Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to every question.

Clear, unvarnished explanations about how the measurement works, how data is sealed in the Reality Bank, and how we protect privacy.

What is Democrez in one sentence?

Democrez is a measurement platform that records how far your predictions about human choices diverge from what real people actually did in identical situations.

What is the Gap?

The Gap is the numerical difference between your forecast of collective behavior and the sealed aggregate from the Reality Bank. A lower gap means a sharper model of how people behave.

Does Democrez judge or score whether my personal choices are right?

Never. Democrez is a mirror, not a judge. There are no right or wrong moral choices on our cards; every card is gray vs gray with defensible, costly trade-offs.

Where does the aggregate data come from?

From real, anonymous individuals answering situations on Democrez. We never fabricate, simulate, or use synthetic AI data to generate crowd numbers.

What is Min-N and why is it enforced?

Min-N is the minimum sample threshold required before an aggregate is computed and revealed. This guarantees statistical validity and prevents individual de-anonymization.

Who writes and approves the situations?

Every card undergoes human editorial review and carries a Human Seal. We verify that each option is realistic, defensible, and written without leading bias.

Is my personal reading private?

Yes. Your individual selections and predictions are encrypted and completely decoupled from your personal identity. Aggregates are strictly anonymous.

How can colleges or organizations use Democrez?

Institutions run 45–60 minute Human Judgment Labs to understand cohort decision tendencies, bias distribution, and judgment diversity with full student privacy.
