Each product listens, reads or watches something on the user's behalf and turns it into a decision. The cognitive layer is the part in between: the understanding. They are the factory's own output: what we sell as method, we ship as product first.
live
Radio from the whole planet, in your menu bar and in your pocket.
A world radio player with a map, favourites that survive catalogue changes, and a curated station catalogue with programme schedules. Its cognitive layer turns listening into learning: vocabulary, sessions and goals sit next to the stations. The name comes from skywave propagation, the ionospheric bounce that lets a signal from Tokyo reach Lisbon. macOS and Android are live. iOS is in review.
pilot
Audio intelligence for radio.
Continuous listening to the broadcast, turned into quota compliance reports, proof of airplay and market intelligence. The cognitive layer is the listening itself: recognising speech, music and language on the live signal, hour after hour. Built for regulators, rights societies and stations, starting with regional languages that mainstream speech recognition ignores. Piloting in Europe.
private pilot
A legal companion that lives inside your coding agent.
While the project is being born, Ulpiano reads the repository and flags trademark, privacy, licence and tax issues, records each risk next to the code, and calls a real lawyer when it is time. Reading code the way a lawyer reads a file is its cognitive layer. It suggests. It never issues a legal opinion.
Earlier work, from audio series to financial literacy programmes, lives in the archive.
