The problem it solves

Your team tracks approved tools and technologies in a spreadsheet, but nobody actually checks it before making a decision. When someone asks 'can we use this tool' or 'why did we pick that vendor,' you end up digging through old documents to find the answer.

Who it fits

Tech leaders, architects, and product managers who need to keep teams aligned on approved technology choices.

How it works

  1. New entries are added to a technology tracking spreadsheet
  2. The system syncs the spreadsheet into a searchable database
  3. A team member asks a question in the chat assistant
  4. AI routes the question to the right method, structured lookup or semantic search
  5. A checked, on-topic answer is returned to the person asking
What you get

Tech stack questions answered on the spot

You get instant, accurate answers to technology stack questions whenever your team needs them, without digging through spreadsheets yourself.

What you get

An AI chat assistant that answers technology and tooling questions from your own data.

What you need

A Google Sheets or Google Drive account, a MySQL database, and an AI provider API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
