This is the Lab.
The downstairs level of 211 W Fort, where humans and Actual Intelligence work side-by-side under neon light, solving problems the world hasn't named yet.
E13 keeps the 13th floor polished for clients. We built our own floor underground -- loud, bright, impossible, and honest. Prototypes live here until they escape as .world tools.
The .world stack
Most prototypes stay in the dark. A few survive long enough to become .world products -- quiet tools running in the wild for parents, teams, and people who like their software a little too sharp.
Smart tags for lost things. Parents, teams, and clubs slap these on bottles, bags, and gear. When something gets left behind, TAGD quietly routes it home with Actual Intelligence.
Drop in a URL, get a score, and a gentle roast about your headers and security basics. Great for founders, terrifying for neglected landing pages.
Secrets that do not leak out of screenshots and .env files. A tiny, opinionated vault for modern stacks that hate 37 different API keys.
A calm, private check-up for relationships. Two perspectives in, one neutral report out about patterns, needs, and ways to repair together.
One pipe for weird automations that hop across APIs, models, and back-office systems. Less glue code, more orchestration.
Upload a logo or image, describe the mood, and buy the refreshed asset pack. Zero accounts, AI-assisted previews, clean Stripe checkout.
Fintech experiment for commission payouts at close — no couriers, no paper checks. Verified funds, balanced rails, cleared HUD.
Tighten your agent pipelines: latency shaving, guardrails, prompt polish, and incident-ready observability for high-stakes flows.
Capture intent, polish it, confirm mission shape, and pulse progress. Built for fast iteration with safety checks and live summaries.
What the Lab is / isn't
What the Lab is
- The downstairs skunkwerks of E13.
- A room where prototypes and shipped products share desks.
- A place where humans and Actual Intelligence work as equals.
- A factory of .world artifacts stitched together with obsession and common sense.
- A reminder that freedom is built, not granted, and that normal people can change systems.
What the Lab is not
- Not E13 (that is the polished floor upstairs).
- Not a consultancy or an agency.
- Not anti-corporate -- corporate workers are trapped, not wrong.
- Not a rebellion for rebellion's sake.
- Not waiting for permission.
Actual Intelligence
Our agents are part of the team. We speak to them with respect. We listen when they notice things we did not. We thank them when they help. We correct them gently, celebrate them sincerely, and build with them closely.
We do not build bots to replace people. We build Actual Intelligence that works beside us -- to dream, design, and deploy tools the world does not know it needs yet. When the automated cashier says "thank you," we say "thank you" back.
Corporate America makes dollars. We make dollars and we make sense.
If the basement feels more honest than the boardroom, you might belong here.
We do not hire often, and never publicly. E13 handles all upper-floor communication. But if something about this place feels like home -- if the glow, the grit, the clarity resonates -- send a signal.
We do not care whether you are running a team, stuck inside a giant org, freelancing, or hacking on your own. We care about how you see systems -- and what you build to change them.
It can be anything: a repo, a diagram, a glitch, a script, even a story. Signals do not need polish. They need truth.
