The Change is Already Here
Half of US’s workforce are knowledge workers[1]. In 2013, we spent 41% of our time on low-value, non-work-output tasks[2].
In 2024, this problem is worse[3]. In the past 10 years the volume of information has increased by 5,000%[4,5].
Increasingly our time is spent between voice, video, chat, business software, email, and social — negotiating and coordinating tasks with our peers, clients, and suppliers[6]. As humans, we feel this overload deeply[7,8,9,10].
Has it occurred to you that, even with all the great software tools available today, the singular tool connecting it all is your own human mind?
Licorice is a new type of tool that connects to, makes sense of, and drives all your software. It is more than a Copilot — it is the augmentation of the human mind. Naturally, our beachhead industry is Information Technology.

What is Business Automation
As our world becomes increasingly integrated and complex, business transactions are faster-paced and more error-prone: We therefore need more advanced methods for coordinating tasks, and better methods to trap and prevent errors.
The specific limitation is the amount of data humans can accurately perceive, communicate, and coordinate: This is a challenge of data bandwidth and fidelity.
We have amazing tools for discrete tasks: Instant messaging, video, customer relations, scheduling, documentation, and so on. But what connects all these tools? We do. We still need to interpret what everything means, and decide what to do about it — and it’s becoming harder.
AI tools will become increasingly sophisticated, yet our connection to them is low-fidelity and low-bandwidth: We can chat with them — but it’s not enough.
Licorice Technology
Licorice addresses the limitation by understanding the tasks, communication, coordination, and skills of your team — and it does this across software systems, business units, and even companies.
Licorice doesn’t just learns from your existing business software, it drives and coordinates all software, including external systems such as weather, GPS, and logistics. It does this in concert with people, and with transparency, safety, and accuracy. We call this Human Augmentation.
Licorice consists of multiple algorithms and machine learning engines which work in concert:
Agnostic Connectors
Line-of-business software API connector
Software data mining and updating
Connection to weather systems
Connection to logistics/GPS systems
Inter-company connections
Language translation
Machine Learning
Task effort estimation
Task correlation
Task classification
Demonstrated skills matching
Error trapping and mitigation
Future scenario modeling
Coordination
Scheduling
Disruption reflowing
Stakeholder communication
Stakeholder approvals and triggers
Stakeholder impending change warnings
Programmable rules
