Who sits

A table for a few kinds of sitting.

Athena is not a platform for everyone. If you need a feed, a dashboard, or a model that ships without you, sit somewhere else.

01

Researchers

You already have the interviews. What you lack is a brief the rest of the house will sit with. Athena weaves the sources, names the quarrel, and leaves the recommendation unsigned until you are willing to defend it.

• Keep a grove of live questions instead of a folder of transcripts nobody opens.
• A sitting produces one counsel note, not a forty-page dump.
• The seal is yours. The loom will not press it.

02

Product counsel

A roadmap is not a decision. A decision is a sentence with a name. Athena holds the sitting: what is known, what you will not pretend to know, and who is willing to sign.

• Named seats only. Shared inboxes make orphan briefs.
• Unsigned work stays a draft. There is no auto-ship.
• The Canon is short on purpose. If you need a story, the Folio keeps those.

03

Founders

The table is not a co-founder. It will not write the company. It will keep a small grove of the questions you are actually willing to sit with this month.

• Twig is enough for a first sitting.
• Grove is a table of five — still named, still slow.
• Chamber is for a house that already has doctrine.
