Knowledge Base and technical notes

The company’s technical library, and the foundation pages that explain how those methods underpin our products and services.

Foundation pages

  • Why this work matters — Why language, cognitive frameworks and computability sit at the centre of the products and services we offer.
  • Information and uncertainty — Information theory as a method for reading news, markets and other uncertain situations.
  • Psychophysics — Perception and stimulus measurement as a foundation for interfaces and monitoring desks.
  • Cognitive frameworks — Shared frames that shape what a group can notice, value and decide — and how products should account for that.
  • Memory — How storage in minds and in systems conditions what can be recalled and reused in a product.
  • Language as protocol — Syntax, semantics, pragmatics and convention as infrastructure for software and analysis.
  • The Math Protocol — Formal structure — set theory, formal languages, computability and category theory — as a method for keeping meaning rigorous.
  • IEML — Information Economy Metalanguage as a ground for computable meaning in knowledge systems and Situation Monitor.
  • Engineering path — UX architecture, IEML and natural language processing as the route from method to product.
