      <p class=\"mission-body-para reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:160ms\">
        Every AI tool you use today resets when you close the tab. It doesn&#39;t know you tomorrow. It doesn&#39;t remember what mattered yesterday. It can&#39;t grow with you over years.
      </p>
      <p class=\"mission-body-para reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:240ms\">
        I built Neuron because intelligence should compound. The same way a great mentor gets more valuable the longer you work with them - knowing your context, your patterns, your goals - your AI should too.
      </p>
      <p class=\"mission-body-para mission-body-emphasis reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:320ms\">
        Neuron is private by design. It runs on your hardware. <strong>Your data never leaves your machine.</strong> No training on your data. No telemetry. No cloud dependency.
      </p>
      <p class=\"mission-body-para reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:400ms\">
        This isn&#39;t a chat interface. It&#39;s the AI that becomes yours.

      <p class=\"mission-bigtech-label\">Why I built this on my own</p>
      <p>
        I didn&#39;t just approach one of the largest technology companies in the world - I got the meeting. Got the NDAs signed. Created deliverables in real time. Showed them benchmarks with full auditability. Some of their own people understood immediately what it meant.
      </p>
      <p>
        They saw it. Seemed to engage meaningfully. Then, within two days, lawyers were involved. I decided to just finish the project on my own.
      </p>
      <p class=\"muted\">
        Not: how do we solve this at scale? Not: what does this mean for the people we serve? Their instinct was to protect enterprise revenue and manage legal exposure. The actual human impact - the people whose lives those enterprises touch - didn&#39;t enter the conversation.
      </p>
      <p class=\"muted\">
        That&#39;s the difference. <strong style=\"color:var(--t1)\">They&#39;re optimizing for the enterprise. I&#39;m building for the people those enterprises are supposed to serve.</strong>
      </p>
      <p>
        I told them I could build and distribute this by myself. Maybe they didn&#39;t believe me. That meeting was April 22nd, 2026. I&#39;m writing this on April 25th. You&#39;re looking at the proof. <a href=\"/checkout?plan=founding\">I hope you&#39;ll preorder it.</a>

      <div class=\"problems-grid\">
        <div class=\"problem-item reveal\">
          <p class=\"problem-label\">Synthetic media without accountability</p>
          <p class=\"problem-body\">Generative AI makes it trivially easy to produce harmful content at scale - and nearly impossible to trace. This is a problem the industry is largely ignoring. I&#39;m not. I&#39;m engaged with it seriously and expect to have answers in place before it becomes unmanageable.</p>
        </div>
        <div class=\"problem-item reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:120ms\">
          <p class=\"problem-label\">Epistemic collapse</p>
          <p class=\"problem-body\">AI can now generate persuasive content at any volume, on any position. The next generation is growing up in an environment where signal and noise are becoming indistinguishable. I think deeply about what it means to build tools that contribute to that problem - and how to build ones that don&#39;t.</p>
        </div>
        <div class=\"problem-item reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:240ms\">
          <p class=\"problem-label\">Concentration of inference</p>
          <p class=\"problem-body\">Four companies control nearly all frontier AI inference. Every query strengthens their position. I think that concentration of power is a structural risk - not just a pricing problem - and I&#39;m building with that in mind.</p>
        </div>
        <div class=\"problem-item reveal\" style=\"transition-delay:360ms\">
          <p class=\"problem-label\">The accountability gap</p>
          <p class=\"problem-body\">When an AI agent takes a bad action, there is currently no clear legal or technical accountability. That&#39;s going to matter more as agents do more. I take this seriously. I&#39;m building toward answers - not waiting for regulators to force the question.</p>

      <div class=\"mission-closer reveal\">
        <p>The industry built tools to make AI easier to use. <span>I&#39;m building tools to make it safer to trust.</span></p>
      </div>

      <div class=\"reveal\" style=\"max-width:44rem;margin-top:3.5rem;padding:2rem 2.5rem;border-left:3px solid rgba(0,82,160,.30);background:rgba(0,82,160,.02)\">
        <p style=\"font-family:var(--body);font-weight:500;font-size:1rem;color:var(--t1);margin-bottom:1rem\">Nobody&#39;s perfect.</p>
        <p style=\"font-family:var(--body);font-weight:300;font-size:0.9375rem;color:var(--t2);line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:1rem\">Neuron isn&#39;t either. There is a gap between what the AI industry is delivering and what the world actually needs. Bridging that gap is the work - not a one-time product release, but continuous work, done in the open, built on the trust that users place in it.</p>
        <p style=\"font-family:var(--body);font-weight:400;font-size:0.9375rem;color:var(--navy);line-height:1.6\">That&#39;s my commitment. To keep working. To be honest about the problems. To build something that earns trust by doing the hard things right.</p>
