A New Dawn
for an Old World

A workflow. A discovery. A gift.
Two producers used AI to find AI — and built a new way to work together in the process.
The story ↓

While engineering the audiobook for Grammy-winning producer Robert Margouleff, we discovered something we didn’t expect.

Not just a problem to solve — but a new model for how producers, engineers, and creative teams can share intelligence, make decisions, and work transparently in the age of AI.

This is not a product. It’s a workflow — and we’re giving it away.

The Project

“Shaping Sounds”
by Robert Margouleff with Jim Reilly
Foreword by Mark Mothersbaugh · Jawbone Press · May 19, 2026
Audiobook by Pushkin Industries

Stevie Wonder. DEVO. The Synth Revolution. The memoir of the man who built TONTO and helped create some of the greatest albums in music history.

During production, we were asked to audit the audiobook for AI-generated content under SAG-AFTRA compliance. What we built to do that — a system of linked documents, highlighted scripts, and triangulated source material — became something bigger than we anticipated.

Full case study coming soon.
