Open Founding Beta · first 50 paid reports

Bring a paper you believe contains a mechanism for your problem.

Upload a paper, framework, or source idea; choose the region you want to project it toward; and receive hidden mechanisms, multidisciplinary bridges, fit labels, a Trajectory Tree, and next verification steps a single-field reader may miss.

The method, plainly: we extract the source's underlying way of doing things, transplant it into the problem space you choose, and hand you the verification step to run — a mechanism, moved to where it may quietly help.

And we are honest about fit: sometimes the mechanism transplants into your niche, sometimes it does not. Every projection is labeled real bridge, speculative, or no match — with the reason. A clear "this does not fit, and why" is part of what you pay for.

Not a summary

The deliverable is an insight card.

Each card is a candidate research direction with mechanism, bridge, evidence, risk, and verification step.

Inner insight

What did the source really discover underneath the surface vocabulary?

Problem projection

Choose biology, economics, control theory, neuroscience, law, business, or another problem space and ask what the mechanism becomes there.

Trajectory Tree

Included in every report: the path the field actually took, and the latent branches it left behind — each with a first move. See an example ->

Human intuition × AI

Your intuition aims it. The engine carries it.

Picture every paper or source idea as a point in one vast space. The engine extracts its way of doing things, but your intuition chooses the problem region worth aiming at. That chosen region is where the method is tested honestly.

When a mechanism does not fit your narrow space, that is a signal, not a dead end: widening the field — a nearby subfield, an adjacent problem — is often exactly where the transplant starts to work.

Sample output

What the cards feel like.

This is a real run. We ingested AlphaFold — one of the most-cited papers of the decade — and asked Ingest Paper to project its hidden mechanism into other fields. Three of the leads it surfaced:

Cross-disciplinary lead

Folding -> Economics

What we saw: AlphaFold's "constraint-satisfaction toward a single low-energy state" is the same shape as a market settling into equilibrium under competing forces.

Bridge: Treat price discovery as a folding problem — many local pressures resolving into one stable configuration.

Cross-disciplinary lead

Folding -> Quantum Physics

What we saw: The model collapses a vast space of possible structures onto the one nature selects — echoing how measurement collapses a superposition.

Bridge: Read structure prediction as a selection rule over a state space, not a search.

Cross-disciplinary lead

Folding -> Game Theory

What we saw: Each residue "plays" against the others; the folded protein is the Nash equilibrium of the chain.

Bridge: Frame folding as a multi-player game whose stable outcome is the native structure.

How it works

Five steps, no magic.

The engine does the heavy lifting on either side — and in the middle it even scouts the likeliest fit. But the aim is also yours to take.

01UploadDrop in a DOI, arXiv ID, PDF link, title, or short description — it becomes one chosen point in the space of source ideas.
02The engine extracts the methodWe strip away the source vocabulary and lift out the reusable mechanism — its way of doing things, beneath the surface.
This is where you enter03Aiming the mechanism
The engine scoutsOn its own, it searches the landscape for where the source's way of doing things is most likely to take root — ranking fields by the strength of the fit — and aims there.
Your intuition steersOr you take the aim: name the small circle where your problem lives, and the engine carries the mechanism to exactly that spot.
04Honest verdict, reviewedReal bridge, speculative, or no match — each labelled with its reason. Citation identifiers are checked against sources such as Crossref, OpenAlex, arXiv, and ISBN catalogues where available, then the beta report is manually reviewed. We never force a fit.
05Insight cards deliveredYou receive insight cards — each with mechanism, bridge, evidence, risk, and the verification step to run first.
Founding Beta offers

Start with one directed projection, or explore wider.

We accept up to 5 new paid reports per week, and Founding Beta pricing applies to the first 50 paid reports. Every report is generated with AI systems and manually reviewed before delivery. Directed projections count inside the promised card total; unused directed slots become scouted cards. Projections beyond an offer's included allowance add one card for $25 each.

Beyond reports

Golden Garden: not a tier, a project.

Reports explore. Deepen focuses. When a lead becomes a real, defensible hard problem, the path moves to Golden Garden: founder-led work on one high-stakes problem, with room for protectable or licensable value.

  • Opened by qualification, not impulse checkout.
  • Triggered when a lead clears our private Golden Garden screen.
  • Starts with a guided discussion and founder review.
  • Commercial structure can include engagement fee plus shared upside.

All prices are USD. Additional directed projections beyond the included allowance are $25 each and add one card each. Follow-ups: Depth 2 $35, Depth 3 $60, or three Depth-2 credits for $79. The first eligible widening is free; later widening is $15. Secure checkout is handled by Stripe. No card data is collected on this website. Delivery happens only after founder review.

Do directed projections replace scouted cards?

They count inside your promised total. Explorer with two directed targets delivers those two directed cards plus three scouted cards. If you use fewer than the allowance, the unused slots become scouted cards.

What happens if I choose more directed targets than my offer includes?

Each additional target costs $25 and adds one card. For example, Explorer with three directed targets is $104 and delivers six total cards: three directed plus three scouted.

What does Try One Projection include?

One required directed projection with the hidden mechanism, fit verdict, mapping, risk, and next verification step. It is the smallest paid test of a specific intuition.

What if the result is “no match”?

An honest, supported no-match is a valid result. For an eligible no-match, the first widening is free; later widening costs $15. If our quality or safety review blocks delivery, we offer a corrected rerun or full refund.

How do follow-up credits work?

Research includes one Depth-2 credit and Frontier includes two. After credits are used, Depth 2 is $35, Depth 3 is $60, and a three-credit Depth-2 pack is $79.

When will I receive the report?

Founding Beta accepts at most five new paid reports per week. We confirm the expected turnaround after payment and source review; every delivery is manually reviewed before it is emailed.

Explorer includes up to 2 directed cards. Any unused slots become scouted cards, reaching 5 total.

4Aim your intuition — optional

By default the engine projects the source mechanism into the fields where it has the most traction — you don't have to choose anything. If your own intuition is pointing somewhere specific, aim it here.

Projection-scope advisor top-tier model
Press Enter to send, Shift+Enter for a new line. The advisor asks, you confirm — nothing is locked until you say so.
Circles you're pointing to — this mirrors what you and the advisor have settled on. To refine, add, or remove a circle, just say so in the conversation above.

    No circles yet. Describe what you're exploring above; as you and the advisor agree on where to aim, the circles will appear here.

    Or pick directed target fields yourself

    Tick the fields or problem spaces you want directed cards for. Included targets do not add to the base price; each target beyond your offer's allowance adds one card for $25.

    STEM and Engineering
    Life Sciences and Medicine
    Social Sciences and Policy
    Computational and Formal Sciences
    Humanities, Design, and Arts

    Refine the target your intuition is pointing toward

    For each selected target, name the subfield, problem region, or conceptual lens. This does not replace the cards; it tells the report where your human intuition wants the projection aimed.

    Honest by design: every projection comes with a verdict — real bridge (mechanism genuinely maps, with evidence), speculative (worth testing, with the test), or no match (it does not transplant into your niche, and why). We will tell you plainly when a source method does not fit your space rather than dress it up.

    After you submit, Stripe opens with the server-confirmed total: your offer plus $25 for each directed projection beyond its included allowance. No card details are entered on this site; delivery happens only after founder review.
