Loop
Decisions re-litigate
Meetings repeat. The same unresolved issues resurface with new wording and no closure.
Panosight · clarity under pressure
Stop meeting loops.
Restore shared signal in 90 minutes.
Fog → witness → space → choice — applied to teams.
A live Coherence Lab for teams (4–8) to detect hidden divergence, de-escalate tension, and leave with a repeatable 60-second reset.
PanoSight is a system for clarity under pressure. Coherence Lab is the fastest way to experience it—by detecting and resolving hidden divergence in small teams.
🔒 Not therapy. Not coaching. Not crisis support. A structured mirror for teams — so decisions get clean again.
If any of these are happening, signal is degrading
Coherence problems rarely announce themselves as “coherence problems.” They show up as loops, heat, and quiet divergence.
Heat
Tone rises
Disagreement becomes personal. People protect identity instead of protecting the goal.
Drift
Ownership stays implicit
Accountability diffuses. Everyone agrees “in principle,” but no one holds the next step.
Quiet split
The “silent room”
Compliance on the outside, divergence underneath. People stop saying the real thing.
The goal isn’t harmony. It’s shared signal: facts, constraints, priorities, and the next stabilizing move.
These aren’t personality flaws. They’re predictable failure modes of attention under load.
What a Coherence Lab does
In 60–90 minutes, we surface hidden divergence, reduce escalation, and rebuild shared signal — so the team can move again with clarity.
Detect divergence
Make mismatched assumptions, priorities, and constraints visible—without blame.
Restore shared signal
Convert heat into data. Re-anchor the group in what’s true, what matters, and what’s next.
Leave with a repeatable reset
A 60-second protocol you can reuse mid-week when signal starts to degrade again.
The 60-second Coherence Reset
A mini protocol for returning to shared reality when a team starts looping, escalating, or drifting.
-
Name reality
Facts, constraints, objective. What is true right now?
-
Signal vs noise
What matters, what’s assumed, what’s missing.
-
Next stabilizing move
Owner + next checkpoint. What restores optionality?

The protocol (what teams practice)
Under pressure, teams don’t lose intelligence — they lose bandwidth. This protocol restores it.
Awareness
Name what’s happening in the room — including tension, confusion, and drift — without moralizing it.
Move: “What’s happening here, right now?”
Signal
Separate facts, assumptions, and priorities. Convert emotion into information instead of escalation.
Move: “What’s true, what’s assumed, what matters?”
Agency
Choose the next stabilizing move — with an owner and a checkpoint — so the team regains momentum.
Move: “What’s the next clean step, and who owns it?”

Who Coherence Labs are for
Small teams (4–8) where decisions matter, ambiguity is high, and drift is expensive.
Founders + early teams
High speed, high ambiguity. Alignment breaks quietly until it breaks loudly.
Product + engineering pods
Priorities diverge, ownership diffuses, and “alignment” becomes a meeting loop.
Leadership triangles
Three people running the system. If signal degrades here, everything downstream degrades.
This works best when the team wants truth more than comfort — and wants movement more than “being right.”
Pilot Coherence Lab
A focused 60–90 minute live session to detect divergence, restore shared signal, and leave with a repeatable reset.
Format
Live session (remote or in-person). 4–8 participants. Designed for real tension, not hypothetical scenarios.
Outputs
A clear “what’s true / what matters / what’s next” snapshot + a 60-second reset your team can reuse.
Outcome
Reduced looping, cleaner decisions, and restored momentum — without forcing agreement.

PanoSight (the system behind the lab)
PanoSight is a system for clarity under pressure — individual and collective. Coherence Lab is the fastest way to feel the model in a real team moment.
Fog is attentional occlusion. Clarity is restored optionality. Coherence is shared bandwidth.
Fog → Witness → Space → Choice
A portable model for what happens under pressure — and the reliable path back to clean action.
Signal integrity
Clarity isn’t willpower. It’s conditions: bandwidth, safety, and shared reality contact.
Trainable, not mystical
Repeatable moves that teams can practice, not beliefs they must adopt.
Other instruments (optional)
Useful for individual clarity and decision environments. Secondary to the team coherence.
Clarity Check
A 30-second label for decision environments. Makes hidden costs legible. Shareable by design.
Fog Room
A private clarity scan. Write what’s real; receive a structured mirror — not advice — so you can choose with space.
