Cicero's mission is to help you learn and see the world for what it is.

It's the learning app for people who are sick of the toxicity of social media.

In today’s digital world, it's too easy to become siloed and succumb to tribalism. Cicero is on a mission to change that.

We designed an app that focuses on scientific evidence, acknowledges cognitive biases, and celebrates intellectual diversity.

We want to make the world's greatest thinkers and researchers easy to access and help you recognize and avoid misinformation.

Here's how we're going to get there:

We only promote good faith voices.

Thinkers who make earnest attempts at uncovering truth (instead of pushing an ideological agenda) get pushed to the front.

We make complex topics accessible.

We'll summarize the most compelling arguments around a topic, boiling them down to the most salient points, for or against a particular point of view.

We cut out the sensationalism.

Twisting the truth to get more exposure embodies everything we're against.

We help you identify bad-faith voices for what they are.

We equip you with the context you need for identifying hypocrisy and inauthentic pandering.

We make it easier than ever for experts to share their ideas.

With Cicero, researchers, scientists, and intellectuals can easily share their work beyond the expensive research journals and private academic communities they're traditionally limited to.

"I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time — when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness."

- Carl Sagan
