People, questions, useful outputs

See a question
take shape.

Explore three original examples of the work our platforms can help structure.

Cipher · Venture assessment

Understand the venture before building the app.

A founder wants to create a neighborhood repair service. A structured assessment helps separate the intention from the assumptions that still need a test.

A useful outputA clearer customer question and a focused next experiment.

Explore Cipher
360Illustrative example

Would a repair service help?

The intention
Help residents repair household items instead of replacing them.
The assumption
A new app would make it easier for people to choose repair.
What to learn
How people handle a broken item today, and what makes repair difficult.
A useful next test
Talk through a recent repair decision with residents and repair providers.

An assumption becomes a question to investigate.

Index · Innovation intelligence

Connect a technology with the people who could use it.

A low-cost water sensor may have several possible applications. Innovation intelligence helps organize the use cases, evidence and development questions around each one.

A useful outputA view of potential uses, readiness gaps and the questions for a first pilot.

Explore where a low-cost sensor could be useful before choosing its path to practical use.

PeopleWho would use the reading?
SettingWho installs, maintains and interprets it?
First pilotWhat would a useful test need to prove?

A use-case map and a pilot question. No technical performance is assumed.

Arkus AI · Conversational guidance

Turn a broad request into a clearer working draft.

A facilitator needs to follow up after a workshop. A focused conversation can help organize the material while keeping the human decisions visible.

A useful outputA structure the facilitator can check, improve and use with the team.

A more useful follow-up

Example prompt

“Help me turn approved workshop notes into a short recap. Keep proposed actions separate from agreed commitments.”

A useful response structure
  1. What the group discussed
  2. Questions still open
  3. Agreed actions and proposals, clearly separated

A draft for a person to review, not a message already sent.

Founders, mentors and teams evaluating a venture.

02

Innovation intelligence

Index

See what a technology could become.

Explore a technology’s potential uses, market context and development questions, then compare where further work could be most useful.

A question you could bring

“Where could this research make a meaningful difference?”

A useful outputA structured view of use cases, supporting evidence and commercialization questions to help set priorities.

Researchers, innovation teams and institutions working with technology portfolios.

03

Conversational guidance

Arkus Venture Radar

Find a more relevant connection.

Explore companies and backers through source-linked research, then build a more focused shortlist for further investigation.

A question you could bring

“Which organizations deserve a closer look?”

A useful outputA shortlist connected to its research sources, ready for human review.

Founders and ecosystem teams researching companies, markets and potential backers.

05

Document sharing

Arkus Raise

Give your materials a clearer path.

Organize approved PDFs into a shareable experience so people can explore the materials in one place.

A question you could bring

“How do we make the next conversation easier to start?”

A useful outputA link or document room for sharing selected materials with the intended audience.

Founders and teams preparing a focused introduction or follow-up.

AI & practical digital tools

Make one real task easier.

A small, useful workflow keeps the source, the draft and the human decision connected.

Illustrative taskPreparing a workshop follow-up

A facilitator has approved notes and needs a clear recap for participants.

Start with the work the group actually did.

Keep the source, unresolved questions and agreed commitments visible before preparing a follow-up.

Approved notesOne part of the same task.

360Illustrative example

The source sheet

Discussion
The group explored barriers to joining a community learning program.
Open question
Which format would fit participants’ daily responsibilities?
Agreed action
The facilitator will prepare questions for participant conversations.

Source material stays separate from suggestions.

Organize the material without creating commitments.

AI can help prepare a recap and a clear list of questions. The draft should preserve the difference between what was agreed and what is only proposed.

A focused draftOne part of the same task.

360Illustrative example

The draft structure

Recap
Summarize the barriers and possibilities raised in the workshop.
Agreed action
Prepare questions for participant conversations.
Proposal to review
Consider testing two session formats with potential participants.

A proposed experiment is still a proposal.

Check the words against the source.

The facilitator checks the names, wording and responsibilities, and decides which suggestions belong in the follow-up.

Human reviewOne part of the same task.

360Illustrative example

The review sheet

Check
Does the recap represent what participants actually said?
Confirm
Are responsibilities recorded only where someone agreed to them?
Decide
Should the suggested format experiment be included, revised or removed?

A person decides what leaves the organization.

Make the next use easier for the team.

Keep the approved recap, the reusable guidance and the responsibility for maintaining it together. A working example should help the next person continue.

A useful handoverOne part of the same task.

360Illustrative example

The handover guide

Keep together
The approved recap and the notes behind it.
Reuse with care
The prompt, review questions and distinction between actions and proposals.
Name responsibility
Agree who prepares and reviews the next follow-up.

This example prepares a handover. It does not send a message.

AI prepares. People review and decide.
