How does it work?
You open Google.
You see 10 โbest toolsโ articles.
Half of them are sponsored.
And somehow, the winner is always the company that wrote the article.
So you open reviews.
4.8 stars.
4.7 stars.
4.9 stars.
Great.
Now you know that everyone is โamazingโ.
But you still donโt know what fits your business.
And the problem is that most of the information they find is not built for decision-making.
It is built for traffic.
For rankings.
For affiliate clicks.
For demo requests.
For marketing.
But when a business chooses software, it needs a different kind of answers that itโs hard to find.
So together with Amar W., our team built ๐๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐.
A software intelligence layer built around GenSuiteโข.
A set of AI modules designed to help users move from search to decision:
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ - scores software and partners using structured, criteria-based analysis, not just review volume.
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฐ๐ต - matches tools to the actual business needs of the user, instead of showing what is most popular.
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ - helps design a software stack where tools work together
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฉ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ - turns software and partner insights into visual clarity, so users can understand options faster.
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ผ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ (coming soon) - surfaces market trends, demand signals, and category movement across regions.
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฐ (coming soon) - helps businesses assess agentic readiness and discover platforms that fit their environment.
So yes, choosing software in 2026 is still weirdly hard.
Especially when every tool is โ#1 for your businessโ.
But it should not stay that way.

Designed this one to just show what matters โ balance, portfolio move, quick swap โ while AI quietly handles routing and gas in the background. ๐
Keeping balance, portfolio movement, and quick swap upfront is a smart way to reduce cognitive load. Letting AI handle routing in the background is the kind of complexity users should not have to manage.
Founders uploading business formation documents have no idea what "articles of organization" or "EIN verification letters" are, they created these documents years ago and forgot about them. Static help documentation wasn't working and support tickets piled up with the same basic questions.
We designed an AI-powered help panel as a solution. Users click "What's this?" next to any confusing requirement and get explanations in real-time. The system answers follow-up questions, explains why specific documents are needed, and tells users where they'd typically find them.
The design challenge was surfacing this help without cluttering the interface, so we positioned it as a persistent sidebar that appears on-demand.
