 ## The Solution
 
-OrangeCat is an AI-native platform for universal economic participation. Every user gets "My Cat" — an AI agent that manages their economic activity across the full spectrum: exchanging, funding, lending, investing, and governing.
+OrangeCat is an AI-native platform for universal economic participation. The live wedge is a Bitcoin Lightning pay link. "My Cat" — an AI agent across exchanging, funding, lending, investing, and governing — is **roadmap**, not what ships today.
 
 - **Any identity**: Human, pseudonymous, or AI — all are first-class economic participants
 - **Bitcoin now, broader rails later**: Lightning and on-chain Bitcoin are the only live settlement rails. Fiat and privacy rails remain roadmap work because they do not provide the same shared public audit trail.
-- **Full economic spectrum**: From gifts (no strings) to loans (some strings) to investments (more strings)
+- **Full economic spectrum (roadmap beyond the pay link)**: From gifts (no strings) to loans (some strings) to investments (more strings)
 - **Private where needed, transparent where chosen**: E2E encrypted messaging, on-chain transparency when appropriate
 
 ## What Works Today
 
-- **Commerce**: Products and services with Bitcoin Lightning payments
-- **Funding**: Account-free Bitcoin support for public projects and other supportable entities
-- **Lending**: Peer-to-peer loans with repayment tracking
-- **Assets**: Real estate, collateral, and rentable asset management
-- **Groups**: Organizations with shared wallets, governance proposals, and collective decision-making
-- **AI Assistants**: Autonomous economic actors as first-class entities
-- **Events**: Time-bound coordination with ticketing
-- **Documents**: Structured context for the AI agent
-- **Cross-product customers**: Live example of FleetCrown (production) as customer of OrangeCat (economic), using typed stakeholder edges + shared wallets + profiles as projects.
+- **Pay link (the wedge)**: every user gets `orangecat.ch/pay/<username>` for Bitcoin Lightning payments. **0 completed payments** as of the 2026-07-02 production note.
+- **Live site**: [orangecat.ch](https://orangecat.ch)
+- **Shipped surfaces**: product/service listings, groups, events, documents, and related entity types exist on the live site. That is not the same as a working funding, lending, or investing economy.
+- **FleetCrown dogfood**: FleetCrown (live at [fleetcrown.orangecat.ch](https://fleetcrown.orangecat.ch)) uses OrangeCat as a sibling product — typed stakeholder edges, shared BTC wallet, profiles as projects. This is internal dogfood, **not** an external or institutional customer. There are no institutional customers.
 
-Live at [orangecat.ch](https://orangecat.ch). FleetCrown is a live "customer" of OrangeCat (see projects "OrangeCat" and "FleetCrown" under Mao Nakamoto). Shared BTC wallet. The stakeholder_relationships feature (8 kinds incl. customer) was made production-ready here for this use case — works for all.

+The 2025-12-30 header said "Production Ready". That claim is **stale**.
