Mira walked over, holding a mug of actual, hot coffee. “So? What do you think?”

The dashboard was a work of art. It wasn’t just numbers and graphs; it was a living, breathing model of Velo Dynamics itself. On the left, a live feed of their ERP system pulsed with green and yellow nodes. In the center, a heat map of customer sentiment crawled across a world map, updating in real time. On the right, a module labeled was already blinking.
