Quantifying the human condition.

PROJECT:SAPIEN

Quantifying the human condition.

We are a research organization using artificial intelligence and quantitative methods from computational science to understand the human desire and actions at a population level.

High-Quality Datasets

We collect semantic data from diverse populations of interest, with a focus on particular research questions.

Large Language Models (LLMs)

LLMs enables us to extract novel insights from raw unstructured data.

Quantitative Analysis

We take inspiration from computational sciences, statistics, machine learning, and related fields to test important hypotheses.

Actionable Insights

We make our results publicly available and aim to convert findings into meaningful action.

Join the Community

Stay up to date with our work, relevant news, and opportunities to join the team in our Slack workspace.

We are quantitatively identifying the important factors influencing our trajectory as a species, from sentiments around future-focused ideas, to acute phenomena influencing daily life.
