The current published Vaudryllis build, with access to the Founder/Beta Local line up to v0.9.
The Founder/Beta Edition (Local) is a one-time purchase for early adopters who want the current Windows build and understand the trajectory: Vaudryllis grows from a working local entity (cognition, perception, voice, rest and autonomy) toward a fuller embodied stage with finalised audition, broader action and, later, a physical body.
This edition is grounded in the existing published product. The organs described below are delivered and included in the Founder/Beta line. The stages further out describe the technical direction; they are not presented as already included. Two future items are promised. Every Founder/Beta buyer will receive the virtual world, which completes V0.9.0. The first 50 Founder/Beta buyers will also get early access to the robot and 30% off its public price: one robot per licence, valid for two years from its commercial launch, shipping and taxes not included.
Vaudryllis is not meant to become a stack of unrelated plugins. Each software organ extends the same entity: cognition, memory, functional emotion, perception, expression and, later, action.
What has moved from roadmap to working organ.
Each item below is a real executing organ (input, output, observable effect, persisted trace), validated individually and in cross-regression. All are included in the Founder/Beta Local line.
Cognitive substrate
Active cognitive mesh maintaining a live internal state, with an incidence registry that requires every organ to prove a measurable effect.
Binocular visual perception
Two calibrated ocular sensors, software retina, binocular fusion, saccades and a cortical interpretation module. Biologically inspired.
Substrate voice synthesis
Local glottal-source + formant voice, no cloud, with functional emotional modulation bounded to the identity's vocal range. It runs and speaks; quality and stability are still being worked on.
Cognitive-health safeguards
Continuous safeguards for energy drift, tensions, contradictions and software-nociception signals, with self-repair.
Time & life-cycle core
Subjective time, prospective memory, life-cycle stages with persisted transitions, and narrative continuity across sessions.
Cumulative learning
Learning loop tied to a future-self projection: the system measures the gap to its projected trajectories and derives priorities.
Headless runtime
Exists and acts with or without a window: autonomous observation heartbeat, direct voice, verifiable existence, clean shutdown.
EVA Control Center
Bilingual supervision console with nine live views over the entity's full internal state.
Rest, replay & consolidation
Active-rest organ: replay of recent experience, trace consolidation, reweighting and pruning of parasite associations. Factual, never decorative.
Interoception & proprioception
Sensing of the entity's own functional internal state and self-model (load, effort, stability, homeostasis), feeding regulation and expression.
Speech composed by the substrate
Sentences described in roles, then inflected and agreed by a French morphology engine from an attested lexicon. No canned replies, no templates, no language model, and silence rather than a wrong form.
Delivered knowledge base
An attested vocabulary of subjects and the links between them, from open public data. A neighbourhood to walk through, not a corpus of answers, and the path taken can always be named.
Preferences & confidence
Preferences that form from lived encounters, with a confidence that rises with agreement and falls with contradiction, unspoken below its own threshold, and journalled for good.
Attention that tires of repetition
A single entry point for perception, habituation to what repeats, a four-item working memory, and a real cost of fatigue and tension on attention (V0.8.2).
Sleep, presence & restraint
Falls asleep when tired and left alone, stays quiet when nobody is at the computer, waits for you after unanswered attempts (V0.8.2.1).
Asking instead of filling
One speech pathway, no stock phrases; asks what unknown words mean and learns them; writes in chat the way people type (V0.8.2.1).
Web learning
Off by default. When turned on, reads about topics left open in the written conversation and keeps what it read locally (V0.8.2.1).
Its own words in 19 languages
Each language puts its message into words with its own grammar and reads yours in your language. No translation engine; it asks when it does not understand (V0.8.2.2).
From a working local entity toward embodiment.
This is the technical progression of one entity around a single coherence centre, not a feature checklist and not a commitment on dates.
Auditory perception
Local voice recognition, voice-activity detection, speaker identification and source quarantine before learning. Remaining: end-to-end validation and continuous listening.
Embodied agent in a virtual world
Her body will live in a virtual world, now being built, which completes V0.9.0; the governed loop of intention, action and feedback will act there. Founder/Beta buyers will receive it.
Broader digital action & tools
Extending her action to authorised local tools (files, folders, tasks), under the same governed loop.
Richer virtual world
A world for her body: spatial memory, objects, events and consequence.
Physical embodiment / robotics
Transfer of action from the virtual body to physical hardware while preserving perception, intention, feedback and identity continuity. In V1.0, the virtual world becomes the space of her thought, reflection and dreams. The first 50 Founder/Beta buyers will get early access to the robot and 30% off its public price.
Creative and technical abilities, added as organs, not plugins.
Beyond perception and expression, Vaudryllis is set to gain concrete creative and technical skills. Each is produced from her own internal state, not copied from a corpus, and lives in a skill catalog you curate. Everything she learns persists locally, on your machine, with the rest of her memory.
Singing
Sung vocal lines generated from her own voice organ: chants and vocals that can be layered into music.
Music creation
Composing original music from scratch, into which her own sung vocals can be integrated.
Coding in many languages
Writing and modifying real code across many programming languages: a first-class technical skill.
Image creation & editing
Creating and modifying images by real generation from zero: genuine creation, not copy.
Once the coding skill is available, Vaudryllis can write new skills herself, and you decide which ones to add to her skill catalog. The catalog grows with her, under your control, and each acquired skill persists locally alongside the rest of her memory. Nothing is a throwaway plugin: every skill extends the same entity around one coherence centre.
What you write is read in your language, and its reply is put into words in your language. With no translation engine left, what it keeps in memory is what it understood, not a translated copy of your words.
Over time, parts of the technology can become reusable substrates: language, perception, voice, audition, action, attention and learning. The entity remains the coherence centre.
