Movem

Something that helps you work out what to build next.

We do not know yet whether it is even software.

Movem is the one thing here we will not call a product, because we have not decided what it is. The problem is real enough and we have had it ourselves. You get stuck on what to build next, you ask a machine, and it hands back ideas that belong to nobody. We think the answer is closer to reading the position someone is already standing in than to generating something out of nowhere. What that turns into is open. It might not be software at all.

What we can actually say

Movem has a job and no form. Somebody is stuck on what to build next. They use it. They come out unstuck, and the thing that unstuck them came out of the position they were already standing in rather than off a list of ideas that belong to nobody.

That is the whole of it. We have built things while trying to find its shape and none of them were it. One of those attempts turned sideways into Feel, which is also on this page.

We are not going to describe Movem as an app, because we do not know that it is one. When we know what it is, this page will say so.

  1. Whether it is software, an instrument, or a physical object
  2. How you read someone's position without making them fill in a form
  3. What it hands back: a prompt, a picture, an argument
  4. Whether you use it alone or with the people you build with
  5. Whether it is a product at all, or just how we work internally

Building something and stuck on what comes next?
