Founder
Built by a multidisciplinary solo founder.
John Chapman-Fortune · Singapore / London
PhD in Chemistry and Materials Science with a background spanning crypto, on-chain markets, technical research, product development and communication.
I built Artifact using AI-assisted engineering workflows and have led it from product concept through architecture, verification design, adversarial testing, public proof surfaces and controlled mainnet validation.

Define the problemTurn a vague trust issue into explicit product and evidence boundaries.
Design the constraintsDecide what Artifact can credibly verify and what it must leave unresolved.
Direct implementationUse AI-assisted engineering while retaining architecture and product ownership.
Test against realityUse real mainnet evidence, failures and adversarial review to drive the next build.
