From customer input to operating product

The Factory Manager turns onboarding into the canonical product specification, then specialist agents move approved work through architecture, development, GitHub, Vercel, QA, launch and operations.

Factory Manager

AI Product Synthesis

This station converts the entire onboarding record into the canonical work order consumed by architecture, development, GitHub delivery, deployment and QA.

Generate Architecture

Turn discovery into a build system.

The Factory converts the saved intake into structured roles, screens, data entities, workflows, automations, integrations, security controls, MVP scope and build sequence.

Economics gate

Who pays, when do we get paid, and is it worth building?

Every Factory project carries its own revenue, cost, margin and break-even model. Estimates can start rough and become actuals as the product matures.

1. Get paid early

2. Recurring revenue

3. Investment

4. Monthly cost to operate

5. Customer value

6. Capital decision

Factory economic ruleDo not graduate infrastructure or expand scope merely because we can build it. Require a customer, measurable internal value, validated demand, or a deliberate strategic investment.
