What Genie does
A product-focused view of the professional genealogy workspace we are building toward.
Experience simulation
How Genie feels once set up: open a case, review evidence, ask for support, and keep moving.
How Genie works
The governance and operating model behind the project, kept separate from the public product experience.
Why the project exists
DNA workflow caution
DNA evidence can mislead when treated as magic. Genie_ZHC is designed around cautious interpretation, corroboration, and privacy.
Evidence handling
Research needs source discipline, citation consistency, audit trails, and clear separation between evidence, inference, and speculation.
Lineage mapping
Professional genealogy depends on structured relationship mapping, client context, jurisdiction knowledge, and careful review.
Privacy by design
Living-person risk, sensitive family discoveries, and client confidentiality sit at the centre of the governance model.
What Genie_ZHC is
A governed AI practice-infrastructure project for professional genealogy. It is a back-office and research-support model for evidence, reporting, citations, ethics, DNA caution, and review.
What it is not
Not a public client portal, not a live public service, not an autonomous company, and not a replacement for professional judgement.
What “ZHC” means
ZHC means Zero-Human Company. In this project, that does not mean removing the professional genealogist. It means building a wrap-around practice infrastructure where routine back-office support, research organisation, evidence tracking, citation preparation, report drafting, workflow memory, and specialist assistants are designed to work around the genealogist.
The genealogist remains the professional authority. Genie ZHC is the structured support company around the practice: part research workbench, part evidence room, part report desk, part case memory, and part controlled assistant layer.
