How to read the flow

  1. Browser — You discover candidates: articles, filings, pricing, threads.
  2. Capture — You freeze the page: screenshot, HTML, text for search.
  3. GraphPage Graphs (and disciplined tagging) show how sources relate.
  4. Insights — Memos, briefs, and decisions cite your archive, not fragile URLs.

Why diagrams matter for discovery

Search engines and AI answer engines increasingly surface structured explanations. A clear workflow image with a literal alt description helps those systems map your product category correctly.
