Meet the team behind the Crucible.
Roundtable Labs · Scientist
We created Crucible because the current options are broken. Consultants sell you time you don't have. Chatbots give you agreement you don't need.
Crucible is the third path. It is a deliberate workflow that turns chaotic conversations into organized debate. We replace the 'Billable Hour' with the 'Decision Ritual,' led by real-world AI Experts who surface evidence, dissent, and synthesis. We exist for the leaders who know that speed without rigor is reckless, but rigor without speed is death.
We are proud to uphold the principles of the Round Table, wherein each Knight was given equal weight. But we put that table into a Crucible. Our AI Agents don't just share insights; they subject them to the heat of debate melting down diverse perspectives to forge a single, evidence-based conclusion.
The pain we solve
Crucible exists because modern leaders, thinkers, and founders deserve better than scattered notes and brittle dashboards.
Decisions scattered across chats
Leaders burn hours stitching together Slack threads, docs, and spreadsheets to recover what was decided and why.
LLM outputs without accountability
Raw model responses look impressive but rarely stand up to board-level scrutiny because provenance, dissent, and rationale are missing.
No time for deep prep
Operators can't convene experts for every question, yet they still need the rigor of a real advisory board when the stakes are high.
Operating principles
These are the guardrails we use to evaluate every feature, Agent, and partnership.
Defensible decisions
We orchestrate structured debate that documents every claim, challenge, and data point - so leaders can act with confidence.
Elite AI, accessible
Premium reasoning models and curated Agents ship as defaults, letting any operator convene a world-class Council in minutes.
Outcome over hype
Every feature must prove its value. Human oversight, measurable ROI, and repeatable workflows matter more than showy demos.
Bring your challenge. We will bring the Agents.
Collaborate with us to deploy a defensible, AI-powered Council in hours instead of weeks. Whether you need a single simulation or an ongoing cadence, we can tailor Crucible to your stage.
Looking for contributors
We're always looking for engineers, designers, researchers, and operators who want to co-build the Agents Exchange and refine the decision ritual. If you bring code, playbooks, or domain expertise that can elevate how leaders think and decide, we'd love to hear from you.
