The personal opportunity operating system moves from invite-only testing to a paid subscription with a seven-day free trial.

VectorOS today opened Vector 1, its personal operating system for work, to paid subscribers. The product had previously been available only to selected testers holding a private invite code. It is now available to anyone at vectoros.ca on a seven-day free trial, after which a subscription is $30 USD per month and can be cancelled at any time.

VectorOS addresses a specific and unglamorous failure: professionals lose work not because they cannot do it, but because the thing that most deserved their attention was buried among everything else. Tasks live in one tool, deals in another, commitments in notes and inboxes, and no single system holds enough of the picture to answer the only question that matters at the start of a working day.

Vector 1 holds tasks, projects, goals, opportunities, meetings and people as one connected picture, and ranks what deserves attention against that picture. Each recommendation is shown with the reason it was chosen, so the user can accept it or overrule it on the evidence rather than on trust.

The product draws a deliberate line through where artificial intelligence is used. AI reads unstructured documents and proposes structure, which is a language problem. Ranking and writing to a user's data are handled deterministically, so the same situation produces the same answer twice and the reasoning can be displayed. Where AI is used and where it is not is published in full at vectoros.ca/ai.

Existing work is brought in by uploading files or a single ZIP archive of an entire folder structure. VectorOS reads text, Markdown, CSV, Word and text-based PDF files, and proposes the tasks, projects, opportunities, meetings and contacts it finds. Nothing is written until the user reviews the proposals and confirms them, and every record created from an import remains linked to the source document it came from. Material that appears to duplicate something already in the account is flagged and left unselected rather than silently created or silently discarded.

Separate ventures are kept apart by workspaces, which scope work to the world it was created in. Contacts are the deliberate exception and remain single records across an account, on the basis that a person is one person regardless of which venture they appear in.

VectorOS is a web application that installs to a mobile home screen. There is no separate native mobile application. It does not currently connect directly to email, calendar or CRM systems; read-only connectors are planned and are intended to follow the same review-before-write rule as every other input path.

Invite-code beta access remains available to selected testers and is not a public free tier.

“Most productivity software is honest storage — it gives you back exactly what you put in, in the order you put it in. The hard part was never writing things down. It is knowing which of the forty true things on the list actually matters this morning, and being able to see why.”

— Braden Bouvier, founder, VectorOS

“We show the reasoning because we expect to be overruled. The user knows things the software does not. A recommendation you can argue with is useful; a score out of a hundred is not.”

— Braden Bouvier, founder, VectorOS
