For founders, operators and team leads
One shared memory for your team and their agents.
Mensara gives your team its own Mind: one place for your decisions, customers and ways of working that your people and the AI agents they already use read together. You decide what each person can see and change, and their agents work within the same access.
We're bringing on a small founding group and setting up each team personally.
- Checks your Mind before it answers
- Change held, then approved
- The next read gets the update
decisions/support-hours.md decisions/support-hours.md decisions/support-hours.md decisions/support-hours.md decisions/support-hours.md decisions/support-hours.md Your team got faster. The handoffs didn't.
Each person's agent knows only what they paste in. You can't hand AI real work until you know what it sees and changes. And connecting people, agents and knowledge is a project nobody has time for.
What it is
Your Mind is one shared memory your team and your AI agents read together.
It holds decisions, customers and commitments, pricing and policies, and how work gets done, kept as plain files your team can copy and keep. Each person's agents see only what that person is allowed to.
When something changes, the update is proposed where the work happens. You can require approval before it goes live, and the history is kept.

Support hours
Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm. Saturday 9am to 1pm from 1 June. Weekend messages outside those hours get a reply on the next working morning.
How you use it
Bring the agent you already use. It becomes the way in.
There's no new app for your team to learn. Connect the AI tool each person already works in, once. From then on it's set up to check your Mind before it answers, and it can propose updates when something changes.
- Connect your tools.
Claude, Codex, Cursor or ChatGPT on the web, with a one-time setup and sign-in. Other compatible AI tools may connect too.
- Work as usual.
Ask, draft and plan in the tool you're in. It can answer using the records that person is allowed to read.
- Keep it current.
When a price, policy or commitment changes, the agent proposes the update, the right person can approve it, and the next time any agent reads it, it gets the current version.

Theo, the COO, tells his agent that support opens on Saturdays from 1 June. It proposes the change to

The change waits for the owner's approval. Until then, the file still says weekends are closed.
- Approved
Sam, the owner, approves it once. The next read returns the updated file, with Saturday hours.
Today, every question routes through you.
In most teams the context lives in a few heads, so the meetings, messages and handoffs all pass through the founder, COO or team lead. When it lives in your Mind, each person's agent reads what that person is allowed to, and far less has to pass through you.
YC partner Tom Blomfield describes the same shift: the context lives in the system, and people work at the edge. YC, May 2026
Before: every role routes through the founder or COO, with meetings, messages and handoffs queuing there. After: the same roles sit around your Mind, each reading its own allowed part, and the founder or COO is free at the edge.
What small teams report publicly.
From public YC videos; these companies are not Mensara customers:
- AnswerThis said in May 2026 that it had passed $2M in ARR largely with two full-time employees, and that its internal agent had built more than 45 of its own tools. (video)
- Legion Health said in February 2026 that patient numbers had grown 4x in a year while its care-operations team stayed the same size. (video)
- YC partner Diana Hu said in April 2026 that teams she has seen cut their engineering sprint time in half and got close to 10x more done. (video)
What changes
The support hours changed without a meeting.
Theo decided to open on Saturdays. He told his agent, and it proposed the change. Sam approved it once. When Kai asked what the help page footer should show, his agent read the new hours from your Mind, with Sam's approval in the history. Pricing, policy and what was promised work the same way: one current answer for everyone who can read it, and changes that wait for the right person.

For the person everyone routes through.
Built first for founders, CEOs and COOs of small companies, where the context sits with one or two people. It works the same way for a solo founder running the business with agents, or a team inside a larger company that wants its own Mind with its own access rules. Your team uses AI, but each person's tool knows only what they paste in. You want AI doing real work across the team without losing track of what it sees or changes.
It isn't for teams who want AI they never have to look at. You stay in charge of what goes in and what changes.
Sam, do we answer support at weekends now?
What did we agree with Halden Foods on renewal?
Is the old refund rule still the one we use?
From the founder
“I ran a company from my own head for years, and I know what that weighs. Mensara is what I built to put it down. I've run my own work on this system every day since January 2026. Today I run Mensara on it. I'm still one person, and I move faster than that should allow.”
