The philosophy
Every shop has people who just know things. The press operator who can tell by the sound whether registration is drifting. The separator who knows exactly how many screens a job actually needs.
That knowledge lives in people's heads. It's learned over years, passed down informally, and almost never written down. When those people leave — and they always leave — the knowledge goes with them.
Tribal knowledge codified is what happens when you take that knowledge and build it into the tools and systems your shop runs on. That's what we're building at Ink Kitchen AI.
