Aletheia Core, Heinrich, FieldLine PDF, FieldLine Planner, RightNow, HAVEN, PRISM, and Shield — one connected EMPHOS ecosystem.
EMPHOS Group is a founder-led Canadian software and research company. We develop Aletheia, the intelligence behind Heinrich, alongside practical software such as FieldLine PDF. Our purpose is to build technology that helps people think clearly, work effectively, and stay in control.
Our portfolio brings together language-model research, an AI workspace, and professional document software. Each product addresses a different part of the way people think, create, and work.
Aletheia is EMPHOS's core language model, built around our own frequency-based architecture. It is the foundation of our work on local intelligence and the model behind Heinrich.
Model execution, inspection tools, and training records bring the technology into view, connecting original research with practical applications.
Heinrich is the agentic workspace built on Aletheia. It is designed to bring conversations, projects, memory, and tools together so people can carry work from a request through to a reviewable result.
Project continuity, tool permissions, and records of completed work keep the task and its progress in view.
FieldLine PDF is our Windows application for reviewing, marking up, and measuring PDF documents. It brings the same attention to control and clarity to everyday professional document work.
Review drawings, add clear markups, take measurements, and prepare documents for the next stage of a project.
The EMPHOS name describes how we want our technology to serve people. These values guide the research questions we pursue, the products we develop, and the experience we aim to deliver.
Begin with the person doing the work. Understand their needs, their constraints, and the consequences when software gets in the way.
Make deliberate choices. Keep interactions understandable, use resources thoughtfully, and give every feature a clear purpose.
Keep the right context within reach. Build software that is attentive to the task and clear about what is happening.
Create a dependable place to work, think, and create. Trust grows through understandable behaviour, useful controls, and care for the user's information.
Carry ideas into practical use. Consider setup, everyday operation, recovery, and support as part of the product itself.
Think about how the parts work together. Give each product a clear role and make the overall experience coherent.
EMPHOS investigates how intelligence can be represented, executed, inspected, and applied. Aletheia and Heinrich connect those questions to working software and real tasks.
Aletheia's frequency-based architecture is the focus of our work on language quality, memory requirements, and local execution.
Heinrich brings project context, controlled tool use, and reviewable outputs into a workspace for ongoing tasks.
Defined tasks and repeatable tests support our work on model quality, memory use, and execution speed.
Connect with us on model architecture, local computing, applied intelligence, and software integration. We welcome researchers, engineers, and development partners with a shared interest in bringing new technology into practical use.
Contact us about researchClear interactions, useful controls, and attention to everyday details shape the EMPHOS approach to software.
Aletheia and Heinrich put local execution at the centre of the experience, with project context, tools, and user control close to the work.
Efficient model execution, careful memory use, and practical performance on local hardware are central to our research.
From project work in Heinrich to PDF review in FieldLine, our design focus is readable controls, consistent interactions, and useful feedback.
EMPHOS is a long-term undertaking: original research, sustained product development, and direct relationships with the people who use our software.
EMPHOS began with Victor Jacob Brodeur in Chilliwack, British Columbia: an independent effort to build intelligent software with a clear purpose and a strong sense of responsibility to the person using it.
That work now spans language-model research, an AI workspace, and professional PDF software. The connection is a consistent ambition: understand the problem deeply, build the underlying technology, and carry the details through to practical use.
The Fraser Valley remains home. As EMPHOS develops, the aim is to build lasting products and meaningful relationships with customers, researchers, and partners who share that commitment.
The vision for a future EMPHOS headquarters draws on Earthship architecture, thoughtful energy use, and a close connection to the surrounding landscape. It is an ambition for the company's future: a place for focused work, research, and collaboration, built as the business grows.
