Field notes
The page organizes the pitch into a platform stack, recursive-improvement loop, research program, and benchmark table. Named components include HopPlanner, MashOrchestrator, YeastWhisperer, TasteJudge, and a fermentation retrieval system; the copy punctures their supposed sophistication with details such as relying mostly on a thermometer. It also says the benchmarks are self-reported and judged by TasteJudge, while noting that the judge cannot taste and the Trappist monk was not consulted.
