Finding patterns in spectra
Our Enveda CASMI exploration starts with a question: what can the fragments of a molecule tell us about its structure?
WELCOME TO NERDSTY
Learning as we go.
We build things, explore ideas, ask questions,
and see where curiosity takes us.

An agent for the phone calls
Can an AI assistant help schedule or cancel appointments? We're exploring how that could work.

This project is on the drawing board. We're thinking through the conversation flow, confirmation steps, and the connections an assistant would need to make a useful call.
