AIOS Tier-One Domains
The seven core business data domains that should be connected to an AI Operating System. Connecting all seven gives the AIOS enough context to act as a fully informed executive assistant rather than a generic chatbot.
The seven domains
| Domain | Example tool | Data type |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue | QuickBooks, Stripe | P&L, cash flow, runway |
| Customer | CRM, School community | Members, deals, activity |
| Calendar | Google Calendar | Events, deadlines, availability |
| Comms | Gmail, Slack | Emails, messages, threads |
| Tasks | ClickUp, Notion | To-dos, projects, owners |
| Meetings | Fireflies | Transcripts, decisions, action items |
| Knowledge | LLM wiki, Obsidian vault | Articles, notes, SOPs |
Key points
- All seven domains map to the "Connections" step (C2) in the Four Cs Aios framework [src-013]
- Prioritise by pain: start with the domain that wastes the most time or causes the most friction [src-013]
- Each connection should be a direct API integration with a curated reference markdown file, not necessarily an MCP server [src-013]
- "A company where every operator runs a personal AIOS is a company that is truly AI ready and all the data is AI ready." [src-013]
