Question 1

What is Rkive AI?

Accepted Answer

Rkive AI is an applied research AI lab building the AI-native OS: intelligent environments where AI operates continuously across time. We research multimodal reasoning, temporal event modeling, and agentic control — and ship what we build. Two products carry that research forward: Rkive Studio for content creation and Rkive Base for documents, code, and workflows.

Question 2

What makes Rkive different from other AI tools?

Accepted Answer

Rkive is a research lab, not a wrapper on someone else’s API. We introduced Continuity Models as our research paradigm for multimodal reasoning models and systems, and we use time models as the more general, accessible term when needed. "Continuity models" because these models maintain continuity — temporal, logical, operational. The term has a double meaning — temporal continuity as the mechanism, logical continuity as the outcome. That research feeds directly into our products through a shared inference stack, so the AI genuinely improves over time.

Question 3

Who is Rkive for?

Accepted Answer

Rkive Studio is for creators, brands, and marketing teams who want to automate content creation without losing creative control. Rkive Base is for anyone who works across documents, code, and files and wants AI agents that reason across entire projects, not one prompt at a time. Through both products, available cross‑platform, we aim to democratize access to building and distribution for everyone.

Question 4

What are time models and continuity models?

Accepted Answer

Time models is our more general, accessible term. Continuity Models is our research paradigm. We focus on temporal continuity because we believe it is the path to true logical continuity in models. Many current models can develop odd correlations; forcing models to generalize semantic encodings across time gives enough contextual variance to temper spurious correlations without detaching from meaningful ones. This mirrors how human cognition and associative thinking develop in time-rich experience, not only spatial vastness.

Question 5

How does this research show up in Studio and Base today?

Accepted Answer

Both products run on the same continuity stack. In Studio, it supports long-horizon creative decisions across editing, captioning, scheduling, and analytics. In Base, it powers continuity agents that maintain continuous attention and reasoning across files, documents, code, and tasks instead of resetting on every prompt.

Question 6

Are Continuity Models only about models, or also systems?

Accepted Answer

Both. At Rkive, Continuity Models refers to a full production paradigm spanning model design, inference systems, and product behavior, so temporal, logical, and operational continuity stay aligned.

Question 7

What is Rkive Studio?

Accepted Answer

A content creation suite that autonomously edits photos and videos, writes captions, schedules, posts, and runs analytics. It works on full autopilot from your camera roll, but prompt and manual control are always in sync — you can intervene at any level of detail.

Question 8

How does autopilot work?

Accepted Answer

Define your content strategy in settings: tone, visual style, references, and assets. Rkive syncs your camera roll, selects relevant media, creates finished posts that match your strategy, and notifies you when a batch is ready. Double-tap to schedule at an AI-suggested optimal time, or open any draft in editing to refine it.

Question 9

Does it just resize content for different platforms?

Accepted Answer

No. It re‑edits per platform. Cuts, crop logic, caption style, overlays, aspect ratio, and pacing can all differ based on each platform, and based on each account’s strategy and performance. Even two TikTok posts from the same footage look and read very differently when they get edited for two different accounts.

Question 10

Does it generate fake or synthetic images?

Accepted Answer

No. It edits, enhances, and formats what you actually shot. No deepfakes, no random stock filler. If your content strategy requests infographics or designed assets, it can generate those — but the default is always your authentic media.

Question 11

Which platforms does Rkive Studio support?

Accepted Answer

Instagram (business and creator accounts), Threads, TikTok, YouTube, X (Twitter), LinkedIn (profiles and pages), and Facebook (pages). Analytics are available for all connected accounts.

Question 12

What makes Rkive Studio’s analytics different?

Accepted Answer

Multimodal analysis plus a strategy feedback loop. It correlates formats, topics, tone, visual traits, and timing with actual performance to surface actionable levers — not just vanity metrics. The insights feed back into your content strategy automatically, and the data is available to the chatbot so you can deep‑dive conversationally to understand how your content is performing.

Question 13

What is Rkive Base?

Accepted Answer

A workspace hub where local files, cloud storage, and the web are browsed as one surface. You can edit documents in any format — including as code — with full-context reasoning across entire projects. AI agents execute tasks proactively with your approval, not one prompt at a time but with coherence across pages, sections, and formats.

Question 14

How is Rkive Base different from other AI editors?

Accepted Answer

Most AI editors work on a single file or a single prompt. Rkive Base reasons across your entire project with the same context you have. Change a character’s appearance in chapter one, and the agents know to adapt every other chapter. It also treats docs, slides, sheets, PDFs, and code as the same thing — format is a display choice, not a constraint.

Question 15

Can I use Rkive Base for coding?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Code and repositories are handled with the same full-context reasoning as any other document. Agents understand repo structure, dependencies, and history. You can tell them to tweak a program or build an entire application — they architect and execute while you control direction and approval.

Question 16

Can I use Rkive for AI computer use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Rkive AI’s stack excels at computer use thanks to its native multimodal and sequential reasoning. Rkive Base is designed to enable maximum AI autonomy with guardrails — agents see, navigate, and operate across applications while you stay in control of approval and direction.

Question 17

Are continuity agents slower?

Accepted Answer

No by design. Continuity agents keep state and reasoning continuity over time, so they avoid unnecessary resets and repeated context rebuilding. That usually makes execution more efficient for real work. Latency still depends on model choice and task complexity, but continuity itself is an efficiency strategy, not a slowdown.

Question 18

What plans are available?

Accepted Answer

Rkive offers Starter, Premium, Pro, Business, and Enterprise tiers. All plans include a 7‑day free trial with full feature access. Annual billing lowers the effective monthly rate. Visit the pricing page for current prices and plan comparison.

Question 19

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes — 7 days with full feature access at the Business‑tier level. Cancel anytime before it converts to a paid subscription.

Question 20

Do you offer discounts or promo codes?

Accepted Answer

Occasionally through the newsletter or social channels. Otherwise the pricing structure is transparent.

Question 21

What does “full automation” mean in the higher tiers?

Accepted Answer

More media sources, automatic batch assembly, platform-specific re-editing, strategy-guided scheduling, deeper analytics, and multi-seat control depending on the plan.

Question 22

How is my data protected?

Accepted Answer

Encryption in transit and at rest, segregated storage, and strict access scoping. We don’t publicly reuse or sell your media.

Question 23

Does Rkive ever post without my approval?

Accepted Answer

No. Every draft requires your explicit approval before scheduling or posting. Always.

Question 24

Do you train AI models on my content?

Accepted Answer

Most of your data is only used as context for models to respond to you when you prompt them — it is not used for training. We do use some aggregated, processed and strictly de‑identified data and analytics to guide our research and improve model reasoning. This data is never sold, never shared in public datasets, and is used to empower creativity, not to replace it.

Question 25

How do I get started with Rkive Studio?

Accepted Answer

Sign up and pick a plan — your free trial starts immediately. Connect your social accounts. Set up your content strategy (you can ask the AI chatbot to help). Enable camera roll sync. Review your first AI-generated drafts, tweak anything you want, approve, and let the scheduling and analytics loop run.
