Simulation vs. Emulation
We classify every workflow as a Simulation or an Emulation before we design anything. The classification determines the architecture.
Simulation
A measurable function with a defined output. Deterministic, predictable, and testable against objective metrics.
- Data extraction and transformation
- Rule-based routing and classification
- Report generation and formatting
Emulation
A unified system of orchestrated agents projecting cohesive identity. Adaptive, context-aware, validated against human baselines.
- Complex decision-making with nuance
- Multi-agent collaboration and negotiation
- Creative content and strategy generation
Phase One Is an Audit
