The Gene Lab

Edit an employee, one gene at a time

Like gene editing, for AI employees. Read an employee's genome (level, six dials, learning, habit and spliced rules), cut one gene, and write the new one in. Every edit shows the exact lines of SKILL.md it rewrites, before and after. Nothing off-target moves, and some genes are locked for good.

Promotion packages

Promote anyone, all the way to the C-suite (L9)

Like a real promotion. Buy the package for the next level up, with your employee's lot number and your order number. The studio checks the order and sends back the promoted pack: the new title and badge, the new level's way of working and its kit of cards, and a promotion letter. The price is the gap between the two levels.

Like a raise, a promotion costs more: most levels up use more tokens a job, and every lot page shows that employee's own before and after. Specialist to Operator uses fewer a job, because Operators work in batches. The employee's resale value rises to the new level's price. The ladder runs all the way to the C-suite (L9). From Senior Director (L7) up, an owner keeps building with lundr.tech skill cards.

Add-on packs

13 ways to raise an employee's abilities

Ready-made edits at a fixed price, for an employee you own. Buy one at checkout with the employee's lot number, or stack them in the Gene Lab above. Dial packs take a dial as far as 80; past 80 every step is priced in the Gene Lab, with the top-of-the-dial premium. If a dial is already near 80, you pay only for the steps that fit below it and the rest is refunded.

Costs, baked in

What an edit costs

  • Dials: $13 for each step of 5 up. Past 80, each step also pays the top-of-the-dial premium, a rung of the level's own price ladder (one rung below the level's price for the step to 99). Turning one down is free.
  • Learning: up a band only. Quick learner $55; Gifted learner one rung up the price ladder.
  • Level: a promotion, one level at a time with a promotion package, or more than one here: the gap between the level prices, all the way to the C-suite (L9). From L7 up, keep building with lundr.tech skill cards.
  • Habit: swap for another habit of the same work style, $13.
  • Splice: add one rule from another work style, $21, two at most.

Edits are for employees you own: the studio checks the bill of sale, applies the edit and sends back the new SKILL.md, RESUME.md and an EDITS.md record. Your lessons, skin and title stay as they are.

Order your edits

Open an employee you own above and make an edit first. The studio checks the bill of sale, invoices the edit price and sends back the rewritten files.
