Overview
In Invisible Interface, operator-investor Harry Glorikian explains how artificial intelligence is quietly moving us from “open an app and tap” to “say what you want and it gets done.” The shift sounds small. It’s not. When software becomes invisible, trust becomes the interface.
Glorikian introduces the concept of the Personal Operating Layer (POL)—a helpful, always-on teammate that understands your context, coordinates across your tools, and acts on your behalf while keeping you in control. A true POL does five things well: it remembers what matters to you, reasons across your information, reaches into apps and services to take action, reflects on results to improve next time, and respects your boundaries with clear controls you can see and stop.
This is a practical book for busy people who need outcomes. Glorikian defines a new measure for trust—proof-seconds, the time it takes to verify that an answer is correct. If it takes under ten seconds to confirm, users will return the next day. From there, the book gets concrete:
- Receipts that show sources and confidence, right on the result.
- Overrides (a visible stop button) so humans can correct the system in the moment.
- Audits so teams can learn, comply, and improve.
Invisible Interface reveals how the economics of intelligence are changing—how cheaper cognition flips business models and reshapes who captures value. It shows why defaults decide: in a world of agent-to-agent commerce, the product that becomes the “one-slot pick” wins the customer in seconds. And it demonstrates how to redesign work so people focus on judgment and relationships while agents handle the grind.
Drawing on examples from healthcare, finance, and everyday life, Glorikian translates the technical into the practical, providing tools leaders can apply immediately—a Decision-Friction Index to prioritize automation, a Beacon/Receipt framework for building trustworthy products, and an Agent Experience Optimization checklist to help organizations earn default status.
If your strategy still starts with “build another app,” you’re aiming at yesterday. Invisible Interface is the field guide to leading when decisions happen at the speed of intent.
