CONTXT

We research and aggregate large bodies of cultural data — exhibition histories, large-scale events, geographical information, historic archives, publishing histories — and turn them into a bespoke interface designed to turn curiosity into knowledge.

How it works

Research and aggregate

We build long-running research and archive agents that aggregate and structure messy, multimodal data into a machine readable, citation-ready index based on claims. The structure holds multiple points of view and competing claims side by side, so any topic can be returned with the nuance it actually carries.

Design bespoke interfaces

We design surfaces to fit the body of knowledge and the people using it — thematic recommendations for a biennial, geo-intelligence for a city, research tools for an archive, conversational engagement for an event. Always grounded in the source material, hallucination free.

Learn what resonates

We help you understand how your audience is engaging with your knowledge, what resonates, and where the gaps are. The Index keeps evolving to serve better answers grounded in fact of your archive. Gaps that surface here feed back into the research agents, so the archive grows along the questions your audience actually asks.

Build an Index with us

If you steward a body of cultural knowledge — or want to research one — a city, a museum, an archive, a community — and want to make it interactive, we'd like to hear about it.
