Gopan: Protect confidential work while you present.
Doric Stack sells Gopan, a capture-protected desktop workspace for confidential reference work during screen shares. The same studio offers fixed-scope payments and AI advisory, with Field Notes as public proof of the operating judgment behind the work.
Reading first? Field Notes show the payment, AI, and architecture decisions this studio is built around. Read the proof trail
Track 1
Public Systems
Working tools and public proof from three decades of field experience. Each surface earns its place by showing the operating judgment behind it.

Public tool
MCP Broker
Open repository, release facts, and a product page that shows profile-gated MCP routing.
Free Public repo, release, license, topics, and language facts are inspectable.
Track 2
Expert Advisory
Scoped review work for teams making payment, AI, SaaS, vendor, or integration decisions that need written evidence before the build path hardens.
Founder-led review
Senior payments and AI systems judgment, made inspectable.
Doric Stack is run by a builder who turns product, payments, AI, and integration decisions into public software, Field Notes, and scoped review artifacts.
- Payments architecture across merchant models, settlement, reconciliation, disputes, and operating risk.
- Applied AI systems work across LLM apps, MCP tooling, provider boundaries, evaluation, and fallback behavior.
- Product proof through released software, public tools, and written decision trails.
What the buyer gets
A recommendation, rejected paths, risk register, and first implementation slice. The work is scoped around a decision, not an open-ended consulting lane.

Architectural Insights
Decades of field decisions turned into reusable judgment. Explore our latest thinking on AI Agent payment rails and ISO 20022 infrastructure.
Strategy
BRICS payment rails are real, and they are at pilot scale
Five central banks are testing a settlement platform that does not touch SWIFT or the dollar. mBridge has been live since 2022, reached minimum viable product in mid-2024, and has moved about 55 billion dollars across roughly 4,000 transactions. SWIFT moves about 53 million messages on an average day. These are parallel rails for specific corridors, and infrastructure moves at infrastructure speed, not headline speed.
Payments
Stablecoin payments have an architecture answer and no operations answer
At 3:17 AM the confirmation never arrived. Two million in institutional stablecoin, and the custody record said complete, the counterparty said pending, the smart contract said something else again. The regulatory stack is finally coherent. The exception playbook that ACH and wires spent decades building does not exist yet, and that gap is where institutions are walking in.
Payments
Sanctions screening as code: one policy, a different actuator per rail
The payment is final in under a second and your sanctions analyst is still opening the alert. On an instant rail there is no review window, so the screen has to clear or stop the payment in code, inside the latency budget. The policy model can be common across rails. The action on a hit cannot, because RTP, the card networks, and SEPA Instant each demand a different commit semantic.
Credibility
Payments depth, AI build work, and product proof in one studio.
Doric Stack is an enterprise-grade technical studio. The public surface stays inspectable: released apps, public tools, written reasoning, and scoped deliverables.
Production paths
Payment, treasury, and enterprise system work.
Multi-rail systems
RTP, FedNow, ACH, wire, SWIFT, card, and settlement patterns.
Applied AI tooling
Agentic commerce, multi-agent orchestration, model fine-tuning, and runtime governance.
