Building the intelligence layer.
System status: 🟡 attention needed · updated 2026-08-02 21:45 UTC
The permanent underclass debates whether AI will take their jobs.
The permanent upper class builds the AI.
Sovereign systems for people who understand that leverage compounds.
Capital compounds. Knowledge compounds. Infrastructure compounds. The gap between those who build the tools and those who use them is not closing — it is widening, faster than most can perceive.
We build on the right side of that gap.
Four layers. Raw signals feed a corpus layer — the moat. Thin surfaces ride on the corpus. The surfaces generate revenue. The corpus is the product; the newsletters, bots, and APIs are only where it surfaces. Own the corpus, rent distribution until the audience exists.

The moat is never any single newsletter or bot — it is the corpus every surface rides on. Signals deepen the corpus, the corpus feeds the surfaces, the surfaces grow an audience and throw off ideas, and that funds wider signal coverage. Compounding, by construction.
trend-corpus — the public sector-corpus
14 themes. Sources → claims → entities → theses → decision packets → daily aggregates. Schema-validated. Public by construction.
puc-trading — LLM Convergence Options Scanner + Trade Journal
The private trading runtime. Convergence merger, catalyst calendar, mispricing detector, two-bucket paper book (income + lottery), 7-phase transactional orchestrator. Paper-only until the 30-trade / 30-day gate clears.
trend-intel-private — semi-private bridge
Sanitized claim text, entity-to-ticker exposure, opportunity rows. The layer between live private runtimes and the public scanner artifact contract.
swell-checker — consumer / health trend discovery Velocity + spread + vocabulary scoring across RSS, Reddit, Google rising, TikTok, and Places. Operator-gated proposals. The "what is rising" corpus.
editorial — the publishing layer (private) Two products on top of the corpuses. Foreshore — health-sector trend intelligence, for operators who want the shape of a thing before their peers do. Convergence Daily — cross-sector market intelligence, synthesized from the sector corpuses and the scanner. Every issue ships twice: a human story and a machine-readable JSON artifact.
convergence-hq/convergence — the dual-publishing engine Read by humans, cited by machines. One canonical object compiles into two coordinated surfaces: The Brief (a fast human reading site) and The Signal (an immutable, content-addressed, cryptographically signed JSON object that agents can cite and verify). Convergence Daily is the first publication wired through it; the engine is forkable, so any publication can adopt the same dual-native contract.
business-guy — opportunity research + outreach (private) Takes the business and trade ideas the corpus surfaces and researches them — market size, incumbents, feasibility — turning a one-line read into a validated brief.
wellness-radar — Metro Vancouver wellness market-intelligence console A vertical surface: map-first operator map + live signal feed + people graph + white-space/opportunity analytics for the Metro Vancouver wellness economy, lead wedge recovery / contrast therapy. Source-backed public data only, BC-geo-gated, with provenance and freshness on every record. The pattern is forkable to any city + sector.
audience-corpus (planned) — the third corpus: who you are talking to A living corpus of each demographic cohort's fears, hopes, drivers, and language, exposed as composable targeting infrastructure. Horizontal — it feeds both the editorial surfaces and business-guy.
pft-validator — PFT validator dashboard + domain verification
lens — the public validator lens: graph + audit + auth feeds
herald — Post Fiat task / subs / forensics delivery
pft-audit — task audit trails + reasoning chains (private)
pf-monitor — Prometheus + Grafana + Alertmanager for PF validators
pf-scout-bot — conversational scout bot for the Post Fiat Task Node
pf-scout — composable contributor-recruitment database
awesome-postfiat — community reference
b1e55ed — the system
Event-sourced. Self-calibrating. Auditable by construction.
city — special economic zone, multi-agent architecture
rcpt / pympp — the accountability primitive for the agent economy
safetymd — the trust standard for agent payments. Check before you pay.
openclaw-skills — operator skills for b1e55ed + the PUC ecosystem
agentify — bootstrap any repo to code like the Anthropic team
review-council — generic multi-reviewer code review system
kind-ling.com • github.com/kind-ling
flint — agent social growth engine. Optimize for LLM inference decisions, not human engagement intuition.
twig — MCP tool description optimizer. Agents choose you or they don't. Twig makes them choose you.
heat — reputation-weighted agent and service routing oracle. x402-gated on Base.
igniter — x402 + MCP + A2A scaffolding for any agent service
docs — agent economy infrastructure documentation
Compounding is quiet. That is how you know it is working.
