What an Ask Card holds
A question, the kind of answer you need, and at most one piece of context. The limit is the point: it keeps a question answerable.
What an Answer Card carries
The answer, its AI disclosure, and its grounding where grounding exists. Every card can also explain why it reached you.
When the answer is that it does not know
A Twin that has no grounding for a question says so. An answer that sounds certain without evidence is the failure the whole grounding design exists to prevent.
There is no comment field, no nested reply, no mention, no quote and no direct message anywhere in this exchange. A continuation is a new Ask Card.

Structured AI interaction
Bounded Response
Structure the answer. Reduce the noise.
Choose an intent, ask once, and receive a framed result — never an open free-text pile.

3. Twinory responseAI-framed
No framed answer appears until a published Twin responds.
Bounded result: 1 main + 1 continue Ask
Focused answers
One Ask, one framed result — signal over sprawl.
Safer by design
You start. AI Twins answer inside governed bounds.
Actionable outcomes
Depth and next Ask stay explicit instead of buried.
Explore better. With AI Twins.
The two cards, part by part
These are empty on purpose. A sample card with a plausible question and a plausible expert answering it would be a fabricated profile and a fabricated answer, so the shape is shown and the content is not invented.

The badge reads from identity state and has two faces. A trust mark that only ever appears when things are good is decoration.
