How Crift works.

Two proprietary capabilities, in order: it learns your field, then it maps the path to your goal. The second only impresses once the first lands.

How it works · it learns your field

Expertise, before the first question.

Before a single question is asked, Crift builds itself into a genuine expert on your field — through three pipelines that run in sequence and hand off to each other.

Tier one

Discover the field

The engine researches the domain on its own and surfaces what matters — the moving parts, the forces, the failure modes a practitioner knows are in play. It doesn't wait to be fed documents; it finds the shape of the field, then enriches each finding into a defined, scored piece of knowledge.

Tier two

Connect the field

It discovers how those pieces relate — including the non-obvious links an expert sees and an outsider misses. This is the step that turns a pile of facts into a knowledge graph: a web where everything that touches everything else is wired together.

Tier three

Make it recallable

Finally it organizes the learned field so the exact right knowledge surfaces at the exact right moment, when a real problem comes in. Crift calls each living model of a field a namespace — and it shows up to your problem already expert.

How it works · it maps the path

Not an answer — a map you can trust.

Hand it a goal and it returns a full, auditable map of the way through — every step traceable to what it learned, every gap named as its own item you can act on.

The Lode

The spine — the route from where you are to the goal. The word means a path in Old English; the product is named for what it does.

Crests

The forces working in your favor — the things that move the path forward.

Rifts

The obstacles, the contradictions, the risks working against you. Crift surfaces these instead of hiding them — and names every gap as its own item you can act on.

The arc

From unshaped objective to executable plan.

01
Intake

Capture

The unshaped objective enters, however it arrives.

A deal memo, a matter, a goal stated in a sentence. No schema required up front — Crift takes ambiguity as its input, not its obstacle. app.intake → app.project

02
Decompose

Descent

The engine resolves the objective into a Lode tree.

Probabilistic decomposition descends the problem seam by seam, breadth-first through bands — generate, critique, select — branching into nodes a human can reason about. 8 node types · 6 operator families

03
Ground

Anchor

Every node is tied to evidence before it stands.

The knowledge graph and RAG substrate anchor each conclusion to source. Nothing in the tree is asserted without a trace back to where it came from. kg.* · rag.* grounding

04
Ratify

Command

You survey the structure and stamp it.

The dry-run gate puts the entire proposed tree in front of you before anything commits. You approve, revise, or reject — the machine never moves without your seal. dry_run → ratify

05
Playbook

Execute

The ratified tree re-projects as a sequenced workplan.

What you approved becomes an executable playbook — owners, order, dependencies — without re-authoring a thing. Reasoning and execution share one source of truth. playbook projection

One foundation, two faces

The system that keeps the work. The engine that thinks through it.

Crift wears two faces over one core — a configurable system of record your business runs on, and a reasoning engine that maps the way through any problem inside it. Same foundation, same governance, same data.

Questions, answered.

How does Crift learn a field?

Through a three-tier ingest: it discovers the field, connects it into a knowledge graph, and organizes it for recall — building itself into an expert before the first question, in a fraction of the time a person would take.

What is a Lode tree?

The reasoning map: a spine of propositions (the Lode), with Crests (helping forces) and Rifts (risks) along it — each node grounded in evidence and ratified before anything commits.
