← All three paths For your team

Build shared canon from the team you already have.

For two people or many who need shared working context. Team Setup can begin from leadership’s existing understanding of the people, work, systems, and access already in place. Team Setup works without Business Control, with optional Business Engineer help.

Shared team operation is a developing offering. Start with a pilot discussion to establish the scope and controls required for your team.

The team can be the starting point.

Leadership can begin by defining the team’s existing identities, responsibilities, shared work, sources, and authority. Every participant still establishes or reuses a Personal Canon, but they do not have to rediscover the organization from scratch before shared setup begins. Team operation connects those personal foundations to shared Canon through defined roles and enforced access, while private personal context stays bounded.

Your personal foundation.
Connected to shared Canon.

Every teammate has the same foundation: direction from the user, working memory in their agents, and long-term understanding in their Personal Canon. Team operation adds shared Canon for the work you do together.

Shared CanonTeam memory
Each teammate keeps this personal foundation and connects to shared records through their role.
You — direction and decisions
You are the decision-maker: the person with the ambition, the problems, and the need for help. You initiate the work, explain what matters, and make the decisions that guide it.
Your agents — working memory
Each agent holds short-lived working memory for the immediate task. This is where reasoning, direct work, and authorized actions take place, guided by your request and the context retrieved from the Canon.
Your Personal Canon — long-term memory
The Canon retains the context, evidence, decisions, relationships, current state, and unresolved questions that need to carry forward. Both you and your agents should understand it, so the next conversation can build on what is already established.
Shared Canon — the team’s long-term memory
The shared layer holds common goals, responsibilities, project state, decisions, and evidence. You and your agents work with those records through defined roles and access. Shared work has one authoritative home; your personal context links to it so everyone can build on the same understanding.

Maintain both layers together.

Each teammate provides direction, decisions, and corrections. Their agents should proactively maintain their Personal Canon and the shared records they are authorized to update as work happens. Leadership defines responsibilities and organizational authority; questions and discrepancies go to the right decision-maker.

Private personal context stays bounded. Shared progress and decisions belong in the shared Canon, with verified updates, so another authorized teammate can ask what needs doing and pick up from the current state.

What the first steps look like.

A useful first outcome: an agreed initial team, clear responsibilities and access, and a supported shared workflow to validate together.

  1. Establish the shared starting scope.

    Choose the initial team and workflow. Start from leadership’s existing understanding of who is involved, what work already exists, which systems matter, and who has authority to define the shared scope.

  2. Establish identities, personal foundations, and boundaries.

    Reuse or create each participant’s Personal Canon while defining responsibilities, permitted information and actions, exclusions, and escalation. A dispatcher’s access may be very different from a bookkeeper’s.

  3. Set up a scoped shared pilot.

    Translate the agreed roles into supported access and action controls. Confirm the boundaries before inviting the team into the shared space.

  4. Work together and keep it current.

    Use the documented team structure. Agents maintain each person’s foundation and authorized shared records, bringing discrepancies to the right decision owner. Add Business Control separately if you want its economic model.

A question worth asking.

Illustrative scenario, not a live result. The answer depends on the sources established for your scope, their freshness, and your permissions. Missing evidence stays visible.

See what your Canon understands.
Control where it goes next.

Team Setup works on its own. Add Business Control when you want to map and manage the business through the economic model below. Business Control is the visual representation of your business Canon — a dashboard maintained and updated through your agent or agents.

A business Canon can begin from existing records, owner knowledge, operating systems, or connected personal and team context. As that understanding grows, its structure, decisions, dependencies, priorities, and current state become increasingly dynamic. At that point, understanding the whole business through prompts alone becomes difficult.

Business Control gives that understanding a place to live visually.

Instead of asking your agent to reconstruct the state of the business every time you need context, you can see the Canon’s current understanding: what is known, what is changing, what remains unresolved, where the business is heading, and what needs attention next.

Your agents continue to work through the Canon. Business Control turns that work into an understandable operating view — giving you a quick place to understand your business, then use your agents to investigate, decide, change, and act.

The Canonis the understanding.

Your agentswork with that understanding.

Business Controllets you see and direct it.

A clearer business.
A more confident owner.

A good budget gives you room to breathe: you know where you stand and what your choices mean. ForwardCanon applies that discipline to the whole business—demand, resources, decisions, and results.

  1. Demand

    What do customers pay for, and which revenue streams bring money into your business?

    Map the revenue streams behind actual customer purchases.
  2. Supply

    What people, resources, costs, and capacity support that demand?

    Understand the operating commitments.
  3. Supply Optimization

    What should change to create a healthier, sustainable business?

    Compare configurations, risks, and expected results.
  4. Profit Management

    How should proven profit protect and strengthen the business?

    Build resilience, longevity, and future opportunity.

This is how we work toward business health.

Business Control and shared business operation follow these four layers.
Projected improvements carry assumptions and supported uncertainty. Actual results validate them.
Profit Management begins with demonstrated surplus. The model keeps evolving as reality changes.

Business Control is being developed through real implementations. The view depends on the sources, freshness, and permissions established for your business.

Start from what is already authoritative.

Begin at the scope where you want help and establish the authoritative reality already there. Participating people establish or reuse Personal Canon; business and team Canon can also be discovered from existing systems, evidence, shared work, and leadership knowledge. Add or reduce capabilities as your needs change. Business Control adds the four-layer economic model, Team Setup can work independently of it, and optional Business Engineer help is available at any stage. Individual use is $15 per seat/month. Shared Canon adds $50 per workspace/month on top of seats. Self-managed Business Control is $299 per business/month plus seats. Business Engineer support is $1,000/month, with a separately estimated setup fee and an agreed monthly time allowance.

Your agent helps
you get established.

Begin with yourself, your team, or your business. Your first conversation finds the right scope from what you want to accomplish and what is already authoritative.

The planned free trial includes guided setup and useful first work. Trial duration and usage limits will be published before activation.

  1. Create your account.

    Set up your email and password, then verify your mobile phone number by text message. Two-step verification is required. Your account page is also where you manage connections and billing.

  2. Talk it through with your agent.

    Explain your goals and bring existing sources. Your agent helps establish identity, responsibilities, roles, and authority. Ask questions about the system as you go.

  3. Review your first Canon.

    Check the understanding together, correct it, and initialize your first canonical state. Unanswered questions stay visible.

  4. Put it to work.

    Use the trial to experience maintained context. Documentation and resources are available from every repository, and your agent helps you understand and use them.

Choose how much
you want to take on.

Start through conversation. Add Business Control when you want the business model, and an engineer when you want help establishing and maintaining it.
