What
it works.
How SDEN company second brain works.
Obsidian as the vault, Hermes as the AI layer
Obsidian is the source of truth: local-first, plain-text, yours forever, with no lock-in. We design the vault structure, conventions, and links so knowledge is findable instead of buried.
Hermes, a third-party AI layer over the vault, makes the brain conversational: ask questions in natural language and get grounded answers with citations back to your notes, plus assisted capture so the brain keeps growing.
Set up, migrated, and adopted
We migrate your existing documentation into a clean structure, wire up Hermes, and set the access and sync model so the right people see the right things.
Then we train your team on the habits that make a second brain stick, capture, linking, and search, because the best knowledge base is the one people actually use.
Secure, governed, and yours
We set access controls, a review rhythm, and clear ownership so the brain stays trustworthy as it grows, and so AI answers never surface what someone shouldn't see.
Everything runs on tools you own: an Obsidian vault you keep and a layer you control. No platform you can't leave.
