People often assume products like this are easy wins. They’re not. Neurnav is slow to build, slightly irrational, and powered by obsession. It’s mostly just me (and a few friends) caring way too much about document diffs, version history, and where text actually comes from. From the outside, it probably looks like a bad idea. From the inside, it’s genuinely fun. I didn’t build Neurnav to chase numbers. I built it because I love experimenting and making tools that feel right. 😈

Because “Did you use AI?” is the wrong question
Okay.
So your entire evaluation system falls apart because you can’t verify authorship?
✅ That’s not an AI problem.
❌ That’s YOUR problem.

What really pisses me off 😤
They act like:
…is some kind of axiom.
Calculator ≠ “you don’t understand math”
Compiler ≠ “you don’t understand code”
So why is AI different?

🔥 The real question isn’t “did you use AI?”
It’s:
Can you explain your reasoning?
Can you defend your work?
Do you understand what you submitted?

🧠 So I built Neurnav
Every edit — human or AI — gets tracked with Git-level provenance.
You can see exactly who changed what, when, and why.

Why?
I was already doing this with local Git repos for my own sanity…
…but constantly creating repos and pushing to GitHub was painful.
So I wrapped Git into a product that non-technical people can actually use.

🧰 Tech stack
Next.js 15
One Git repo per document
Branching/merging UI
Provenance metadata in every commit

If your institution is still having braindead “AI yes or no” debates,
maybe transparency is the actual answer.
