Candor AI Is Live — Kirk's 30 Years of Advisory Experience, On Demand.

Candor AI is live. This is a tool we built for Candor Advisors that gives founders access to Kirk Michie's advisory thinking on demand.

Kirk has spent 30 years advising founders on deals, equity, and growth decisions. That expertise is real and hard-won. The challenge is that Kirk can only take so many calls. Candor AI extends his reach.

The tool was built using recordings and transcriptions of Kirk's actual advisory sessions. We used that material to train and prompt a model that reflects how Kirk thinks — how he frames problems, what questions he asks, and how he structures his recommendations.

This is not a generic chatbot. Founders who interact with Candor AI are getting something close to Kirk's actual reasoning process. The tool knows what Kirk would push back on, what he would want to understand first, and how he would frame the answer.

For Candor Advisors, this is a way to scale the most valuable thing the business has: Kirk's expertise. The full case study walks through how we built it.
