Frequently asked questions

  • What's the founder's motivation and vision for building MARCIE?

    Having cheered and supported his writer wife Karin for years, Nikhil was inspired to help writers build a platform of their own. Karin is a professional writer. She has published 10 books, which includes a 7 book series. She can be reached at: https://www.karinshah.com/

    Nikhil has observed similarity between writing code and writing a book - problem solving and creativity, design decisions/narrative arc, code refactoring/revising drafts, testing/seeking feedback, minimal viable product/advance reader copy, shipping/publishing, digital marketing, testimonials, and references. Developers use lots of tools. However, highly effective toolchains are an indisputable component of their productivity and success. Writers too have access to tools. What they don't have is their own AI powered toolchain. That is what MARCIE is.

    What Open Source software did for developers, we envision doing it for writers. Give them the power to do awesome work at incredible speed.

  • What's the founder's background?

    Nikhil has deep experience in tech, cloud, and AI. He loves to read, write, be active, and prioritizes an idyllic lifestyle.

    Nikhil has written two very short non-fiction articles for executives -
    Anatomy of Speed, Run With The Mountain

    Nikhil can be reached on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikhilshah/

  • Is MARCIE's development funded bootstrapped?

    Yes! We built the entire stack - webapp, text-to-web AI, the M.AR.C.I.E engine, the automation, cloud infrastructure - for tenth of the cost of what a funded startup spends over multiple years. Engineering can be expensive for non-tech founders and product teams. We know how to be frugal and execute really well. MARCIE can be accessed at: https://marcie.app

  • What is MARCIE?

    MARCIE is a human sounding name for a powerful AI called M.AR.C.I.E. It stands for Multidimensional ARray Configuration Inferred Expression. We built M.AR.C.I.E to serve as a foundation for the platform for writers. It's THE thing that makes the platform deliver value for writers.
