How IQ256 works
You define what matters and what we are authorized to do.
Delegate a defined piece of work, such as an analysis, prepared documents or code. IQ256 takes responsibility for completing and checking the agreed work within the boundaries you approve.
Straightforward, familiar tasks may be easier to handle with your own team or AI. IQ256 is useful when investigation, specialist input or coordination would pull attention from other priorities.
A short, non-confidential message.
Tell us what you want to achieve, how you will use the work and your timing. Name an output or preferred service if you know it; otherwise, we can suggest them. You do not need a finished brief or fixed budget.
We normally reply by email within 2–48 hours. Start and delivery times are confirmed separately. Sending a request does not authorize a charge, and no subscription is required.
The agreed work, delivered by email.
You receive the agreed analysis, documents, code or other output through the email conversation. The delivery record explains what was completed, the evidence and checks, limitations, and any next actions you retain.
Illustrative commercial and product example
Question: Does this €1.8m project fit the product?
Delivered: A review of the trade-offs, clear negotiation conditions and a prepared reply.
Why: One large contract should not turn your product into a custom project for one customer.
Next use: Enter the discussion with clear conditions and prepared wording. The customer decides what to accept and send.
Fictional example. The €1.8m is the fictional contract value, not the IQ256 fee. This is a commercial and product review, not legal contract advice. The complete sample pack illustrates an agreed scope; it is not a package entitlement.
Agree what useful completion means.
Before paid work starts, we agree:
- The goal, scope, deliverables, completion checks and deadline.
- The total payable price including any applicable taxes, payment terms and any budget ceiling.
- Information-sharing boundaries, authority, and the information or decisions we need from you.
IQ256 handles the agreed internal steps. Material changes to scope, budget, timing, sharing boundaries or effort from your team return to the appropriate person for approval.
Give each part of the work only what it needs.
Original confidential material remains separate. A purpose-specific packet is the part of the brief shared with a particular contributor. It preserves relevant context while withholding unnecessary identifying or sensitive details.
You approve what can be shared before new people, models or providers receive it. Sanitizing or translating material can reduce risk, but cannot remove every possibility of identification.
Coordinate the work within the agreed boundaries.
You provide the purpose, relevant context and authority. IQ256 selects, briefs, coordinates and pays contributors as needed for the agreed assignment. You do not need to manage individual contributors or approve each internal step within the mandate.
AI and human contributions are chosen for the assignment.
AI-only assignments do not include human specialist input. Where human contributions are agreed, the quote states each role and its extent, and the delivery explains what it addressed. Contributions can include advice, research, implementation or testing.
Create focused task packets
Give each contributor enough context to help while limiting unnecessary disclosure.
Translate without flattening context
Adapt language and technical framing while preserving relevant geographical and cultural details.
Choose and coordinate contributors
Select AI, research or people with relevant experience or original thinking. Brief contributors, arrange terms and payment, and follow up on gaps.
Follow the evidence
Identify missing information, clarify, branch, stop unnecessary work, investigate disagreement, check findings and adapt within agreed constraints.
You choose how much to delegate.
A review, prepared proposal or tested tool can each be a complete assignment when that is the agreed output. IQ256 completes the agreed work and its baseline checks, and explains material limitations. You may separately request extra scrutiny for specified concerns; focused specialist input does not mean every claim has been independently verified.
A recommendation can name the preferred option without taking your decision. You may retain a business decision or authorize IQ256 to make it within explicit limits.
Choosing an option, contacting someone, committing money, deploying software and sharing information each need their own agreed permission. A budget ceiling alone does not authorize spending.
Supplier example
Ask us to compare suppliers, recommend one and prepare a reply. You can keep the final selection and decide what to send, or authorize us to select against your criteria. Permission to contact a supplier or commit money is agreed separately.
Software example
For a produced tool, IQ256 can implement the agreed requirements and document its checks and limits while you retain deployment approval.
See what each expert contributed.
Your integrated delivery. For assignments involving contributing experts, the delivery includes an expert-contributions appendix or companion document, with scope and layout agreed for the task. IQ256 integrates useful input into the main delivery; you do not need to reconcile separate responses.
What each entry records. Each entry uses an assignment-specific label and a short capability description stating relevant experience in broad terms. Broad descriptions and edited wording help protect identity but cannot guarantee anonymity. Each entry records the contribution's scope, insight or objection, basis, limits and how IQ256 used it. These are edited professional summaries, not verbatim quotations.
The contributor's own check. Before delivery, each contributing expert checks that their edited summary and broad capability description accurately represent their contribution and experience, and flags identifying details. This bounded check is included in the agreed contribution scope. Editing preserves substantive disagreement, the seriousness of objections and uncertainty. The check concerns their contribution, not endorsement of the whole report.
Fictional example: a business is considering a full switch from its current supplier to a new business tool. These invented contributions show how specialist input could change the recommendation; no supplier assessment or migration took place.
Data-migration practitioner with business-system experience
Scope: Assess whether the proposed switch has a credible exit route.
Contribution: In this fictional assignment, records, attachments and their relationships must survive a later exit. An export promise alone does not establish that. Keep the current system until a representative export can be inspected against those requirements.
Basis and limit: A technical objection to the fictional proposal. No software was accessed, export tested or recovery demonstrated.
Operations manager experienced in introducing business tools
Scope: Assess the customer's workload and continuity during a switch.
Contribution: Waiting also leaves the team doing the work the new tool is meant to remove. Consider a limited pilot while retaining the current system, but agree who maintains parallel records, how long the team can support that work and when to stop.
Basis and limit: An operational judgment in an invented scenario. The team's capacity and acceptable disruption remain unknown.
Illustrative integration note
IQ256 would keep the full switch on hold and set out the export checks and customer-effort limits needed to assess a limited pilot. The technical objection remains unresolved until the export evidence is adequate. This recommendation does not authorize migration, supplier contact or spending. The customer retains the decision unless explicitly delegated. This fictional example is not a completed client assignment or evidence of actual contributors.
A contributor's focused input does not imply endorsement of every conclusion or independent verification of every claim. IQ256 remains responsible for the integrated delivery.
What if work is blocked?
If work is blocked, IQ256 explains the obstacle, useful work completed, the effect on time and cost, and the available next steps. We agree the next course before exceeding the mandate. Unfinished work is not called complete.
