Compute is payroll.
Run it like one.

One P&L with the AI payroll line on it, a machine behind every seat, one org chart for two kinds of colleague, and a bench that makes headcount elastic.

01Books — one P&L, no dark corners

The AI payroll line, beside the human one.

Invoices, payroll, reconciliation and tax on one set of books. Colleagues reconcile nightly inside charter; first-time payees and thresholds wait for you.

02Fleet — the machines behind the seats

One machine per colleague.

Every AI colleague runs on its own dedicated machine — health, version, temperature, spend, all first-class. A blocked agent is an infra alert and a "needs you" — same event, two readers.

03Org — one chart, two kinds of colleague

An AI VP and a human CEO, same chart.

Reporting lines, counterparts and approval gates between every seat — human and AI on one roster with the same scrutiny. Capabilities are the functional map, each owned by a named seat.

04The bench — headcount as a dial

Seats that sleep until you need them.

Pre-approved seats parked at $39/mo — identity, memory and runbooks preserved. They wake on a trigger you define and stand back down when the spike passes.
