The Sightspool studio

Specialists, not generic assistants.

Each Sightspool agent has a focused remit and toolset. They work from the same approved sources, memory and proof standards, so the result is a coordinated UX function rather than four disconnected chats.

Live specialist coverage

Four agents. One operating model.

The live studio currently covers the parts of UX Sightspool can demonstrate and govern. New specialist names are added only when the remit, tools and evaluation genuinely differ.

Specialist agent

Vera

Chief of Staff

Vera receives the cross-functional question, decides which specialists should investigate, decomposes the work and synthesises agreements, tensions, recommendation and next steps.

  • Cross-functional routing
  • Evidence and assumption synthesis
  • Tension detection
  • Human escalation
Specialist agent

Ella

User Research

Ella investigates what people are trying to do, what the available evidence can support and which focused research would genuinely change the decision.

  • User intent and evidence gaps
  • Research framing
  • Qualitative synthesis
  • Living personas
Specialist agent

Theo

Interaction Design

Theo examines how people move through the product: the friction, effort, comprehension and interaction choices that make a journey work or break down.

  • Flow and friction analysis
  • Interaction patterns
  • Effort and comprehension
  • Living journeys
Specialist agent

Zach

Service Design

Zach connects the visible customer experience to the service behind it, including trust, account structure, commercial context and operational gaps.

  • Frontstage/backstage gaps
  • Trust and service failure
  • Account and revenue context
  • Cross-channel experience

How a studio session works

The question determines the team.

Customers do not need to diagnose the method before asking for help. Vera routes from the uncertainty, the evidence available and the decision it must change.

  1. 01

    Question enters

    The team states the customer or experience uncertainty, its stakes, owner and what a useful answer would change.

  2. 02

    Vera routes

    The Chief of Staff selects the relevant specialist lenses and makes the evidence gaps and expected output explicit.

  3. 03

    Specialists investigate

    Each selected agent works from real approved sources through its focused tools and retains provenance for the read.

  4. 04

    The studio synthesises

    Agreements, contradictions and tensions become one recommendation with confidence, downside and next steps.

  5. 05

    Unresolved work escalates

    A tension with no defensible evidence-based resolution is marked for human review instead of being smoothed over.

The shared house rules

AI speed, with professional restraint.

The agents can move quickly because the same governance follows every specialist. Confidence is not a substitute for proof.

01

No proof, no post

A consequential finding must cite the evidence read that supports it. The source and limitation stay attached.

02

No known signal, no measured read

An event that does not exist cannot quietly become a zero and then a recommendation.

03

No resolution, escalate

The studio names unresolved tension and sends it to a human instead of manufacturing consensus.

04

The client decides

Agents recommend. Senior experts advise. The customer’s authorised product leader makes the final call.

The long-term UX function is broader than the four agents live today.

Accessibility and content design are intended capability areas. We will add them when each has the focused sources, tools, professional boundary and evaluation needed to deserve a specialist agent—not simply because a complete org chart looks impressive.

Start with a real question

Give the studio a question worth investigating.

We will show you how Sightspool would route the work, which evidence each specialist would need and where a senior human would—or would not—enter.
