Your business, in a few true numbers.
Ipso turns how your operation actually runs into a live model that proves its own arithmetic on screen, shows every lever you can pull, and ends every finding in one of nine decisions. Not a dashboard — a model you can argue with.
Free. No card. About twenty minutes with what you already know about your operation.
Meridian Distribution is synthetic — its figures are illustrative and describe no real organisation.
Every figure proves itself.
Ipso keeps only the true numbers — rates, capacities, times — and derives everything else at the moment you look. Every view prints its own balance line, reconciling to zero. Nothing is stored, so nothing can drift.
The yield cascade’s own proof line, from the synthetic sample.
Every finding is a decision.
A view that ends in a number is unfinished. Each analysis ends in one of nine verbs, with its reason written in a sentence — so a findings meeting ends in decisions, not more slides.
Every number says how sure it is.
Six grades of evidence on every parameter, from placeholder to observed. The package tells you what is proven and what is still assumed — and re-derives the moment an observation arrives.
A package, not a report.
One file that runs anywhere, offline, and derives everything itself — hosted in your Ipso workspace and yours to keep. Four screens:
Views
Your operation drawn thirteen ways — where it loses work, which limit binds first, where the room is, where work waits between people — plus the nine universal instruments that teach the method on your own numbers. Every view has live levers; pull one and the picture and its proof re-derive together.
Findings
The package as it lands in a findings meeting: every analysis under the decision it ends in, with the sentence that carries it. Click any finding to open its view; the reasons travel with it.
Evidence
Every number with who said it, the document it came from and its grade. Record an observation — what, how, by whom — and every view that consumes it re-derives. The sketch lists exactly what a sprint would observe, and from where.
Method
The method in plain language, and a self-check that runs in your own browser every time the package opens: every view rendered, every balance closed, no currency anywhere, a live lever on every view. You hold the proof, not a promise of it.
Pour more in, and only the queue grows.
The hourglass draws your constraint to scale: the neck’s width is its rate. Push more work at it and Ipso shows, with the arithmetic, that nothing more comes out — the pile grows and every wait lengthens. It rejects the most natural growth move in the business, on screen, until the neck is wider.
That is what a model that can disagree with you is for.

A sketch of your business
Answer a guided brief about your journey, your limits and your systems. Ipso draws your package at sketch grade — every number honest about being an assumption.
Free. Or a facilitated Studio session, R15 000, credited to a Sprint.
Three weeks to evidence
Fixed fee, fixed scope. Your data comes in through the Intake Room with a receipt for every file; we build, read the disagreements and issue the verbs with written reasons.
R85 000 per company, including a year of Ipso Live.
Your numbers, kept true
Record observations as they arrive; every view re-derives. Add quarterly re-snaps and we re-read your verbs as the business moves.
From R3 950 a month per company.
Every company, one board
For private-equity holders and their delivery partners: every portfolio company’s verbs on one verdict board, tiered by threshold, never by rank.
R2 950 a month per company.
Anywhere something moves through stages and is lost or delayed.

Your numbers stay yours.
Ipso stores parameters and decisions — never derived figures. Every upload gets a receipt. No AI runs inside the product. The package runs offline, in your hands.
How we handle information- Receipts, not promises. Every file you upload gets a receipt: what was received, what was extracted and at which grade, what left your workspace, what was discarded.
- Derived, never stored. We store parameters and decisions. Every figure you see is computed in your browser, from your parameters, when you look.
- No AI at runtime. Your package does its own arithmetic. Where we use AI to read documents in a sprint, the standard says which tool, on which terms, and what persists.
- POPIA by design. Hosted in the EU under data-processing agreements; South-African-resident hosting on request.
