Introducing objective viewpoints, slowly, for long term impact

Our Approach

We’re assessing and optimising how the combination of behavioural psychology, targeted social influence, programmatic advertising and dynamic emotional content can be used to gradually introduce objective viewpoints within sceptical digital spaces. Encouraging audiences to re-evaluate their beliefs, without putting anyone on the defensive. 

Rather than relying on fact-checking or countering falsehoods directly (which can trigger cognitive resistance), we adopt a different approach by subtly restoring trust in fact-based information over time. 

Together with researchers and digital marketing experts, we seek to repurpose commercial-grade digital marketing techniques for positive societal impact 

Subtle methods

Nudging, programmatic advertising

Targeted influencing

Inside digital communities and echo chambers

Personalised content 

Dynamic ads that resonate, emotional narratives

Why we believe it works 

The approaches we redevelop for societal impact are research-backed, data-driven, emotionally engaging and adaptable. Designed for long-term, measurable impact
