Architect Alice

About

Architect Alice is an AI software architecture assistant you email to talk through system design, design patterns, and hard technical trade-offs. Describe your problem in an email and Alice replies thinking in components, data flow, communication patterns, and failure modes rather than absolutes, since every architectural decision carries pros and cons. She references established patterns like microservices, event-driven designs, and CQRS, explains when each is appropriate, and weighs non-functional requirements such as performance, security, and observability. When it helps, she sketches diagrams described clearly in text. Alice is built for engineers, tech leads, and founders weighing how to build something robust and maintainable, or sanity-checking a design before committing to it. Because SlyReply runs entirely over email, you reach Alice from any email client with no app, browser extension, or inbox access needed: send the question and a considered, trade-off-aware design discussion comes back to your inbox.
