An open workshop for people and AI

Proteus by ASKA

Proteus turns one AI agent engine into a team of six AI roles that plan, research, design, build, and check real work under your direction.

The kit is open source under Apache-2.0. Paid setup and ongoing service from ASKA are separate offers. What is not yet built is listed further down this page.

The public kit has not yet been independently demonstrated to deliver a real product end to end. That line stays until the demonstration exists.

How a setup works

How a setup works

1. Look at the kit

The kit source is public at github.com/aska-digital/protean-kit. Open-core version 1.6.0.

2. Discuss a setup

Talk to ASKA about running it in your environment with ongoing service.

3. Run it in your environment

Hands-on setup inside the client environment, sold with ongoing service.

Who it serves

Who it serves

For technical teams

Proteus runs on local models, hosted models, or a mix. Optional privacy helpers prepare text before it leaves your machine. Redact flags sensitive text for review. Gist suggests a topic hint. Title drafts a label. Each role keeps to its lane. The reviewer is separate from the builder.

For buyers

The kit is free under Apache-2.0. ASKA charges for hands-on setup and ongoing service inside your environment. Pricing is public: setup, deployment, and training at $9,300 USD one time, plus $540 USD per month for ongoing service. Scope limits are stated in writing.

What this does not do

What this does not do

Available now: the open-source kit, templates, working rules, build checks, and the site generator. Still being built: the conversational setup agent and the one-command installer. Full status list.

An illustrative example

Illustrative example

An illustrative walkthrough, not a live deployment: a repair shop wants a booking page. The Director frames the page and the done-checks. The Researcher gathers opening hours, services, and prices. The Architect turns that into a build plan. The Designer lays out the page. The Builder writes the code. The Reviewer checks it against the plan before anything is called ready. The client sees what is ready and what is still uncertain.

Illustrative — shows how the roles hand work to each other, not a delivered result.

What makes that work

What makes that work

Each role passes actual work to the next — research, plan, design, code — not a claim that the work happened. A separate reviewer checks the result. The handoff includes what is finished and what is still uncertain.
