Read article →Questions about Insights
What do you write about?
Things we have measured ourselves while building Loquelle, Iris and client products. In practice that means:
- What AI features and software actually cost, and how long they take to ship
- How search is changing: SEO, AEO and GEO, and how to get cited by AI answer engines
- Engineering write-ups of real failures and what we changed, such as hallucinated meeting suggestions or transcripts that invent sentences
- Honest notes on our own products: renames, plans, and what did not work
How often do you publish?
When there is something worth saying, which is usually two or three articles a month. We would rather publish one measured piece than a weekly post with nothing behind it. Every article names its author and the date it was last changed.
Can I use these articles for my own site or team?
Yes, with a link back. Quote freely, adapt the checklists, and if you want the underlying tools, Iris is free to run on any page and Loquelle has a free plan.
Who writes these articles?
Attiq Ur Rehman Khalid, the founder of NextiqumAI, an engineer with ten years across fintech, government systems and AI products and a Master's in Cyber Security. Every article is written from work we have actually done, carries his name, and shows the date it was published and last changed, so you can judge how current it is.
