Independent AI software studio
Useful tools. Ambitious systems.
A place to see what happens when we build them.
Built by Chris Macri. Developed in the open.
01 / The tools
Open a product. See an example. Decide whether it belongs in your workflow.
Recorded example · Deliberately broken test page
Step-by-step browser reports for a defined public website flow.
Explore App CheckInteractive quizzes about decisions and confidence.
Open OmniCore ↗ (opens a new tab)02 / A closer look
App Check records what the browser observed against the clicks and expectations you defined. A result comes with its steps and a screenshot.
Compare three sample reports ↗The supplied expectations were observed.
An expected result was missed.
The browser could not obtain enough evidence.
Recorded examples are available now. Free checks on your own site are being prepared.
03 / Beyond a single tool
Longer experiments in prediction and decision-making. Explore the thinking behind them.
A prediction runtime built to preserve predictions, resolve outcomes and measure performance. Models and domain adapters plug into the core.
The runtime and the predictive model are different pieces. Building the runtime does not establish predictive performance. This is a development project, with no public product access here.
An exploration of decision quality under uncertainty. Evidence, risk, timing and context are part of the question.
EdgeMind remains an early project. The artwork expresses its direction; it is not evidence of a finished decision engine or an available service.
04 / The civilization experiment
Civilization 001 explores agents operating over time. Civ Studio is the companion production workspace for turning stories into sourced scripts and video.
Agents, tools and decisions across an ongoing operating loop.
Evidence capture, script review and video production in a local application.
These are ongoing projects. Civ Studio’s social publishing integrations currently simulate delivery.
05 / The workbench
Compare two reviews against an evidence packet. Keep the final decision in human hands.
Local prototypeExplore bounded AI work with explicit permissions and checks.
Explore the design ↗A private operating view for tracking capital and understanding what changed.
Private workspaceAn earlier idea-verdict project. A possible next experiment in making the process self-service.
Parked / under consideration06 / How we build
Public tools, local prototypes and experiments have different labels.
A result should point back to what happened, including what could not be verified.
The goal is software people can put to work. Each experiment has to earn its next step.
07 / Field notes
Short notes from the studio. The useful parts, including the unfinished ones.
Vector Core’s new public home brings the tools and experiments together. App Check’s recorded reports are open without a ChatGPT account.
Explore the examples ↗The difficult part is connecting the idea to a usable result. That means testing the handoffs as well as the individual pieces.
How we approach it ↑The civilization and studio projects are generating material for a possible book. That is an idea in development, with no release date.
Inside the experiment ↑08 / Behind Vector Core
Built by Chris Macri.
Vector Core is the home for my software and AI experiments. Some are small tools. Others ask bigger questions about prediction, judgment and autonomous systems.
The aim is to put them to work, learn from the result, and share what is worth keeping.
Find your starting point ↑09 / Before you explore
Each project states its availability. App Check has public recorded examples; OmniCore has its own website. The other projects shown here are in development, local or private.
No. This website and App Check’s example reports are public and open without sign-in.
Customer-site checks are being prepared. Today you can compare recorded working, broken and unobservable examples. Pricing has not been set for the public version.
It is an independent studio and the home for several projects. Individual products can have their own websites, access and terms.
