Team Human — the podcast
Co-hosted by Kalyn and her daughter Micaela Garlow — real conversations about people, technology, and staying human while AI moves into everyday life. The newsletter I write with Codex, in conversation form.
Before You Buy an AI System, Know What You’re Actually Buying.
Independent AI Appraisals with Kalyn Wright
AI vendors show you what their systems can do. I help you determine whether the system you’re being offered can do what your business actually needs — and whether the price makes sense.

Just me, six ways
How I use AI — the short version
Six everyday uses: running my company through my AI agent, teaching, writing, traveling, spending my own money carefully — and making the AIs audit each other. Each one gets its own room on the full page.
How I use AI — the full page- As a CEO — I run my working life through my AI agent, Muse — I call her Noor. She verifies prices, triages my inbox, builds my websites to spec, and checks move-day weather. She doesn’t run the company. I do.
- As a mom — I build homeschool courses with Codex, the way I taught both of my kids to college-ready by 16.
- As a writer — Team Human, my monthly newsletter, is written with Codex in the draft chair. My stories, my judgment.
- As a traveler — Claude routes my RV trips under two unbreakable rules: the rig has to fit, and Starlink has to see clear sky.
- As a shopper — before I spend, AI verifies the price, the seller, and the facts. Unverifiable means skipped.
- As the final check — no single AI gets taken on its word. I run a tribunal of AI models that audit each other’s work — and I make the call.
Stories — the short version of everything
Real stories. Short reads. No fluff.
On the road
My RV Is 42 Feet Long. The Trees Were the Problem.
Book the wrong park and a 42-foot rig has nowhere to go. Before a single night was booked, I had AI check every stop on Highway 101: does the rig actually fit, and is there clear sky overhead so I can still get my work done?

At the checkout
I Needed a Nail Salon on a Sunday. Three Lost Me Without Knowing.
New town, no recommendations, a hard $100 limit. If I couldn’t check a salon’s real menu price before booking, it didn’t get my Sunday — or my money.

One-on-one consult · 60 minutes · $1,000
Before you buy the AI system, get it appraised.
One hour, one-on-one: an independent appraisal of the AI system you’re being pitched — does it actually do what you hope it will do, before you commit tens of thousands a year to it? I’ll even get on the call when they pitch you and ask the proof questions. Then send me the actual offer, and I’ll give you a straight verdict: buy it, or keep looking.
