An Agency Machine

I'm building something new

A recent study found that e-bike riders, on average, get more exercise than riders of traditional (acoustic?) bicycles.

How can that be?

By amplifying the rider’s effort, the e-bike takes its rider further, faster. The rider who goes further, faster ultimately rides more than their unassisted counterpart. Their heart, lungs, and muscles grow stronger as a result.

What if the rest of our technology worked more like an e-bike? What if our tools made you stronger and smarter while expanding your capabilities, rather than increasingly dependent on them as you atrophy? What if they took you further into new challenges, helping you test the limits of your own potential?

This is the vision I’m currently building towards—software that expands human agency. I want your most audacious goals and projects to become tractable.

I’m building to create a pedal-assist between idea and action,
an e-bike for the mind,
an ambition accelerator,
an agency machine.

I will share more in the weeks ahead, but since you’ve been on the journey with me up to this point I wanted you to know first.

I also need your help, because I believe many of you are the person I’m building for first. I’m looking for indie operators: freelancers, independent consultants, solopreneurs, early-stage founders, event planners, movers, shakers, schemers, and the like.

If this describes you, I’d like to interview you.

An hour together will help me understand how you approach your work and how this tool can expand your leverage over the challenges you face within it.

If you’re up for it, I’d be deeply grateful if you’d fill out this brief questionnaire, after which I will email you to schedule an interview if it’s a fit.

Onward,
Kasey
