Research for vessels of thought

Navigic studies how AI-native workspaces can carry memory, delegated action, and visible control through real work.

Research programMemory, delegation, continuity, and trust

Early work is labeled as preview or in progress until the method, limitations, and supporting materials are ready.

Program lanes

Questions that shape the lab notebook.

Trust

Visible delegation

How logs, review surfaces, and explicit approval points affect trust in agentic work.

Memory

Memory and continuity

How persistent context changes repeated knowledge work without asking people to rebuild state each session.

Human-Computer Interaction

Human oversight

How people move between planning, delegation, review, and execution when AI work remains visible.

Agent Workflows

Managed runtimes

What users need to understand about hosted workspaces, provisioning status, repair, and teardown.

    Managed runtime trust note

    Trust / Technical report

    An in-progress technical note on what hosted workspace status, repair, and teardown should make visible.

Method and trust

What qualifies as Navigic research.

Research pages are reserved for artifacts with a method, evidence, or reusable finding: field notes, design studies, evaluations, and technical reports. Claims that depend on benchmarks, customer outcomes, safety, privacy, or compliance need visible support before they are presented as findings.

Published work should include authorship, update history, limitations, and source materials when available. Questions, critique, and collaboration notes can be sent to [email protected].

From research to product

Bring one active loop aboard.

The research program informs a Mac-first workspace for continuity, delegated work, memory, and visible review.
