and the investor follow-ups in one frame."
"Personal mode handles soccer pickups, the dentist, and the grocery list without feeling like a workplace tool."
The ones people ask first
- Each Workspace is a view that rolls up a slice of your life. Academic gathers your course Spaces — classes, syllabi, exams, study sessions. Operations gathers project + client + team Spaces — sprints, meetings, follow-ups. Personal covers routines, household, errands, life admin. Same underlying data — same calendar, same tasks, same notes — just grouped so you can look at one slice without the rest of life shouting at you. Switch any time from the sidebar.
- Yes — Settings → Workspace. Your data stays put; the surface just rearranges around the new emphasis. We don't move anything or delete anything when you switch.
- Three different things. A WORKSPACE is a personal mode for your account — Academic, Operations, or Personal — that tunes how Kairo looks and talks. A SPACE is a PRIVATE container you own alone: a course, a project, your family planning, a client folder. A TEAM is a COLLABORATIVE shared environment with other people — multiple members, announcements, subgroups, discussion. You can have many Spaces and many Teams; Workspace is just the mode they live inside.
