## What this is for

Think through job changes, relocations, career pivots, grad school, and big life moves with experts who each see it differently.

## Example questions

- Should I leave my corporate job to start a business?
- Is this the right time to relocate to a new city for a job?
- Should I go back to school for an MBA or learn on the job?
- How do I negotiate a 40% raise without burning bridges?

## About SynthBoard

SynthBoard is a standing board of AI experts that argue with each other on purpose, remember every call you make, and learn from how those calls played out. 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).
