What Deskworth is for

A research desk for one person, built so that every figure keeps its trail and no agent can quietly widen its reach.

Deskworth is a desktop application that turns the model subscriptions you already pay for into a research desk with named mandates. It is local-first, it holds no key of yours, and it does not resell you a model.

#The three commitments

#Why named roles rather than one assistant

Not because a specialist model is smarter, but because a mandate is a written limit and a limit is what makes a wrong answer visible. A role that may read filings and may not reach the open web cannot substitute a blog post for a 10-K. A role that owns the workbook format is the only one that can produce one.

LimitThere is no team page here, no customer list and no adoption figure, there is nothing to show, and inventing any of it would contradict everything above.
