A personal developmental companion
Meet Jones.
A developmental companion for meaningful experiences.
Jones helps people make more of the experiences they are already having. Across research programs, internships, summer programs, professional development, and other structured experiences, Jones helps participants reflect, plan, connect ideas, recognize growth, and make meaning of what happens along the way.
The moments that matter
Experiences matter.
What people make of them matters too.
Throughout the experience
More than reflection.
Jones is not simply a journal or a chatbot. Jones is a developmental companion — a consistent, thoughtful presence throughout an experience that helps participants do much more than record what happened.
The goal is not to have Jones do the experience for someone. The goal is to help them make more of the experience they are already having.
Personal, within a shared experience
Built around the person.
Shaped by the program.
- 01
Program
Intentional experiences, activities, resources, and developmental goals.
- 02
Jones
Personalized, responsive interaction across the full arc of the experience.
- 03
Participant
Their experiences, questions, goals, relationships, ideas, challenges, and development over time.
Many paths. Meaningful experiences.
Experiences Jones can support.
Jones can be shaped around many kinds of structured developmental experiences across education, industry, community organizations, and other settings. Programs may look very different from one another, and many will cross the categories below.
Every experience is different. Jones is shaped around the goals, structure, activities, and people of the program it supports.
A longer view
Development happens
across an experience.
The framework
Five lenses.
More ways to see.
Jones is informed by the 5Ps: People, Place, Personal, Practice, and Profession created by Sara Chavarria and Corey Knox. The 5Ps offer different lenses for making connections, asking questions, and noticing dimensions that might otherwise go unseen.
“The Ps overlap. They are lenses for seeing more, not boxes for sorting what we see.”
