Product decision support for healthcare, AI, and regulated teams.
Kanav Jain
I help teams decide what to ship, what to pause, who owns the next move, and how to recover when the system is wrong.
How the method formed
The pattern across the work: make the real operating pressure visible, name the decision owner, and leave a record people can use after the meeting ends.
That shows up in shipped healthcare workflows, open-source provenance tooling, and advisory work for teams under regulatory or trust pressure.
Building now
NextConsensus
NextConsensus helps coverage, formulary, and market-access teams review disputed healthcare claims before decisions lock in. Each brief focuses on one claim, one decision window, and the source-backed reasons to challenge, defend, or re-review.
Active venture
Refract
Refract turns public revision history into structured event streams. It shows what changed, when, where, and with what source trail before anyone adds interpretation.
Active open-source infrastructure
Whether
A lab for turning macro signals into practical operating posture: what to tighten, what to loosen, and what would change the call.
Concept & technical scoping
Open-source and labs
Small, inspectable projects around provenance, publishing systems, decision artifacts, and sensory interfaces.

- Operating posture lab Whether Macro signal translation into bounded decisions and weekly artifacts.
- Archive BREAD FM Public archive for the BREAD music collective and its event history.
- Publishing stack The Crumple Zone Field writing on systems, burden, neurodivergence, and institutional repair.
Systems research & field notes
Frameworks for building systems teams can diagnose and repair. From Ethotechnics to production policy design — these are the working methods for making system behavior traceable and fixable under real-world pressure.
