Big market. Good luck with that. How will it be hosted? Who will implement it?

Would you follow the Red Hat business model? https://gemini.google.com/share/2825b8ff67d6

Part open / part paid closed-source? Fully open and charge on consulting/customization?

How will you stop LLMs from recreating it?

Hosted on premise for enterprise, VPC for mid market customers. For enterprise customers, FDE model makes most sense for a product like this and they would assist with implementation and training. For mid market customers, I'm still exploring options to make it cost effective.

For domain-specific optimization, the value is in the solver integrations, specific constraints that form the seed, and the modular simulation that powers the visuals. The software is monetized, not the services around it.

> How will you stop LLMs from recreating it? Having worked this space for a while now I think there are two ways to ensure reliability (the real moat here), first is going deep into five-six problems that are complex enough that out of box solutions/simple prompting don't work well. Second, tightly coupling a simulator to provide rapid feedback that actually helps change manage and solve the "people" problem when optimizing operations.


Sounds interesting. Are you not going to use the .ai domain? I also like asco.1 and asc.oo

Anyhow, is the scope centered around intra-firm supply chains? What happens if you have one firm suggesting to one of their partners to use the service... can you provide additional features if they work on the same platform? Perhaps they could agree on information to share with each other? Maybe you could have crypto payments tied in somewhere for inter-trade and eventually working toward a Logimodel marketplace - but I presume that's not really in the vision.

Anyway, best of luck with it.


Thank you for your kind words! Your marketplace idea definitely sounds interesting to me, if not for payments, it would definitely provide a way to improve visibility through easier data exchange due to a common platform.
