Today we launched pactresearch.net — a home for PACT and the research network growing around it.
PACT started as a personal tool. I needed a way to do structured AI research — not chat, not copy-pasting between tabs, but something that treated prompts and responses as permanent, addressable artifacts that could be chained together into a reasoning ledger.
Three Medium articles later, a beta tester (Marc, an ER physician), an 84-page medication interaction analysis, and a VSCode extension with SQLite backing — PACT has become something worth giving a proper home.
What this site is
pactresearch.net is the public face of Pact Research LLC. It describes what PACT does, links to the published articles, and provides a place for researchers and domain experts to request beta access.
This blog will carry shorter notes — observations from using PACT for research, updates on features in development, and ideas that don't yet warrant a full Medium article.
What comes next
- Parameterized prompt templates — fill in your medication list once, run the full interaction chain automatically
- Cross-notebook cell references — reference research from one domain in another
- Collaborative notebooks — share
.pactfiles with research partners who continue exactly where you left off
If you are a researcher, physician, or domain expert interested in using structured AI reasoning for your work — reach out. The network is small and the tool is still rough around the edges, but the concept is sound and the early results are genuinely useful.
Chat disappears. Research shouldn't.
