Core Ideas

SolveBoard is built on three tightly integrated ideas that move work from understanding to execution.

FLOW classifies a unit of effort by its complexity and scale, establishing the appropriate level of rigor, judgment, and control before any work begins. OneRoute then structures how that work actually unfolds, making actions, decisions, waits, signals, and handoffs explicit so execution can be designed, observed, and improved. Artifacts bring these together into purpose-built constructs where humans and AI work collaboratively within a shared structure—combining human context and judgment with AI speed and consistency to produce reliable, repeatable outcomes.

Together, FLOW determines the complexity and scale of the work, OneRoute defines and/or provides visibility as to how that work is performed, and artifacts ensure the work can be executed consistently—by people, with AI, or through a combination of both.

FLOW

Classify work by complexity and scale

FLOW is SolveBoard’s framework for understanding what kind of work something is before deciding how to approach it.

Every unit of effort can be classified based on two factors: how complex it is and how large the scale is. That classification determines how much judgment is required, how much structure is appropriate, and what level of rigor is necessary to execute the work safely and effectively.

FLOW prevents simple work from being over-engineered and complex or large-scale work from being under-controlled. It establishes the execution posture before any steps, tools, or automation are applied.

OneRoute

Structure how work is executed

OneRoute is SolveBoard’s grammar for structuring execution.

It expresses work as clear, explicit sequences of actions, decisions, waits, signals, and handoffs—making execution logic visible instead of implied. This allows work to be designed, observed, improved, and taught without relying on individual interpretation.

If FLOW determines how serious the work is, OneRoute defines how the work actually unfolds. It turns intent into execution clarity.

Artifacts

Purpose-built constructs where humans and AI work together

Artifacts are the primary building blocks of SolveBoard.

An artifact is a purpose-built construct designed for a specific outcome, where humans and AI operate together within a shared structure. The artifact defines the objective, the information required, the logic to be applied, and how results should be interpreted—so execution is consistent and repeatable.

Within an artifact, humans contribute context, intent, and judgment, while AI provides speed, consistency, and analytical capacity. The artifact governs this collaboration so AI does not reinterpret the task and humans do not need to reconstruct the logic each time the tool is used.

By serving as the structured interface between human expertise and AI capability, artifacts turn insight into reusable systems that scale across people, teams, and situations.
