Stage three
One site, one dashboard, and di machine wey dey run di whole thing
Di written description go turn to three real surfaces: one website for castomUI, one operating dashboard for dash-b, and di workflows for castomFLOW wey dey do di real work. No be mockup — na three products wey you fit open, edit and switch off.
Dem build dis three from di same document, at di same time, by three systems wey dem design to sit for di same shelf. Dat one matter pass how e sound: di labels for di dashboard match di words for di site because both come out from di same paragraph, no be because somebody remember to keep dem in step.
Everything wey dey below go open for im own editor after. castoMIND assemble di first version; e no own am, no lock am, and e no require you to come back through castoMIND before you fit change heading.
Three surfaces
Wetin dem go build, and which part of di family go build am
Di website — castomUI
Pages, copy, brand, publish for one address. Dem write di copy from di description, so di site argue di same case wey di document argue, no be di one wey template assume.
Di dashboard — dash-b
Di board wey dem dey run di product from, dem arrange am from day one. dash-b na live dashboard designer wey sabi speak 86 languages and e fill imself from di platform wey dey under.
Di workflows — castomFLOW
Di steps wey really dey run am: di order wey turn to invoice, di reminder for day three, di nightly reconciliation. Deterministic where determinism good, AI where judgement really dey needed.
Na here di folder stop to dey empty.
Di dashboard dey exist before di first customer sef
Dis one na di unusual one, and na deliberate. Most new products go get dia measurement like four months after, when somebody finally ask wetin di repeat rate be and nobody fit talk. By dat time di first four months don lost — di data no dey collected at all, because nowhere dey collect am.
To stand di board up on day one na minutes e cost, and e mean say di first month go get numbers inside. And na exactly dat month im numbers go decide whether second month go dey.
Small heresy: di dashboard dey more useful pass di website for week one. Di website na for di customers wey you no get yet. Di dashboard na how you go find out why you no get dem.
- 1Site structurePages wey dem choose from wetin di description imply. Price page dey because price dey.
- 2Copy wey dem writeFrom di written case, for di brand voice, for di languages wey you ask for.
- 3Pictures demRoyalty-free, from di platform media library, licence and attribution dey attach to di file.
- 4Board wey dem arrangeDi four or five numbers wey dis kind of product dey live or die by. No be forty.
- 5Workflows don buildEvery step wey di description imply say somebody for do by hand.
- ·Den you open demThree editors, three normal products. Nothing dey generated-and-frozen.
One description dey behind all threeEverything dey editable after
Wetin di workflows really cover
Di description talk wetin di product dey do, and most of wetin product dey do na repetitive work wey somebody for do by hand for nine in di morning. Dem turn to workflows: order turn to invoice; signup get welcome and follow-up for day three; supplier order dem split am, send am and chase am; monthly report assemble imself on di first.
castomFLOW make sure say e no put model on every step, and castoMIND inherit dat discipline. Reconciliation no need judgement, e need di same thing to happen di same way every time. Steps wey really need judgement — classify dis message, draft dat reply, choose between three options — na dem get one, and na only dem dem go charge for.
Di result na machine wey you fit read. When something spoil for month two, run log dey with di branch wey e take and di values wey decide am, no be just shrug and theory wey sound like e make sense.
Wetin dey under all three
All three sit on castomAPI, na why none of dem need anything wey dem buy from outside. Di site images come from royalty-free library wey dey search eleven providers and e keep di licence attached. Address and country fields dem validate am against 34.8 million rows of real reference data. Di workflows fit send e-mail, SMS or push, collect payment, offer booking slot or mint short link, using di same account wey sign in at di start.
None of dat one na integration wey anybody go set up, and none of am get key to rotate. Na di floor wey di whole family stand on.
