The Infrastructure
Judgment is exercised constantly.
It is almost never preserved.
Institutions are increasingly required to justify decisions long after they are made.
Today, those justifications rely on memory, notes, and reconstruction.
Ary exists to change that.
Ary produces a decision artifact.
Not a score.
Not a recommendation.
Not an outcome.
A structured, immutable record of:
- what was said
- what was considered
- what constraints were acknowledged
- what uncertainty existed
- what was absent
This artifact is the unit of value.
Over time, these artifacts accumulate into an institutional database of judgment.
This database:
- is evidence-anchored
- is queryable
- is versioned
- is auditable
- cannot be reconstructed later
This is the infrastructure.
Everything else — interfaces, analysis, governance — sits on top of it.
Ary enforces a small number of non-negotiable invariants:
- No scoring
- No prediction
- No recommendation
- No inference beyond evidence
- Absence is first-class
- Deterministic compilation
- Immutable provenance
These constraints are not limitations.
They are what make the system defensible.
Ary does not:
- decide who should be chosen
- certify correctness
- replace legal or regulatory eligibility
- optimize outcomes
Ary preserves judgment as it occurred.
As institutions adopt faster, more complex, AI-assisted workflows,
the gap between decision-making and defensibility is widening.
Accountability is not the opposite of progress.
It is the prerequisite for scale.
Ary is built to be the foundation all other "smart" systems can be accountable to.
