Start with the thing someone needs to get done.
People should not have to understand a product map, an AI model or an internal process before they can get useful help.
Powerful tools are only useful when the work still makes sense.
Fat Genie is built around a simple idea: use AI where it removes work and improves understanding, without hiding the evidence, the limits or who remains responsible.
Keep the work open to inspection.
Where evidence, judgement and AI-generated inference are different things, the product should keep them different and make important gaps visible.
Automate friction, not responsibility.
Software can organise, compare, check and prepare. Consequential choices should remain clear, attributable and under the right person’s control.
Make limits part of the product.
A trustworthy service says what it can do, what it cannot do, and when a person needs a professional, an official service or a different route.
