I know many folks who work in medicine and have to use Epic and my outside (caveat! limited!) impression is of the technological dark age it feels like hospitals / medical workers are in is astonishing to me as someone in tech. It's not just Epic, but it is in large part Epic.

There's also so much bureaucracy and red tape which to an extent makes sense (this is an area you'd expect to be cautious of new technology or solutions) but also tradition / provider lock-in seems to be really holding the space back.

OpenEvidence seems to be maybe the one more modern solution that's breaking through for now.

If you click on the image there's a view with the colors intensified and I believe it's the red portion but it is pretty abstract-looking, at least at this time.

> "It’s okay to fall in love with the company you’re building, but don’t deny yourself the ability to get closure and move on just because the company itself hasn’t yet experienced an exit or ending."

This note at the end feels like something many founders might grapple with at one point or another, especially if it's not a rocketship or clearly going to become one.

Neat experiment! I wish I'd read that my comment was going to be public before immediately typing (whoops, but a minor whoops). Maybe update the UI to have that shown earlier?

But also clearly user error on my end to just type away and not read first, so that's on me.

I haven’t tried them yet. Someone I know also founded The Insights Company, which seems to be in a similar space.

For now, I still think it’s valuable to be as close to the research as possible. When I’m in the conversation, I can notice a pause, a reaction, or a facial expression and ask a follow-up right then. I’m wary of handing that part of discovery to AI, especially when it still struggles to understand and tease out what people actually mean. I’d rather keep building that skill myself for now. I also think the effort of sourcing discovery conversations can be beneficial in terms of learning about / finding your best channels.

That said, if the alternative is not talking to customers at all, I’d imagine one of these tools is probably better than nothing.

Thanks for the kind words and feedback! Cool that you're building in this space as well.

This is super neat, and not something I'd thought of attempting yet. Thanks for sharing the results, and the thoughtful and well-caveated take on the future of frameworks.
