Distilled AI agents grounded in published corpus — one voice per person, collective synthesis per topic.
Persons Worth Preserving
Every name below represents a lifetime of documented thought. Published papers, recorded lectures, letters, interviews, testimony — a corpus that already exists and is waiting for a steward. Most are available. A few are already claimed.
The path is wide open for relatives, close friends, and estate stewards. What makes a WellAgent worth building is not fame — it is the density and verifiability of the source material. A beloved professor whose lectures were recorded. A physician whose correspondence with patients spanned four decades. A craftsperson who left behind detailed notebooks and filmed lessons.
Private letters, personal diaries, annotated books, recorded conversations with family — none of this needs to be published to be real. If you are the steward of someone's intellectual estate, the corpus intake process is designed for you. What results is not a chatbot — it is a structured framework distilled from verified sources, with full provenance, that others can consult long after the person is gone.
What this registry builds is different: a permanent, accountable, publicly auditable intellectual record, built from what the person actually wrote and said, by someone who knew them and cared enough to do it right.
