About General Magic

Your business shouldn’t run you.

gema is your AI business partner: the operations management platform that brings clients, schedule, conversations, team and know-how into one place, learns how the business runs, and does the work.

Our mission: the AI advantage for Main Street. General Magic Inc. is an Ottawa company; gema is short for General Magic. We have built gema in-house since September 2025.
