Programming systems for Human / AI collaboration.

The opportunity

Software has always made humans more productive. Now there's a new computing primitive — LLMs — and the potential for a real jump is obvious. What's not obvious is the interaction model.

Chat was the first step, and it's being bolted onto our last-generation tools. But what does it look like when you put a reasoning primitive at the core and build new tools from there?

What we build

creAItive

A programming framework that gives AI the structure it needs to be genuinely useful on hard domains. So humans and AIs can align on the "what and why," not just discussing the output.

AuthorCraft

A developmental editor for novelists, built on creAItive. It extracts the structure — themes, character arcs, story beats, pacing — and lets authors work at that level, not sentence by sentence.
