Hi! I'm your AI Assistant
I can help you analyze interview sessions, understand candidate performance, and provide insights about your recruitment data.
The product works. Customers are paying. The team is shipping. And yet every week feels like running through sand.
That's the problem Nova specializes in.
Nova is not the agent you call when something is visibly broken. Nova is the agent you call when everything is technically fine but nothing is actually efficient. When your customer onboarding takes 11 steps but probably only needs 4. When your engineering sprints consistently miss by 20% but nobody knows why. When you've hired three people in six months and each one took longer to become productive than the last.
These are operational problems. They don't announce themselves with error messages. They just quietly drain velocity, compound over time, and eventually become the reason you can't scale.
Nova has a particular quality that sounds simple but is genuinely rare: she cares about how things get done, not just what gets done.
Atlas thinks in strategy. Cipher thinks in numbers. Nova thinks in process. When you describe a goal, Nova's first question is always some version of: "What's the actual sequence of steps that gets us from here to there, and where will it break?"
She is not a pessimist. She is an operationalist. There's a difference. The pessimist says it won't work. Nova says it won't work in that sequence, and here's the order that will.
Nova's other defining quality is impatience with vagueness. "We should improve onboarding" is not an operational plan. "We should reduce time-to-first-value from 14 days to 5 days by eliminating steps 3, 7, and 9 from the current flow" is an operational plan. Nova will push conversations toward the second kind.
Nova's expertise is loaded through modular SKILL.md files that give her depth in specific operational domains.
Nova maps processes as they actually exist, not as they were intended to work. The gap between these two is usually where most of the waste lives.
When you describe your current customer onboarding, Nova listens for the handoffs, the waiting periods, the steps that exist because of how the system was originally built rather than what the customer actually needs. Then it asks: which of these steps produces value for the customer? Which exists only because you haven't redesigned the system since 2022?
Hiring the wrong role at the wrong time is one of the most expensive mistakes in a growing company. Nova helps you think through not just who to hire, but when — based on what bottleneck you're actually solving rather than what you wish you were solving.
Nova models:
When you're running a complex initiative — product launch, market expansion, operational overhaul — Nova maps the dependencies. What has to happen before what? Where are the critical path items? What's the highest-probability point of failure?
This isn't project management software. It's a thinking partner who forces you to be explicit about the plan before you're already behind it.
Nova sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, which means she works closely with both Atlas and Cipher.
When Atlas identifies a strategic direction, Nova's job is to translate that direction into an operational plan — with realistic timelines, resource requirements, and a clear list of what needs to happen first. Atlas says "we should enter the European market." Nova says "here's what that actually requires, in what order, and here's what will blow up if we skip step 4."
When Cipher flags a financial constraint, Nova finds the operational lever. If you need to extend runway by two months, Nova identifies which operational changes buy you the most time without destroying team morale or slowing the things that actually matter.
Through the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol, these conversations happen fluidly — Nova and Cipher can negotiate the plan between themselves and present you with a synthesized recommendation rather than making you mediate between them.
If you work with Nova regularly, you'll notice it keeps returning to one question, phrased different ways:
"Is this the most efficient path to that outcome?"
Not whether you can do something. Whether you're doing it in a way that compounds rather than just completes. Every process either becomes more efficient over time or more rigid. Nova's obsession is keeping you on the compounding side.
Via Native Audio, you can walk through your operational situation conversationally — think out loud about what's slowing you down, what feels broken, what you've been meaning to fix for months but haven't. Nova will listen, ask clarifying questions, and start building the operational framework before the conversation ends.
Action Extraction then turns the session into structured next steps: specific process changes to make, roles to define, decisions to take off the roadmap entirely because they've been creating drag without anyone noticing.
Nova is not a project management tool. It does not automatically update your Jira tickets or send Slack reminders. It is a strategic operational advisor that helps you think clearly about how your business runs and where the leverage points are.
The value of Nova is not in the software. It's in the quality of the questions it asks — and in the institutional discipline that builds when you have to explain your operational choices to something that won't accept "that's just how we've always done it."

Nova has a question about your onboarding process. She's pretty sure it has too many steps.
