Model in the loop
The brief
What was actually broken
The work was disappearing into chat threads. Citations were screenshots. Export was copy-paste. The model owned the notes; the researcher did not.
How it shipped
The work, in order
- 01
Documents, not threads
The unit of work is a note you can name, version, and export — not a scrollback.
- 02
Citations as structure
Sources sit beside the claim. If you cannot point at it, it does not belong in the notebook.
- 03
The model is a tool
Draft, extract, compare — then write it back into a document the human still owns.
If you cannot export the work, the model owned it — not you.
What changed
After it left the repo
- — Researchers leave with a file, not a chat transcript.
- — Citations survive the export.
- — The model can be swapped without losing the notebook.

Same product, other angles
