Every leader knows the problem. You bring a strategic question to your team, and what you get back is a chorus of agreement, a few safe suggestions, and zero genuine challenge. The best decisions in history were forged through structured disagreement — but most organizations have optimized it out of their culture.
SynthBoard changes that equation entirely.
What Is SynthBoard?
SynthBoard is one place for your business, your life, and every hard call. You start with your Chief of Staff. She keeps what you tell her on file, answers what she can herself, and knows when a call needs an expert. Talking to her is free within a daily allowance.
When a question needs more than she can give, she proposes a room and shows its card — what it will do, how long it takes, and the most it can cost — before anything runs. Nothing runs until you tap.
- A Consult puts one named expert on one question. It takes about a minute, and the answer comes back in the shape the question needs.
- A Board is for the biggest calls. Several experts, spread across model families, each research alone and then react to one another. Every board is built with someone whose job is to argue against the obvious answer.
Think of it as a board of advisors that includes The Skeptic, The Futurist, and The Devil's Advocate — available on demand, with no ego and no politics. The board's memo gives you the call, the conditions it holds under, who disagreed and why, and a first step with a date.
Why We Built This
Single-model AI tools have a fundamental limitation: they optimize for helpfulness, which often means telling you what you want to hear. Research from Anthropic, OpenAI, and academic institutions has documented this as the AI sycophancy problem — models that agree with users even when the user is wrong.
We built SynthBoard because important decisions deserve adversarial thinking. When you're evaluating a market entry, a pricing change, or an acquisition target, you need structured opposition — not a sophisticated autocomplete.
How It Works
- Tell her what's going on — a strategic question, a business problem, a complex tradeoff
- She proposes the room — one expert for a consult, or a board for the biggest calls, with the card showing its price and time
- You tap — nothing runs until you do, and a board never bills above its card
- The experts work — on a board, each researches alone and then reacts once to the others
- The memo lands — the call, the conditions, who disagreed and why, a confidence that drops with dissent, and a first step with a date
Each of the 24 experts holds a point of view of its own. The Strategist doesn't think like The Devil's Advocate. The Data Scientist doesn't reason like The Visionary. That diversity is the product.
Who Is This For?
SynthBoard is built for founders, product leaders, investors, and strategists who make high-stakes decisions regularly. If you've ever wished you could pressure-test an idea before committing resources, this is your tool.
What You Get Today
SynthBoard keeps what you tell it on file — marked when it has aged, yours to correct or wipe — and brings back what you decided when a new ask would reverse it. She reads your connected tools and says what she read; experts search the live web and cite what they found. A write to your tools is a preview you confirm, on Pro and above. A board's memo shares as a read-only page anyone can open. You can create your own expert on Pro and above.
