Why AI Needs a Control Plane: Building Prompt Tornado

Most AI s look impressive. But building reliable AI workflows is much harder than generating a single output from a prompt. Once you try to build a real system, you quickly run into problems: • switching between multiple AI tools • coordinating text, images, audio, & code outputs • handling provider failures • routing tasks to the right models • keeping track of what actually happened during execution What starts as a simple prompt often turns into a fragile chain of scripts, APIs, and manual steps.
