The question

Small, specialised brains

What we built

The first body was a communication app for children who cannot rely on speech (AAC). Its brain was a store of conversation trees, running offline on cheap tablets.

What it proved

Peel began with augmentative and alternative communication.

What it added to the brain

• Memory and map

Why it matters for defense

The first users could not afford a wrong answer or a dead connection. Offline, small and specialised is the same brief a squad gives a machine.
