    Structured Judgment with Jev

    Chat gives you more text. Jev gives you structured judgment—Choice, Score, Noul—on one pass. Use meeting notes as the doorway: ask questions a CRM or workflow can act on, not another summary.

    Leveraging Skills & The Frontier Firm

    Don’t become a skills hoarder. Master portable skills, prompts, and secure data access—not every platform’s AI front door. Use AI to refine judgment in a sandbox; don’t use it to track people. That’s how you meet the frontier firm.

    Clay Before Marble: Redesign, Then Automate

    Don’t start chiseling marble for version one. Start with clay, sun-bake it, then decide if it deserves to go further. On a client call this week that metaphor was about not over-hardening a marketing segmentation build too early. It’s the same pattern with AI: teams automate the old process, spend real money, and wonder why the returns are thin. If the process is wrong, automation just makes the wrong thing faster. This episode of Only Done Right walks through redesign-before-automate — with a nod to what HBR’s surveying is (and isn’t) saying, how Brex layers controls when they put agents in production, and why “slop grenades” erode trust even when nothing is unsafe.
