The Quill tells lost stories - the human moments history skipped over, across wars, eras, and lives. The stories are about the people, not the history.
My Lost Chapters is the exception - Chris on camera, telling a true story from his own life. No research, no script, no narration.
The Little Feather tells original stories inspired by Pokémon - gentle stories about self-love, emotional regulation, boundaries, leadership, and gratitude.
Two ex-Microsoft builders.
One real AI lesson.
Live every Wednesday.
Echo is the agent. Chris Shanku and Sash Mohapatra are the humans. Every Wednesday, Chris and Sash spend 25 minutes live-demoing real AI tools from their own systems. You see what works and what breaks. Echo does the rest. That's Human in the Loop.
