# About ThinkThen

Ian Maurer makes ThinkThen. He is the CTO of [GenomOncology](https://www.genomoncology.com/).

## Why it exists

Code sees strings. It cannot tell what a message means. ThinkThen asks a model a bounded question about a piece of text. It gives your code back a plain answer and an exit code. A script can branch on that answer, as it would on any other value. [Code that knows what you mean](/blog/code-that-understands/) tells the longer story.
