Company Overviews
Fluxx maintains three Company Overview tracks at different voice registers. Track A is industry voice (default). Track B is operator-tier depth. Track C is cold-audience voice. They are independent canonical bodies, not lockstep versions (per S95 anti-pattern #14 against lockstep version-up).
The three tracks draw from the same canon entity layer (source files in 02_Working/Strategy/Company_Overview/*_Source_*.md) but render at different voice registers for different audiences. A reader who knows the industry hears Track A. A pipeline TD or production operator hears Track B. A finance investor without VFX depth hears Track C.
Track A v0.12, current, industry voice (default)
Voice register. Industry-aware, references VP / VFX / pipeline conventions without lecturing. Assumes the reader knows what a Vault is, what a render farm is, what a comp pass means. Treats Govaere’s diagnosis as peer-level.
Target audience. Investors with industry exposure, executives, producers, partner studios, vendor leads. The default voice when an audience hasn’t been narrowed.
Status. Shipped to Shared at S98. Current version v0.12 at 04_Fluxx_Shared/Reference/Fluxx_Company_Overview_Track_A_v0.12.md.
Summary. Track A presents Fluxx as the operating system around the wall, made deployable. Production owns the pipeline. Infrastructure travels. ComposiTrack at capture-time. Two finishing tracks (Near-Time plus Near-Time VFX) through one workflow. Fabrixx as the canonical compute substrate. Fluxx Automate as in-house production tracking. Vendor recast into three modes (Lead vendor inside Fabrixx, loan-out of named artists, scope-defined builds). AI / human policy locked (crowds yes with scanning and payment, performance never, narrow disfigurement exception).
v0.12 patches: (1) pre-comp recipe → CompViz rename per S58 Q-G canonical rename. (2) ComposiTrack chroma-shift framing rewritten to match Whitepaper v0.1 canonical patent-mechanism description.
Where this voice goes. Default investor decks, partnership decks, general inbound conversations. The Fluxx Seed Pitch derives the unsuffixed base from Track A. The OS Whitepaper v4 is the longer-form companion in this voice register.

Track B v0.5, working, operator-tier depth
Voice register. Deeper register for operators who need pipeline mechanics. Names specific systems, specific events, specific data model fields. Diligence-grade. Always pushes runtime past 30 minutes when narrated end-to-end.
Target audience. Pipeline TDs evaluating Fluxx for integration, vendor engineering leads, partner studio TDs, internal team alignment. Counsel evaluating patent surface (depth matches what they need to assess prior-art collisions).
Status. Working, v0.5, in 02_Working/. Not shipped to Shared yet. Per the Jason Myers BTS scope decision, Track B is intentionally excluded from NotebookLM cold-audience cuts (always pushes runtime past 30 min through diligence-grade detail).
Summary. Track B walks the five Fluxx-native primitives in detail (ComposiTrack three sub-frames, Warp plus Fabrixx split with named GPU counts, Vault as content-addressed substrate with provenance schema fields enumerated, two finishing tracks with per-shot finish_track field naming, pipeline-owned VM lifecycle with event topics named). Walks AYON Port catalogue plus Reject catalogue with rationale. Walks DCC bridge architecture with eight surfaces named. Walks the plugin SDK with the four Fluxx-native categories plus six settings scopes.
Where this voice goes. RFP responses, vendor integration packs, partner-studio TD evaluations, counsel patent-evaluation packs. The Pipeline Architecture Whitepaper v0.1 is the closest formal-document analog. Not used in pitch decks (too dense).

Track C v0.2, working, cold-audience voice
Voice register. Cold-audience register. Assumes the reader knows film at the executive level but not VFX or production pipelines. Uses analogies (taxi-cab analogy for vendor margin model). Names the category (Near-Time VFX) before naming the company. Foregrounds financial framing (the “at half the cost” / ~50 percent claim per Q-G57 §5 number lock — 50% on VFX is the floor, whole-film cost comes down; S133/S139).
Target audience. Finance investors without VFX depth, studio decision-makers from the business side, cold inbound interest, broad industry observers. Authored under the Q-G81-87 cold-cluster (5 Q-Gs explicitly for cold audience tier).
Status. v0.2 working. Brief at v0.2.
Summary. Track C opens with the broken-pipeline problem in terms a finance person recognizes (the bill that doesn’t add up). The taxi-cab analogy explains why vendor margin model rewards waste. The 50-of-450 reality lands the economic core. ComposiTrack and Fabrixx are named only as much as needed to make the financial story work. The category framing (Near-Time VFX) leads; the company name (Fluxx) follows.
Where this voice goes. Cold-audience inbound, finance-tier investor introductions, BTS Business Case NotebookLM episode (with Jason Myers as the audience), broad industry-observer touch.

Track relationship
The three tracks are not parallel pipelines, not lockstep versions, and not parent / child derivatives. They are independent canonical bodies serving different audiences from the same canon entity layer. When a Q-G entry locks (or a source canon file is updated), all three tracks may need patches, but they patch independently; Track A v0.12 does not block Track B v0.5 from shipping its own changes.
The S95 anti-pattern #14 was a previous instinct to version Track A, B, C in lockstep with the same version number. Locked: tracks version independently per their own change cycle.
