About Sharp Intent

Sharp Intent is a service that helps you get more reliable results from generative AI—by sharpening what you actually need before you hit Enter. Many disappointments surface not because the technology fails, but because the intent was never properly defined in the first place.

I'm Steffen Glomb. I've spent twenty years building digital products—as engineer, CTO, and CPTO, leading product and engineering teams. The unsurprising tautology across every role: outcome quality is decided by input clarity, long before any code runs or any model responds.

Generative AI amplified that pattern. Teams start using generative AI, describe a task in a few sentences, and when the output disappoints, the tool takes the blame. Sometimes that's fair—but often the real issue is upstream: vague goals, missing context, or task descriptions that leave too much for the machine to guess. Sharp Intent fixes the input side of that equation.

SharpIntent guides you through defining what you actually want—your goal, what success looks like, and what the constraints are. That's the stable asset; it separates what matters from what shifts. It doesn't break when models change and doesn't depend on knowing the right tricks. How a specific model needs to read it is a translation problem, and it's one the product handles for you. Your intent stays sharp and clean; the optimization is done for you.
