How to start

Start with one slice.
Judge it in eight weeks .

No rip-and-replace, no eighteen-month bet. Pick one workflow, run the pilot alongside what you already have, and decide on real output — a working surface — before you commit further.

The pilot path

Eight weeks, four moves.

A pilot runs on one slice of your domain, alongside what you already have. Here's who does what, week by week.

Week 1–2 Capture

A first slice of your domain — one workflow, one product area — gets captured as structured files.

Your team
Point us at the slice and the people who hold the knowledge.
KBPD
Stands up the repository, runs capture, structures the first artifacts.
Week 3–4 Decide & name the system

The slice gets its decisions recorded and its design values named. The shape of your system emerges.

Your team
Make the call at each gate; review the records.
KBPD
Drafts the decision records and design-source set; wires them to the surfaces.
Week 5–8 Resolve & surface

The structured inputs generate a working surface — a page, a screen, a runbook — end to end.

Your team
Review the output against the spec at the gate; sign off.
KBPD
Runs generation + verification; hands over a surface you can ship.
Week 9+ Own it

Your team runs the pipeline on the next slice. The substrate compounds with each one.

Your team
Drive the next slice; we support.
KBPD
Coaching, review, and the skills library — on tap, not in the loop.

If the pilot doesn't deliver value in eight weeks, you've spent eight weeks — not eighteen months.

Data sovereignty

Your knowledge stays yours.

Pick the isolation that fits your risk profile. The default is conservative; you only open what you choose to.

The five rules, stated plainly

  • 1 Your knowledge lives in your repository, in open file formats you can read without us.
  • 2 Nothing leaves your environment unless you configure it to.
  • 3 No content has to flow to us for the system to work.
  • 4 Every outbound connection is named, logged, and yours to sever.
  • 5 If you walk away, your files keep working — there is no runtime to lose.

Straight answers

The objections we actually hear.

We already use AI tools — how is this different?

AI tools generate. This is the system they generate from. Without a shared, structured source, every tool accelerates in its own direction; with one, they all build from the same decisions. Your tools stay — they just stop guessing.

We're mid-transformation. Do we have to start over?

No. You start with one slice, alongside what you already run. Nothing gets ripped out. The pilot proves value on a corner of the work before it touches the rest.

We're in a regulated industry — how does compliance work?

The constraint travels with the requirement as structured data, so the same source that drives the product also produces the audit trail. The decision record outlives the person who made it — which is exactly what an auditor asks for.

What happens if you go away?

Your knowledge is YAML, JSON, and Markdown in a Git repository. It is readable by any tool and runs on any Git host. Zero of our APIs are required to read, version, or audit it. The portability is the point — not a promise.

How long before we see results?

The pilot is scoped to deliver a working surface in five to eight weeks. If it does not, you have spent weeks — not the quarters a full transformation would cost.
