🔬 Experimental Projects

Comprendo Labs

Where we explore new ideas, test bold solutions, and build experimental tools that push the boundaries of what AI can do for real human problems.

What Are Comprendo Labs?

Labs are our playground for innovation—side projects and experiments that explore emerging needs, test new markets, and showcase what's possible when we combine AI with real-world challenges. Some labs become products, some remain experiments, and some teach us valuable lessons that shape our core work. They're all built with the same pragmatic approach: identify a real problem, build fast, learn from use, and iterate.

Beta - Accepting pilots

Signals

Signals monitors the inputs that matter to your mission — funding trends, policy shifts, sector chatter — and delivers synthesized intelligence before it becomes common knowledge. Built for organizations that need to stay ahead, not catch up.

Why We Built This
Mission-driven orgs rarely have a dedicated intel function. Signals is that function — lightweight, focused, and built around the questions your team is already asking.

Live Demo

Surface

Surface builds a structured, queryable picture of any field — who the key players are, how they're connected, what funders are signaling, where the tensions are, and where the white space is. Not a report. A knowledge base you can interrogate as the landscape shifts.

Why We Built This
Strategists spend 4–6 weeks constructing a picture of a field before making any moves. We kept seeing that the real value wasn't in gathering the information — it was in the analytic layer on top.

School Board AI Fluency Course

A comprehensive online training program designed to help school board members and education leaders develop practical AI literacy and make informed decisions about AI adoption in their districts.

Why We Built This
School leaders are facing pressure to adopt AI, but many lack the foundational understanding needed to govern effectively. We created this course to bridge that gap and empower boards to lead with confidence.

ListenTwice icon
In Development

ListenTwice

An AI-powered interview agent that helps organizations and governments characterize individual needs at scale — turning thousands of spoken conversations into a single, actionable source of truth for policy and product design.

Why We Built This
Most digital initiatives fail because they don't account for ground-level reality. Traditional surveys have low engagement and lack nuance. ListenTwice conducts empathetic, multilingual voice interviews at infinite scale — it doesn't just collect data, it hears the "why."

Case Study

Knowledge Assistant Platform

A customizable AI chat platform that turns dense document collections into conversational, sourced answers — deployed across school districts, curriculum providers, and enrollment systems.

Why We Built This
Organizations sit on valuable knowledge locked inside documents that are hard to navigate. We build assistants that make any document collection instantly searchable through natural conversation, with source citations and multilingual support.

Reel Records icon
Beta - Accepting Pilots

Reel Records

An iOS app for fly fishing guides and anglers that transforms spoken trip reflections into structured fishing reports. Capture conditions, catches, and stories through simple audio recordings—automatically transcribed and organized.

Why We Built This
Fishing guides need to document trips for clients and shops, but writing detailed reports takes time away from the water. We're testing if voice-based logging can preserve the experience while creating valuable records with minimal friction.

Actionable Inbox icon

Actionable Inbox

A daily email digest that organized school communications—from teachers, PTSA, sports teams, and more—into a single, actionable summary with deadlines, events, and important updates for busy parents.

Why We Built This
Parents of K-12 students are overwhelmed by fragmented school communications. We tested whether AI could bring order to the chaos by automatically surfacing what matters most. While we've archived this experiment, the learnings informed our approach to knowledge management and information prioritization.

This project has been archived but the learnings continue to inform our work.

Curious About a Lab?

Whether you want to collaborate, pilot a beta, or just learn more about what we're building, we'd love to hear from you. Labs are experiments—but they're experiments that benefit from real feedback and real users.
