ARK Platform
ARK is the platform that powers everything Thoth Intelligence builds. It runs the consulting. It captures the expertise. It stores and compounds the skills library. Three tiers, from fully local to full-platform — each designed so every engagement makes the next one sharper.
What ARK is
The platform is the AI infrastructure that powers every MbM consulting engagement. It's not a wrapper around a chatbot — it's a multi-pass reasoning system (polyspheric AI architecture) with purpose-built tooling for strategic work.
The skills library is where captured expertise lives. Every engagement generates reusable capability that future engagements can draw on. The library grows with every sprint MbM delivers.
The revenue model is how expertise holders share in the upside. When a specialist's captured skill is used by a future engagement, the original contributor earns a share of the revenue. Preservation, not extraction.
Platform tiers
Every tier runs the same polyspheric AI architecture. The difference is where the computation happens and how frontier models are accessed.
Fully local. Zero ongoing cost.
A minimalist, fully local AI system. No cloud dependency. No subscription. Privacy by architecture. Your AI runs on your hardware, with our SLA backing it.
One-time setup + optional SLA
Local-first. Frontier on demand.
A local-first AI system that handles all daily work on-premises, with the option to reach out to frontier models (Claude, GPT, etc.) via API when a task demands it. You control when and whether cloud models are invoked.
Setup + monthly API budget (pay-as-you-go)
Full platform. Frontier-native.
The full ARK platform, connected to your organization's AI subscription of choice. Interaction happens through Claude Cowork and the Heart of Gold cockpit — a personalized control center optimized for each function (sales, leadership, marketing, operations). No API management needed; we integrate with your existing AI provider.
Monthly subscription per seat
Skills library
Traditional consulting lets the expertise walk out the door when the engagement ends. ARK captures it as structured, reusable capability inside the platform. The next customer benefits from what came before. The original specialist keeps sharing in the upside.
During a MbM engagement, the specialist expertise applied to the work is captured as structured capability on the ARK platform — frameworks, decision trees, validated methods, domain-specific tooling.
Every captured skill passes through Thoth's polyspheric validation — stress-tested from multiple angles before it enters the reusable library. Quality is the threshold, not volume.
Future engagements draw on the library. The MCP server infrastructure distributes skills to the right engagement at the right time. Each use generates revenue share for the original contributor.
Revenue sharing
Traditional consulting agencies keep 70–80% and pay the expert 20–30%. ARK inverts this. When a specialist's captured skill generates engagement revenue, the specialist keeps 60–80% of the skill-attributed fee. Thoth retains the platform margin.
The revenue share is ongoing. Every time a captured capability is used by a future engagement — whether the original specialist is actively involved or not — they earn. It's a royalty model for expertise, not a one-time payment.
The workflow: MbM delivers an engagement → specialist expertise is captured on ARK → skill enters the validated library → future engagements draw on the skill via MCP server → revenue attributed to the skill → specialist receives their share. Tracked, transparent, automatic.
Get started
As a client: start a consulting engagement through MarS by Mercury. Every MbM engagement runs on the ARK platform.
As a specialist: if you hold rare expertise that AI can't replicate, get in touch. We're building the skills library now and looking for domain experts who want fair compensation and ongoing upside.
