Getting Started with Steno.ai
Our process is a “done-for-you,” white-glove service designed to get your AI Twin live in 10 business days or less.
The Onboarding Process
Step 1: Agreement & Subscription
To begin, you sign our service agreement and activate your monthly subscription. There is a one-time $5,000 setup and training fee, but we’re currently waiving that for new customers.
Step 2: Onboarding Call
We schedule a 30-minute kickoff call to discuss:
- Your goals for the AI Twin
- The desired personality and tone
- The intelligence and behavior you want it to embody
- Boundaries and guardrails
- Your content library
This call ensures we understand your vision and can customize the AI to match your brand and expertise.
Step 3: Content Delivery
You provide us access to your content via a shared Dropbox or Google Drive folder. This is the only thing we require from you, besides feedback.
Supported Content Types:
- Audio: Podcasts, voice memos, seminar recordings
- Video: YouTube videos, online courses, webinars, event recordings
- Text: Books, PDFs, articles, blog posts, whitepapers, emails, website content
The more comprehensive your content library, the more knowledgeable and capable your AI Twin will be.
Step 4: AI Training & Customization
We handle all the technical processing, training, and customization. Our team:
- Ingests and processes your content
- Trains the AI on your unique knowledge and methodology
- Creates your voice clone
- Configures personality, tone, and guardrails
- Sets up authentication and access controls
Step 5: Demo Delivery
Within 10 business days, we deliver V1 of your AI Twin for you to test and review. You’ll receive:
- A working demo of your AI Twin
- Access credentials for testing
- Instructions for providing feedback
Step 6: Feedback & Refinement
You test the AI and provide feedback. We iterate based on your input to ensure the AI accurately represents your expertise and meets your expectations.
Step 7: Implementation & Go Live
Once you approve the AI, we help you integrate it into your website, platform, or application and go live.
Content Updates
Automatic Syncing
If your content is from a public source we’re connected to (like a YouTube channel or podcast feed), our system will automatically sync with new material.
Manual Updates
For private content, you’ll have access to a management portal where you can upload new files to the knowledge base at any time.
What Happens After Launch?

Factors That Can Accelerate Timeline:

Do You Offer a Free Trial?
We do not offer a free trial. Our service is a fully custom, white-glove experience that begins with a subscription.
From the moment you sign up, our team is dedicated to building a bespoke AI Twin tailored specifically to your content and brand.
How Can I See a Demo?
If you interacted with Leo (our sales AI) on meet.steno.ai, you’ve already experienced a demo of the product. The way you interact with Leo—via text and real-time voice—is exactly how your customers will interact with your AI Twin.
You can also explore the Tony Robbins AI App, available on the iOS App Store or Google Play Store, to see a production example.
