A key differentiator for Cortico is its unique cooperation agreement with MIT Center for Constructive Communication (MIT CCC) at MIT Media Lab that enables collaboration on prototype tools and pilots, leading to shared intellectual property.
This collaboration combines Cortico’s applied focus with MIT CCC’s interdisciplinary research strengths that bring together researchers in AI, computational social science, digital interactive design, and learning technologies with software engineers, journalists, political scientists, designers, and community organizations. Together, we explore how the ancient wisdoms of human conversation and emerging digital technologies can come together to support more constructive communication, strengthen civic dialogue, and elevate underheard voices in a rapidly evolving information landscape.
While Cortico brings these innovations into real-world practice through its platform and partner network, MIT CCC provides the research foundation—ensuring the work is grounded in rigorous methodology, human-centered design, and deep ethical consideration.
