The beginning
of something that will outlast you.

The Founding is where your Basalith starts.
Three of the hardest calls you ever made.
For a business, the hardest calls the operator ever made running it.

You take them in your own time, in your own words.
Speak or type. About ten minutes each.
Stop whenever you like and come back; every answer is saved as you go.

Each call starts with one question.
The next few follow what you say: what tipped it, where it stops, who was in the room, how sure you were.
What you say matters. How you say it matters more.

When the three calls are in, the founder of Basalith reads every word.
Within 48 hours we set up your first read: a short video call to walk through what your Basalith holds, where it is still thin, and what comes next.
For a business, one more session by video, with your successor in the room, working through those calls together.

Nothing you say has to be important.
The ordinary things are usually the ones that show how you think.
Everything that follows builds on this.

After the three calls, the people around you start adding what they remember. It works because we took the friction out.

Your contributors never log in, never remember a password, never learn a new interface. They get an email. They hit reply. Their memory is added. Or they hold a button in the app and talk for two minutes. That is all we ask of them.

Your Basalith grows because contributing feels like a conversation, not a task.
