Question 1

What is Grey Machines?

Accepted Answer

Grey Machines is a decision intelligence platform powered by system dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation. Users describe any strategic question in natural language and receive causal loop diagrams, probability distributions, and ranked scenarios that quantify uncertainty and reveal what drives outcomes.

Question 2

How does Grey Machines work?

Accepted Answer

Grey Machines uses a multi-stage AI pipeline: question analysis and domain detection, data retrieval from connected sources, baseline extraction, system modeling to build causal loop diagrams, validation, agent identification, intervention design, lever analysis, equation generation, Monte Carlo simulation, and results aggregation with ranked scenarios and actionable insights.

Question 3

What types of decisions can Grey Machines simulate?

Accepted Answer

Grey Machines can simulate any strategic, policy, or business decision including market expansion, pricing strategy, supply chain resilience, urban policy design, investment decisions, workforce planning, energy transition, healthcare policy, and more. The platform works across any domain where feedback loops and systemic effects matter.

Question 4

What is a causal loop diagram?

Accepted Answer

A causal loop diagram (CLD) is a visual representation of how variables in a system are interconnected through feedback loops. Grey Machines automatically generates CLDs from natural language questions, identifying reinforcing loops (which amplify change) and balancing loops (which resist change). These diagrams reveal the hidden dynamics that determine whether a decision succeeds or fails.
