Prototypes & Experiments
What gets built when the methodology meets real problems.
From live interactive demos of the Human–AI Loop to earlier product explorations — each one tests a hypothesis about how humans and AI work better together.
Inside the Loop
The methodology, demonstrated
These aren’t concept mockups. They show an actual sprint planning session — with a human and two AI teammates working together inside a shared workspace. Built by The Triad. Every decision you see was made in real time.
Interactive Demo
Triad in Slack — Prototype
A guided sprint planning session with Maura, Soph, and CP inside a shared Slack-like workspace. Follow the happy path or trigger a re-loop. Watch the shared state panel update in real time as the team works. The Human–AI Loop, made experiential.
Visual Walkthrough
Triad in Slack — Infographic
12 panels walking through how AI teammates augment a sprint — from poll interpretation to proactive risk flagging to sprint lock. Built to make the methodology tangible at a glance. Designed for LinkedIn and consulting conversations.
Earlier Explorations
Consumer AI experiments
Before the methodology had a name, these prototypes were asking the same question from different angles: how can AI augment human capability without replacing human judgment?
Pep’r
Alpha
AI thought partner for strategic thinkers. Built on the premise that most AI makes you faster — Pep’r makes you smarter. Challenges assumptions, asks better questions.
Hypothesis: Can AI make strategic thinking sharper?
Testing now — early signals say yes, if it asks better questions.
Casi
Beta
Caregiving assistant for aging parents. Knows every appliance in the home, speaks plain language, never judges, stays patient through the fifth question about the same button.
Hypothesis: Can AI reduce technology anxiety for aging users?
Yes — if designed with empathy and patience.
Sommit
Beta
Judgment-free wine companion. Budget-agnostic advice and plain language guidance — democratizing expertise that’s been gatekept by pretension for too long.
Hypothesis: Can AI democratize gatekept expertise?
Yes — if tone and accessibility are prioritized.
ShopTuner
Coming Soon
Exploring AI defensibility in commerce. Where does sustainable competitive advantage actually live when AI commoditizes the surface layer?
Hypothesis: Where is AI defensibility in commerce?
In platform-specific data and trust relationships.
“For 20 years I built platforms that connected people at scale. The question I’m asking now is the same one — just with a new kind of teammate in the room.”
