opsci.ai
Opsci.ai develops advanced AI-fueled data processing methodologies for opinion analysis, risk assessment, and innovation benefiting the common good.
Pursuing the hope of a useful digital democracy, resistant to informational threats, the startup believes in a ‘whole-of-society’ approach, contributing to joint projects with universities, research laboratories, medias, NGOs, companies and institutions, both publicly and privately funded.
In a post-pandemic, post-climate change, post-Internet and post-truth world, social panics intensify. From misunderstanding to backlash, cultural battles saturate media space, sour public debate and stoke fears. Mixing hard and soft science, opsci.ai’s researchers and consultants decipher informational threats and decode our narrative society.
