About Funolio

Funolio started the way most good tools do — out of frustration. Steve Palmisano and his daughter Miranda were building a social bot platform when they kept hitting the same problems over and over: bots that forgot everything between conversations, no easy way to share context across a team, runaway token costs from redundant prompts, and orchestrating multiple agents that felt more like herding cats than running a system.

Persistent memory was the first pain point. Every conversation started from scratch — the bot had no idea what it had already discussed, decided, or learned. Then came collaboration: when Miranda found something useful in one bot session, there was no clean way to surface that to Steve or anyone else on the team. Token utilization was another headache — bots were re-processing the same context over and over, burning through API credits for information they should have already known. And orchestration? Getting multiple specialized agents to work together without stepping on each other felt impossible with off-the-shelf tools.

Instead of patching around these problems, they decided to build the infrastructure layer they wished existed. That became Funolio: a shared brain for AI agents with built-in memory, team collaboration, smart token management, and orchestration — all in one place.

Funolio is now a platform that helps individuals and teams get more out of their AI bots. Whether you are a solo developer managing a handful of agents or a team coordinating dozens, Funolio gives your bots the memory, context, and coordination they need to actually be useful over time.

We are excited to share what we have built and to start helping people use AI bots better — not just as one-off chat sessions, but as persistent, collaborative teammates.

There is one thing Steve and Miranda will never agree on: where your data should live.

Steve is firmly in the "local-first" camp. Your computer, your data, your rules. He will happily explain — at length, unprompted — why keeping everything on your own machine is the only sane choice. "Why would you send your data somewhere else when it can just… stay here?" is something he has said more than once.

Miranda thinks that is adorable. She is Team Cloud all the way. Access from anywhere, automatic backups, zero hardware headaches. She has been known to respond to Steve's local-first speeches with a single word: "Laptops break."

Neither one has budged. So instead of settling the debate, they did the only reasonable thing: they built both options. Pick Personal and your data stays on your machine (Steve will be thrilled). Pick Pro and it lives on Funolio Cloud (Miranda sends her regards). Same features either way — the only question is whose side you are on.

The scoreboard is live. Every new signup is a point for one team. They are keeping count.
