Not Another AI Tool. A Research Platform

Built on purpose-built research methodology, not generic enterprise AI. THEUS creates data-grounded knowledge agents with bidirectional modeling for traceable knowledge exploration.

Data-Grounded Knowledge Agents

Data-Grounded Knowledge Agents

THEUS builds knowledge agents trained on your actual institutional data — surveys, panel results, sensory profiles — not generic AI responses. Connect product and consumer knowledge for bidirectional insight.

Extract, Synthesize, Explore

Extract, Synthesize, Explore

Cross-study synthesis, research gap analysis, hypothesis exploration, knowledge visualization, and institutional memory retrieval — all in seconds instead of days. With 85% of new products failing within two years (Nielsen), evidence-grounded exploration dramatically improves decision quality.

Traceable, Decision-Ready Intelligence

Traceable, Decision-Ready Intelligence

Every claim backed by a specific Fact ID with page-level citations. Pin insights, generate visualizations, and build stakeholder-ready evidence trails — all traceable to source.

How THEUS Works

Four steps from historical data to actionable insights

01

Extract Knowledge

Ingest historical research (PDFs, surveys, panel results, sensory profiles) through a 4-stage pipeline that produces 20-30 atomic facts per page with full statistical context and source provenance.

02

Synthesize Across Studies

Detect patterns, contradictions, and gaps across your entire research base. Dr. Sinclair connects findings that span years, categories, and methodologies into coherent insights.

03

Supplement Through Dialogue

Explore hypotheses through conversational interaction with data-grounded knowledge agents. Dr. Reed facilitates structured dialogues that pressure-test ideas before committing to new fieldwork.

04

Explore and Decide

Every claim traces back to a specific Fact ID with page-level citations. Pin insights, generate visualizations, and build stakeholder-ready evidence trails for confident decision-making.

Conversational Knowledge Exploration

  • Data-Grounded Conversational Agents

    Knowledge agents are built from actual behavioral data (surveys, panel results, purchase data, and sensory profiles), ensuring conversations are anchored in real evidence rather than generic AI responses.

  • Structured Dialogue Methodology

    Conversations follow established research protocols with domain-specific vocabulary. A dedicated facilitator agent guides exploration, probing for deeper context and surfacing contradictions.

  • Hypothesis Pressure-Testing

    Explore how concepts, messages, and product attributes might land before committing to expensive fieldwork. Every response traces to the evidence base so teams can evaluate the grounding behind each reaction.

Dr. Theodore Sinclair

Your Domain-Expert AI Analyst

  • Cross-Study Synthesis

    Find patterns across multiple studies. Identify gaps. Generate hypotheses grounded in everything your company already knows.

  • Research Design Support

    Design new studies informed by historical findings. Dr. Sinclair flags when questions exceed available data.

  • Whiteboard Visualization

    Explain findings to stakeholders with AI-generated schematics, presentation-ready diagrams for executive briefings.

  • Traceable Truth

    Every claim backed by a specific Fact ID with page-level citations. Pin insights, then Explain for grounded reasoning with explicit source citations.

Audit-Ready by Design

Built for Regulated Environments

Explainability and traceability aren't afterthoughts. They're the foundation. Every insight links back to its source. Every decision can be audited.

Zero Persistence

Data lives in Volatile Memory (RAM) only. Simulation data is auto-deleted after 24 hours. Avatars after 72 hours.

TKB Format

4-stage multimodal pipeline (Normalize → Visual Understanding → Extract → Validate) generates 20-30 atomic facts per page with full statistical context.

Isolation

Tab-Scoped Context. Run multiple distinct projects in parallel tabs without data cross-contamination.

No Training

Your proprietary research data is NEVER used to train our models.

Google ADK

Built on Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK). Agentic architecture with dedicated Researcher Agents that follow established research protocols.

Real Example: Dr. Sinclair Visualization

Key Concepts

The terminology behind THEUS and Knowledge Exploration

Knowledge Exploration
A methodology for extracting, synthesizing, supplementing, and exploring institutional research knowledge using AI-powered agents. Teams query decades of proprietary data in seconds, with every finding traceable to the source document and page.
Knowledge Agent
An AI-powered analytical agent trained on institutional data (surveys, panel results, purchase history, sensory profiles) rather than generic training data. THEUS knowledge agents provide grounded, traceable answers anchored in your organization's actual evidence base.
Bidirectional Knowledge Modeling
THEUS's approach of connecting product attribute knowledge and consumer response knowledge, surfacing how changes in one domain affect the other across your research history.
TKB (THEUS Knowledge Base)
A proprietary file format created by a 4-stage multimodal pipeline (Normalize, Visual Understanding, Extract, Validate) that generates 20–30 atomic facts per page with full statistical context and source provenance.
Social Knowledge Exploration
A method of exploring institutional knowledge through structured conversational dialogue with data-grounded agents, enabling teams to pressure-test hypotheses and explore how concepts, messages, and product attributes interact with consumer evidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is THEUS and how does it work?

THEUS (Twin Human Experience Understanding System) is an AI-powered knowledge management platform built on Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK). It ingests your historical research — PDFs, surveys, panel results, sensory profiles — through a 4-stage pipeline that extracts atomic facts with page-level citations. Two AI assistants, Dr. Sinclair (Knowledge Explorer) and Dr. Reed (Social Explorer), then help teams synthesize, supplement, and explore that knowledge with full traceability.

How is THEUS different from prompting ChatGPT with research documents?

THEUS uses data-grounded knowledge agents trained on your actual institutional data, not generic AI responses. It features bidirectional knowledge modeling (connecting product and consumer knowledge), methodological rigor built by scientists with 30+ years in sensory research, and traceable evidence architecture where every claim is backed by a Fact ID with page-level citations. Generic AI produces plausible-sounding answers without provenance.

Is THEUS SOC 2 compliant?

Yes. THEUS operates on SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure with zero-persistence architecture. Data lives in volatile memory (RAM) only. Session data is auto-deleted after 24 hours, avatars after 72 hours. Authentication is OAuth-only (Google, Microsoft), and THEUS is GDPR and CCPA compliant. Your proprietary research data is never used to train AI models.

What can teams do with THEUS?

THEUS enables cross-study synthesis, research gap analysis, hypothesis exploration through conversational dialogue, knowledge visualization, and institutional memory retrieval. Teams can query decades of research in seconds, identify what the organization knows and where new fieldwork has the highest value, and build stakeholder-ready evidence trails.

What is a TKB file and how does knowledge ingestion work?

TKB (THEUS Knowledge Base) is a proprietary format created by a 4-stage multimodal pipeline: Normalize, Visual Understanding, Extract, and Validate. This pipeline processes uploaded research documents (up to 25MB) and generates 20–30 atomic facts per page with full statistical context, enabling grounded, traceable AI responses with page-level citations.

Who built THEUS?

THEUS is built by Aigora, a company founded in 2019 by Dr. John Ennis, a mathematician with 30+ years in sensory and consumer science, 50+ peer-reviewed publications, and 4 published books. Aigora is trusted by Fortune 500 companies including PepsiCo, Danone, General Mills, and Symrise.
