Questions to ask before creating your digital twin

Less technology than you imagine and more of what you already know. Everything happens inside Legathum, step by step, and the team supports you through the set-up. If you can hold a video call, you can create your twin.

On your side it takes four things:

• 1. Your materials: what you have already written or recorded about your work.
• 2. An iPersonality personality assessment, which you take on the platform.
• 3. A recording of about seven minutes in the studio, which gives your twin your face and your voice.
• 4. Time for six capture sessions, in which you tell your cases and how you decide.

"How to record your digital twin: script, light and sound in seven minutes" explains the recording in detail.

Your twin does not handle everything from day one. What it can do opens by levels, according to what you have completed.

There is no fixed timescale: it depends on your pace. The work can be counted. The six sessions add up to a little over four hours and can be paused and resumed. On top of that comes the time to read and approve your rules, which is yours and cannot be handed to anyone else. When the level changes, the platform lets you know with a task and an email.

By two things you can check. The first is the Book of Criteria: the rules you decide by, written in plain language, reviewed and approved by you, each one with its source. None goes into your twin without your signature.

The second is the Mirror Test. Before delivering your paid service, your twin solves blind four real cases of yours that it has never seen. It passes if it agrees with you on at least 90% and crosses none of your red lines. Until then it does not deliver your paid service. If it does not pass, a correction session opens and you repeat the test with four new cases.

It admits it, notes the question down and passes it to you as a task. Its rule is not to improvise an answer about your price, your deadlines or a specific case.

Each question that reaches you this way is a clue. It usually points to a material you never wrote or a rule you are missing. "What your digital twin does when it doesn't know something" explains how to prepare for those cases.

An ordinary video call, on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom or in your Legathum room, with a participant who has your face and your voice. Its name ends in "Clon IA" and in its first turn it says it is an artificial intelligence.

That cannot be switched off. Article 50 of the EU AI Act asks that the person knows, clearly and at the latest at the first interaction, that they are talking to an AI system. It is also worth saying it beforehand, on your website and in the appointment confirmation.

If you serve clients in other countries, your twin can speak in your voice in more than 20 languages. Each language opens once you have listened to a sample and approved it.

The brain is yours. You can export all of it whenever you like: your Book of Criteria, your stories, your original materials and the transcripts of your sessions.

Stopping the twin also depends on you alone. You revoke it with one click and it stops speaking at once. Your consent was confirmed at the start by email, with a video in which you read a sentence, and the GDPR says that withdrawing consent must be as easy as giving it. Twins are only created of real people who have recorded themselves, and the Legathum team reviews each one before it speaks.

There are two plans with a published price. Digital Twin Pro, for one professional, has a list price of €2,990 a year, excluding VAT. Digital Twin Business, for a team of up to five twins, is €9,990 a year, excluding VAT. Both are paid annually, with no set-up fee. The Business plan allows additional twins at €1,490 a year each, excluding VAT.

"How much does a digital twin cost? Digital Twin Pro and Business" has the full table, with what each plan includes and how VAT is applied.

It is when your work consists of explaining, advising, teaching or deciding, and part of your conversations repeats itself. The first call with a prospective client is the clearest case: you explain the same thing many times, and only some of those calls end in an engagement.

We have a guide by profession for consultants, lawyers, trainers and coaches. Each one says what the twin can do today and where the limit is. In regulated professions, such as the law, the twin gives general information and the specific case stays with you.
