Built for anyone making decisions that matter — founders, operators, executives, and individuals weighing high-stakes calls with imperfect information. Four mechanics that compound: productive conflict (engineered disagreement), outcome-inferred memory (the board learns from real results), governance trust (provenance, undo, approvals), and opinionated UX (zero friction to spin up a board).
