Labs

Research, and what comes next.

Labs is where we work on the questions our products raise but cannot answer on a release schedule. Some of it ships. Some of it gets set aside. That is the point of having a Labs.

We keep few tracks open at a time. Each starts the same way. Something in our products relies on a judgement we cannot yet explain, and explaining it properly would change the product.

Nothing here is a commitment or a release date. If a subject interests you enough to want early access, tell us. Early users decide what actually gets built.

Research

Three questions we are working on.

01Active

Predicting performance before publication

Can a model tell you a piece of content will fail, and say why?

We are building a small specialised model, trained on real performance signals. One task: assess a piece of content before it goes out and say what holds it back.

Not a score, a reading. This headline, this opening line, this image, and the change that alters the outcome.

General models write well. They cannot explain why a post underperforms, because they were never trained on that question. It is a distinct problem and it deserves its own model.

What attention rewards, and what it penalises

Why is impeccably written content so often ignored?

A post can be well built, on-brand, entirely correct, and still be scrolled past. We study the regularities. Which traits hold attention, and which make people disengage.

Some registers are penalised with striking consistency. Manufactured enthusiasm. Performed cheerfulness. The promise too smooth to be credible.

Generative models default to exactly these, because they were trained to please.

Our work turns those observations into explicit generation constraints. Not "write better", but a specification of what must not be produced, and why it fails.

The economics of models

What is the cheapest model that still clears the quality bar?

An AI feature that costs more to run than it earns is not a product. We measure quality against cost, per model and per task.

Then we route each generation to the cheapest option that still passes.

This work is invisible to the user. It separates a viable AI business from a subsidised demo. It also sets what we can offer at a price a small company can actually pay.

Incubation

Products in development.

Three projects at an earlier stage than Oboolot RH and Oposto. Listed because they are real work, not because they are ready.

kenny.

Prototype

Mobility · In-car assistant

Satellite navigation has not really changed since the 1990s. A dot on a map and a voice announcing turns. Kenny is a conversational presence instead. It understands the trip and stays quiet the rest of the time.

Oresto

Exploration

Hospitality · Restaurants

Running a restaurant still relies on paper, phone calls and memory. Oresto looks at the operational side. The part nobody opened a restaurant to spend their time on.

Osecours

Exploration

Emergency · Assistance

When something goes wrong, time lost is measured in minutes. Coordination still happens over the phone. Osecours is our work on that moment.

What we do not work on

We do not pursue a subject because a model can technically do it. Every track starts from a task someone does by hand and hates, or from a judgement our products make without justifying it. No such person, no project.
