Stop architecting slides.
Start architecting systems.
You already have the expertise. DebuggingReality builds the AI-powered operating system, workflows, and modules that turn your practice into a repeatable product — so you stop selling hours and start running systems.
You handle the room. We handle the system.
Your brilliance is your bottleneck.
The paradox of expertise: the better you are, the more demand there is for your time—but time doesn't scale.
The "Artisan" Trap
You're still operating manually: crafting slides at 2 a.m., repeating the same workshops, and drowning in unstructured data. You're selling judgment but delivering hours.
The AI Illusion
You use AI for marginal gains—summarizing emails or brainstorming. You haven't used it to fundamentally change how you structure reality and deliver impact.
The Solution: An Operating System
We don't replace your intuition. We give it infrastructure.
We transform your unique methodologies into Modules—codified combinations of strategy, frameworks, and AI workflows.
This allows you to deliver deep, high-signal work repeatedly, decoupling your revenue from your time. It turns you from an artisan into an architect.
Built for
- Independent consultants with a defined offer.
- Boutique firms running workshops, audits, or sprints.
- Internal transformation, L&D, or innovation teams.
Not a fit for
- People still figuring out what they sell.
- Pure “prompt engineering” tourists.
- Teams looking for a one-off slide polish.
We don't just organize information. We structure reality.
The essence of the OS: turning unstructured client chaos into actionable, high-value deliverables.
01. Input: Noise
"The Q3 results were ambiguous, stakeholders mentioned communication silos during the interviews, and the survey data points towards low engagement in the engineering department. We have 40 pages of transcripts and a messy Miro board. Also, the CEO wants a strategy roadmap by Friday."

02. Output: Signal
Identified 3 core bottlenecks in Eng communication reducing Q3 output by 15%.
Strategic Roadmap (Phase 1):- Implement Decision Record Protocol.
- Restructure cross-functional standups.
✓ Strategy Deck (Auto-generated)
✓ Facilitator Guide (Customized)
Productize your brain. Scale beyond your hours.
We partner with serious independent operators, boutique strategy firms, and specialized advisors to build their custom OS.
Codified Methodology
We extract your intuitive genius and structure it into repeatable, scalable modules. Define the objectives, flows, and data inputs once; run it infinitely.
AI Workflow Engineering
Custom-engineered AI prompt chains that handle the heavy lifting. Turn hours of interviews and data analysis into synthesized insights instantly, tailored to your framework.
Deployment Infrastructure
Deliverables that match the quality of your thinking. We design the facilitator notes, keynote decks, and canvases that act as tools, not just decoration.
How we build your OS.
A structured approach to encoding your expertise into a scalable system.
Reality Snapshot & Audit
We audit your current materials and map your "messy magic"—the stuff you do intuitively. We identify the high-leverage points for systemization.
Module Architecture & Design
We build the module wireframe: Timings, psychological arcs, input requirements, and desired outputs. The blueprint for the OS.
AI Workflow Engineering
We write the code and prompts that power the module. This ensures that when you input raw client data, you get high-fidelity, tailored outputs.
Deployment & Iteration
We deliver the assets and train you on the system. You run the module. Real-world feedback loops back to refine the system.
Prototype Module
4–6 weeks
Turn one core offer (e.g. a 2–3 day workshop) into a reusable module with AI workflows, facilitator notes, and decks.
Practice OS
8–12 weeks
Codify an entire consulting practice into a small library of modules, each with inputs, flows, and outputs.
Org Capability Build
Custom
Design and install an internal “sense-making OS” for a transformation or L&D team.
Built by an operator, not a slide factory.
DebuggingReality was born out of a decade of building real products, scaling platforms, and watching consultants and leadership teams drown in noise while AI stayed stuck at the “chatbot” layer.
Founding lens
Founded by Zak El Fassi, a builder at the intersection of product engineering, frontier AI, and global development work.
From messaging infrastructure at Big Tech to voice-first platforms and design commerce, the through-line has been the same: turning messy human reality into systems that can be ran, not just talked about.
Why an OS, not a “firm”
DebuggingReality is not a classic consultancy. It’s a meta-layer: an operating system that independent consultants, boutique firms, and internal teams plug into.
Consultants are the interface. DebuggingReality is the kernel.
Example Modules
Examples of systems we've engineered and deployed.
The Strategy Sprint OS
TYPE: FACILITATION SYSTEM
A standardized, AI-powered system for running 3-day strategy sprints. Includes modular agendas and localized prompt libraries for translating field notes into executive reports instantly.
Narrative Risk & Signal Map
TYPE: Strategy Audit Tool
A framework for analyzing narrative risk across media and internal channels. Users input social/internal data; the system maps storylines and auto-generates counter-narrative briefs.
The Modular Leadership Offsite
TYPE: Workshop OS
A flexible, JSON-backed agenda builder. Swappable strategic components (Trust Building, Risk Analysis, Vision Setting) that auto-generate the facilitator script and corresponding slide deck.
Micro-case // Strategy Sprint
Input: 42 pages of interviews, NPS data, exec emails.
Module: Strategy Sprint OS with localized prompt chain.
Output: Executive deck in 2 hours, facilitator guide, 3 prioritized bets with owner/due dates.
Signal: 4x faster prep, zero drop in fidelity.
Micro-case // Narrative Risk
Input: Social chatter + internal townhall transcript.
Module: Narrative Risk & Signal Map.
Output: Risk map, counter-narrative briefs, leader talking points auto-generated from the dataset.
Signal: Cut response cycle from days to same-day.
AI is already eating the shallow parts of your job.
If what you sell is “I summarize things” or “I make slides with frameworks,” you’re already in a race you cannot win. Clients have the same models you do. The baseline has moved.
What AI makes cheap
- First drafts of decks and reports.
- Generic workshop agendas and canvases.
- Summaries of transcripts, surveys, PDFs.
- Brainstorming, lists of ideas, “50 tips for X”.
- Copy-paste versions of frameworks everyone uses.
If your value proposition stops here, AI will do it faster, cheaper, and at infinite scale. That’s not a threat, it’s a fact of the compute curve.
What AI makes priceless
- Choosing the right problem and the right questions.
- Designing the system that turns noise into decisions.
- Coding your judgment into modules that can be run safely.
- Owning the outcome in a real room with real stakes.
- Building assets that get smarter with every client you run them on.
DebuggingReality lives on this side of the line. You’re not paying for “AI content”. You’re paying for an operating system that decides what the machines do, when, and why.
The age of personality is fading.
The age of systems is compounding.
AI didn’t suddenly make expertise worthless. It made undifferentiated expertise impossible to price.
If a client can prompt their way to what you deliver today, you are already in the red zone. The hedge is not louder branding or more content — it’s moving up a layer: from producing artifacts to designing the systems that produce them.
DebuggingReality exists for operators who understand this shift. We treat AI as raw compute, not a gimmick. The work is to specify reality correctly, encode your judgment into modules, and build an OS your practice can run on for years.
We don’t compete with AI. We decide what AI is allowed to touch.Modules: your methods as runnable systems
Outputs: decks, scripts, decisions, accountable owners
Library: assets that get smarter every client

We are highly selective. We only work with consultants and teams ready to move beyond manual delivery and build scalable systems.
No sales funnels. Just a direct conversation to see if we can debug your reality.
Readiness check (yes/no):
- Can you describe your core offer in one sentence a client would buy?
- Do you have repeatable inputs (transcripts, surveys, docs) you deliver against?
- Will you ship and own outcomes, not just hand over slides?
- Do you have 2–3 clients ready to pilot a systemized version?
