Docket
About

Built because the measurement was missing, not the writing.

There is no shortage of software that writes an article. There is very little that can tell you whether the article was worth writing, and almost none that will admit when it does not know.

Why this exists

Two things changed at once, and most tools noticed neither.

The first is that generating text stopped being the constraint. When drafting a competent article takes a minute, the bottleneck moves entirely to deciding which article, and almost every tool in this category is still built around the part that got easy.

The second is that a growing share of buying decisions now happens inside an answer, with no click and no referral. A business can lose a customer to a competitor named by an assistant and have nothing in any report to show it happened.

Docket is built around those two: decide what to write from evidence, and measure the surface nobody can currently see. The writing sits in the middle because it has to, not because it is the interesting part.

It is built by Cyberdunes, and operated by Docket Ltd..

How decisions get made

Four rules that have cost us features.

These are not values on a wall. Each one has been the reason something was removed or never shipped, and the removals are named on the product pages.

01

A number with nothing behind it is worse than no number

Somebody acts on a confident dashboard. If the confidence was unearned, the action was wrong and nobody finds out for a quarter. So every figure in Docket says what it rests on, and a figure resting on too little is capped and labelled rather than presented as a finding.

02

Say what it cannot do, on the page selling it

Every product page here has a limits section, and it is a required part of the template rather than an optional one. A page that cannot name a single thing its subject does not do was not written by somebody who understands it, and buyers can tell.

03

Refuse rather than fabricate

The reputation feature will not run on a model without web access, because such a model asked for reviews invents them. The visibility screen shows a setup checklist rather than a worked example. In both cases refusing is the harder product decision and the only defensible one.

04

Deterministic where it can be

The 52-point checklist is rules, not a model's opinion, so the same article always scores the same. Two editors comparing a draft are comparing the draft. A score that moves when nothing moved is a score people learn to ignore.

Where we actually are

Early, and saying so.

Docket is a young product. Billing is not switched on, so the prices on the pricing page are illustrative and every route goes to a conversation rather than a checkout. There are no customer logos on this site because there are no customers who have agreed to appear on it, and the testimonials that exist are marked as placeholders wherever they are shown.

We could hide all of that. Plenty of sites do, and it works until the first procurement questionnaire. The alternative is to be a young product that is straight with you, which is a better thing to buy from than an established one that is not.

If you want to know exactly what is and is not finished, ask. You will get a real answer.
