Ask. Decide. Act. In one thread, with a receipt.
Via answers from what the tools say, not from what someone typed into a slide. It shows what the answer breaks downstream, proposes the action, and carries it out when a named human says yes.
Are we ready for the tape-out review?
8 of 10 blocks are at sign-off. USB4 is blocked, and SerDes has a gap at 1.0 V. Shall I build the readiness packet for Friday?
Yes. Include the option to defer five days.
Ask in plain words.
Three things you can say to it
- Ask
- “Where is DDR5 coverage against the date?”
- Decide
- “Pull tape-out forward two weeks. Show me the three options and their risk.”
- Act
- “Reassign the PD lead Monday and notify both VPs with the reasoning.”
One session. Four minutes.
- 09:14
“Why are samples at risk?”
The SerDes IP slipped four weeks — the vendor's email arrived at 08:51. The fabric moves 28 days. Samples are at risk by 11.
- 09:14
“Show me the recovery options.”
Three paths, each with its cost. Re-sequence the fabric timing and run in parallel: 11 days recovered. Recommended.
- 09:16
“Go with A. Draft the vendor escalation and notify both VPs.”
A named human has decided. Via does the rest.
- 09:18
Done.
Escalation drafted. Owners notified. Jira re-sequenced. The packet signed with MFA and the record anchored.
Six exchanges. Three paths. One recommendation. One human signature. Four systems updated. One receipt.
How Via stays trustworthy
Humans hold the wheel
Nothing consequential runs without a named approver.
Reasoning on every answer
The chain that led to it, not just the conclusion.
Tenant-isolated
Never trained across customers.
Everything on the ledger
Each action leaves a tamper-evident receipt.
