Version control built for AI: track every prompt, every output, and every decision

Starting with forward deployed engineers and consultants, we want to make it easier to natively share ideas, frameworks, and methodologies across projects, not just code and slides.

The Problem

We built tools for files.
Not for how people actually work.

01

Collaboration is chaos.

Multiple people editing a Google Doc. Multiple agents writing to the same file. Everyone overwrites everyone. There is no merge. There is no intent. Just destruction.

02

Customization is a nightmare.

A student tailoring resumes for different jobs. A consultant adapting proposals for each client. You end up with proposal_vMarketing.pdf. This is not versioning. This is suffering.

03

Git is not the answer.

Git was built for source code. It assumes you speak its language. Branches, rebases, merge conflicts, this is not how knowledge workers think. We need something fundamentally new.

04

Knowledge is scattered.

Stakeholder requirements live in email. Project management lives in Jira. Technical decisions live in Slack threads that disappear. Code comments tell you what, never why. The full story of any decision is lost across a dozen tools.

What if source control just… worked?

Invisible

You don’t think about it. It captures every change without you lifting a finger.

Intuitive

It works the way you think. No manuals, no workflows to memorize.

Inevitable

Everything is versioned. Nothing slips through the cracks.

Why Now

The moment is now.

01

Building is faster than ever

AI has shifted the bottleneck from “can we build it?” to “should we build it and for whom?”—exactly where forward-deployed teams operate.

02

Forward-deployed teams are the new standard

Palantir. Databricks. Every AI startup. Customer-facing building has become a core function, not an experiment.

03

AI-native by design

Building now means AI integration from day one—structured data, clear APIs, workflows where AI searches, implements, and iterates.

Our Principles

Built on conviction.

01

Impact-Oriented

Every task, artifact, and workflow traces back to a specific customer requirement. If it doesn’t map to impact, it doesn’t belong.

02

Secure & Siloed

Customer data is isolated between engagements. You never accidentally leak one client’s context into another’s workspace. Isolation isn’t a setting—it’s how the system works.

03

Share Methods, Not Data

While customer data stays siloed, the approaches, templates, and lessons learned flow freely across your team. You stand on the shoulders of giants.
