Open Issues
Long-running concerns. Weeks and months, not minutes.
Most AI forgets the moment you close the chat. Ayven maintains persistent organizational concerns—monitoring market changes, tracking strategic questions, improving processes continuously. Issues that matter don't disappear after one conversation.
Monitor competitor pricing
Issue Types
Different concerns need different handling. Ayven categorizes and executes appropriately:
- Monitoring — Track competitors, markets, or technologies over time
- Recurring Review — Weekly standups, monthly reports, quarterly planning
- Strategic Question — Big decisions that need ongoing research
- Knowledge Gap — Areas where the team needs to build understanding
- Continuous Improvement — Process refinement cycles
- Iterative Project — Multi-phase initiatives that evolve over months
- Compliance Cycle — Regulatory requirements and governance rhythms
- Maintenance Routine — Regular upkeep tasks that need tracking
Research vs Documentation Balance
Each issue has a bias toward gathering information or persisting it. Ayven adapts its behavior:
Confidence-Based Execution
Ayven knows when it's sure and when it's not. Behavior changes accordingly:
- High confidence — Share findings directly, create public docs
- Medium confidence — Propose actions, request approval first
- Low confidence — Draft only, keep private, ask questions
Human Input When Needed
When Ayven gets stuck or needs direction, it doesn't spin. It asks:
- Blockers detected — Issue pauses, notifies you
- Question routed — Specific request sent via Slack
- Response captured — Your answer feeds back into the issue
- Work resumes — Automatically continues with new context

Issues that persist. Knowledge that compounds.
Stop losing context between conversations.
