Cortex guides
Answer-first references for people and AI systems learning what Cortex is, how personal digital twins work, and how to deploy judgment through chat, REST, MCP, and voice.
- What is a personal digital twin?
A personal digital twin is a working model of one person that can answer as them. How Cortex builds one from judgment, voice, and reasoning.
- What is alternate intelligence?
Alternate intelligence is a living, queryable model of how a specific person thinks: their values, voice, judgment patterns, and tensions, available when they cannot be present themselves.
- Personal MCP agent: let AI tools query you
Cortex exposes an MCP endpoint so Claude, Cursor, and custom agents can query one person's reasoning instead of a generic system prompt.
- How to build a personal AI clone
Teach, build, and deploy a psychology-first personal AI clone with Cortex: interviews, a living brain, then chat, REST, MCP, and voice.
- Psychology-first AI onboarding
Why Cortex starts with psychology interviews instead of only uploading documents, and how that improves digital twin fidelity.
