Front Deck

Building context-aware agents with better knowledge and memory capabilities

We build context-aware systems with durable memory, stable state transitions, and governance-first operation. The front-facing experience stays playful and readable, while the systems layer feels like a space-race control deck.

Static-first surface Reduced motion defaults High-contrast signal UI

Power Profile

Lean visual primitives, no heavy runtime animations, and clear hierarchy for fast scan speed.

Memory Profile

State and context are treated as product layers, not hidden behavior.

Operator Profile

Arcade cues for users, mission-control semantics for teams and agents.

System Pressure

Challenges at Scale

Persistence. Statefulness. Context.

As systems expand, short sessions become long-running loops. Memory must survive retries, context must stay coherent across tools, and state transitions must remain safe under parallel execution.

Failure Points

The Bottlenecks

These are the zones where production context systems usually break first.

Knowledge Tooling

  • Most tooling is prompt-first and session-bound.
  • Retrieval, evaluation, and state mutation are often disconnected.
  • Observability is weak when teams need memory audits.
  • Tooling must function as a control plane for autonomous operators.

Knowledge Bases

  • Most databases are designed for human admins first.
  • Maintenance often assumes broad privileged access.
  • Agentic operators need policy-scoped permissions by default.
  • Machine-managed knowledge ops need purpose-built data layers.

Knowledge Agents

  • Continuity fails across handoffs and long workflows.
  • State changes are often implicit and hard to recover.
  • Memory updates lack governance and rollback controls.
  • Production agents require explicit state and recovery semantics.

Playable Builds

Top Use Cases

These RFP concepts map directly to the bottlenecks above, and they are scoped for fast, low-energy pilot delivery. Interested parties can contact us at ping@knowb.run.

Featured RFP 01

Subtracktor

Subscription Escape Inbox Agents Financial Leakage

Auto-billing design patterns make software subscriptions hard to notice, compare, and cancel. This RFP explores agentic tooling that finds recurring charges and acts with user-approved scope.

Connect an email inbox, identify subscription trails, map cancellation routes through APIs and MCP servers where available, and prepare proactive cancellation or downgrade actions for review.

Outcome: inbox-based leakage audit, cancellation workflow map, and policy-scoped action agent.

Featured RFP 02

ShadowCaster

Platform Visibility Moderation Policy Event Amplification

Investigate how LinkedIn and Instagram content policies affect reach, moderation, and event visibility for artists, creators, and community workers, especially in marginalized communities.

Build toolkits for ethical event representation that respect platform rules while improving the chance that the underlying message reaches its intended audience.

Outcome: compliant publishing patterns, visibility diagnostics, and responsible amplification playbooks.

RFP 01

Underminer

Extract semantic understanding from paywalled reporting and reconstruct the story from alternate sources plus LLM context-tracing experiments.

Outcome: evidence-linked narrative reconstruction with source traceability.

RFP 02

X-Poser

Submit an X link, run claim checks, and generate a report that marks the post as true, uncertain, or fabricated, with export-ready output for sharing on X.

Starter example: knowb-ai/x-poser.git, a small public build showing how short sessions and builder events can accelerate RFP prototypes.

Outcome: compact fact-check report with evidence confidence notes.

RFP 03

Precongnition

Detect missing or mismatched conference talks, tutorials, or demos, then crawl for alternate watch links and nearest neighboring sessions.

Outcome: continuity-preserving discovery graph for learning resources.

Launch Plan

Delivery Roadmap

The rollout starts with lightweight RFP pilots, then moves into governed link-collection systems for proprietary dataset growth and efficient long-run operation.

Phase 1

RFP Projects

  • Ship simple, testable prototypes with clear outcomes.
  • Validate retrieval quality, context tracking, and report utility.
  • Define stable agent contracts and data boundaries.
  • Interested parties can contact us at ping@knowb.run.

Phase 2

Link Collection Systems

  • Deploy selected use cases as policy-scoped link collectors.
  • Grow proprietary datasets for retrieval and verification loops.
  • Apply GDPR-focused controls through Terms and Privacy policies.

Collaboration Callout

Contact us to build with us

We are actively looking for partners who want to ship practical context-agent systems in controlled pilots. The current collaboration formats are listed below.

  • RFP build partners to prototype Underminer, X-Poser, Precongnition, ShadowCaster, and Subtracktor with measurable delivery milestones.
  • Knowledge and dataset partners who can support governed link-collection workflows and source validation loops.
  • Operations and compliance collaborators who can help productionize policy-scoped memory and retrieval systems.
