Same State
A plain-English, step-by-step guide to a personal language model you run yourself, one that remembers what you know and drafts what needs doing.
Same State, a setup guide for building your own Human AI Brain, is $29 and written in plain English by Levi Eck. What I call a Human AI Brain is AI that recalls what you already know from your own notes and executes, drafting the work at the speed of AI, and it runs on your own computer with no GPU needed, with a free open-source kit that never sends your drafts, so every draft waits for your approval.

New to the idea? Read what I mean by a Human AI Brain.
A normal human brain can't keep up with AI. The core tools are free or low-cost, and you can set them up step by step, with the right model to chat with when you get stuck. It only took me every waking hour of 6 weeks to set mine up. It may be easier for you.
This $29 guide is my quick setup, meant to save you some ramp-up time and some headaches. You can't outperform AI, but what I call a Human AI Brain can keep pace: it recalls what you know and executes at the speed of AI. It drafts and checks the work, and nothing goes out without your yes.
It pulls back what you've already written when you ask, and it's built to flag when an answer isn't in your notes. Test it on yours. The kit never sends your drafts. Drafts go through a safety check and wait for your approval.
Written for people who aren't engineers. Simple, but not easy.
What you need: your own notes and a computer that can run the kit. No GPU needed. Search and answers run on an ordinary CPU, with a free tool you install yourself.

About me: I'm Levi Eck. I'm not a coder. I'm an operator who uses AI to build, execute and scale. I spent years in automotive sales, where following through was the whole job, and I wanted that same follow-through in my own life. So I built a Human AI Brain on my own computer that remembers what I know and does what needs doing, using Grok, Grok Bots and Cursor. I use it every day. Same State is the guide I wish I'd had: the way I built and tested my own.
$29, including any sales tax/VAT.
Want the whole system later? If you buy the Same State Full Suite for $495 after this guide, I'll refund your $29, so you pay $495 in total, including any sales tax/VAT. No time limit, and you don't need to ask. Details are in the Same State Full Suite License.
Same State Full Suite: Normally $495 on its own, $149 when you add it to the guide at checkout.
Keep what matters in your own notes, not inside a chat. The Same State Guide, a setup guide for building your own Human AI Brain, shows you how to set up search on your own computer that pulls back what you've written when you ask, and it's built to say "Not in your notes" when the answer isn't there. Then a Grok Bot or Cursor can use it to draft the work, and you approve it.
Chats come and go, so I keep what I know in a folder of notes I own. The free kit indexes that folder on your computer, and the tools it supports, Grok Bot and Cursor, can look things up in it. Start a new chat and your notes are still there.
Point it at your notes instead of training a big model. Put your Markdown or plain text notes in one folder, index them with the free kit, and ask questions. It finds the right excerpts with keyword and meaning search together, and it can draft from what it finds.
Yes. Search and answers run on an ordinary CPU, or Apple silicon, by default. For written answers you install one free tool, Ollama or llama.cpp, and plan on 8-16 GB of memory for the default answer model.
I can't tell you what's best for everyone, but here's how I do it. My notes folder and search index stay on my own computer, and the kit has no telemetry of its own. If you turn on an option that sends something off your computer, like Grok answers or an agent reading your notes, the excerpts it uses go to that provider, under their terms.
I'm not a coder either. The Same State Guide, a setup guide for building your own Human AI Brain, is plain English and step by step, and you run the commands as written. It's simple, but not easy: plan on a couple of quiet evenings. The guide is a $29 digital download in Markdown and PDF.
The free kit has both. A Grok Bot skill looks things up in your notes, drafts, runs the checks and stops for your yes, and Cursor connects through the kit's read-only notes server. Grok can also write answers from your notes if you turn it on, with your own account or plan and spend limits.
That's why I built this. One night I hit a usage cap and got locked out, and my current state was sitting in a tool I couldn't open. Now what I know lives in my own files, on my own computer, so a capped or new chat doesn't take it with it. A new chat, a Grok Bot or Cursor can look things up in the same notes.
