Today that changes.
Two exercises
One to get right.
One to win.

A second café.
Fastest correct close wins.
You know the race is coming. You do not know what is in it.
The thesis
Build capex,
not opex.
Machinery you build once and redeploy forever. The next client goes hours to minutes. That is the whole game: for the bookkeeper, for Jaz, for us.
Scoring
Two kinds of answer.
- Hand in
- Your books in Jaz, plus 5 slides or a memo. Generate them with AI. Hand-crafting slides is opex.
- Deterministic
- Matches the key to the cent, or it bounces.
- Judgment
- Defend the reasoning, not a number.
- Traps
- Nothing is flagged. Spotting it counts.
- Submitting
- Checked on the spot. Errors bounce back and the clock keeps running. First accepted submission wins.
How to work
Whatever is fastest.
- Tools
- Dashboard, AI, code, MCP. Your call.
- AI
- For knowledge. Not for typing every line.
- The client
- On Telegram. Knows what happened, not how to book it.
- Friction log
- Open all day.
By midnight
Capex not opex.
Three levels up.
True for the bookkeeper. What Jaz sells. How we build.

takes Bali.
