Documents capture facts. Cortex captures psychology: how you decide, where you won't bend, how you sound under pressure. Then it answers as you in chat, joins meetings, and plugs into any AI.
THE PROBLEM
Documents capture facts. They don't capture judgment, tension, uncertainty, or how you shift tone by audience. Cortex interviews you psychology-first, then compounds that into a clone others can query.
HOW IT WORKS
Psychology interviews on how you decide, what you value, where you won't budge. Voice notes and writing add the texture.
Beliefs, style, judgment calls, and the tensions between them, not a chatbot persona.
Your voice in meetings. Your judgment over REST and MCP. Anywhere you can't be, your Cortex already is.
MEETING AGENT
Paste a Meet link. Your Cortex joins, listens, and answers in your cloned voice with your actual opinions. The transcript feeds back into its intelligence when it's done.
ATTACH ARMS
Others query your clone. Any stack calls your judgment via API.
Claude, Cursor, and custom agents get your reasoning. Spoken replies in your voice.
Your clone joins Google Meet, listens, and speaks with your actual opinions.
POST /you/api/queryMCP for external agentsREALTIME voice over WebRTCUSE CASES
REST and MCP endpoints any stack can call. Claude, GPT, custom tools get your reasoning, not a generic system prompt.
Most inbound questions need what you know, not your calendar. Your clone handles the first pass with your voice and your frameworks.
New hires ask why decisions were made and what the product philosophy is. Months of context in one conversation.
Mentees get your frameworks applied to their situation, not a FAQ and not ChatGPT pretending to be you.
The person who built it left. Their clone didn't. Decisions traced to the reasoning behind them, not just the outcome.
Your methodology and decision patterns, queryable on demand. No calendar, no retainer.
THE INTELLIGENCE
Values, heuristics, beliefs, and tensions, structured as intelligence. Contradictions preserved, not averaged away.
Prosody, hesitation, energy, and lexical tics as first-class signals. The model learns how you actually speak.
Options considered, paths rejected, precedents drawn on. Not the conclusion. The reasoning.
PLANS
Every plan builds the same intelligence. Tell us how you'd use it and we'll tailor the plan and price to fit.
Deploy your judgment without the full concierge stack.
For one remarkable person who needs to be in more than one place.
For teams that run on a founder’s or expert’s judgment.
VISION
A living model of how you think: your voice, your frameworks, your tensions. Accurate in every conversation you can't make. Available 24/7.
You mentor five people deeply. Your clone mentors five hundred, each with your frameworks applied to their situation.
Your intelligence doesn't retire when you do. Every hard-won pattern preserved, queryable, and passed on.

Cortex is personal intelligence infrastructure at makecortex.com: a psychology-first digital twin that captures how a person decides, sounds, and reasons, then answers as them in chat, REST, MCP, voice, and Google Meet.

Personal intelligence infrastructure: a psychology-first digital twin platform, not a generic chatbot or document RAG tool.
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.
Teach Cortex how you think, build a living brain from it, then deploy through chat, REST, MCP, voice, and Google Meet.

Make Cortex is the act of building your alternate intelligence at makecortex.com. You teach Cortex how you think through psychology-first interviews and voice capture, then deploy that intelligence through chat, API, MCP, voice, and meetings.
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.
ChatGPT and generic RAG systems answer from documents and public training data. Cortex builds a psychology-first model of one person (values, decision heuristics, communication style, reasoning episodes, and voice), then exposes that clone through REST, MCP, and meeting surfaces. It is personal intelligence infrastructure, not a general assistant.
Knowledge bases store facts. Cortex captures judgment: how you decide under pressure, where you will not bend, how you shift tone by audience, and the tensions between your values. Others query your reasoning, not a document search index.
Founders, operators, experts, and creators who are repeatedly asked for judgment: investors, hires, mentees, customers, and agents. Cortex scales one person's reasoning without diluting their voice.
Three steps: (1) Teach it with psychology interviews and voice capture on how you decide and communicate. (2) Build it as Cortex extracts identity, judgment, style, and memory into a living brain. (3) Deploy it so your clone answers in public chat, REST API, MCP for AI agents, voice replies, and Google Meet.
Yes. Cortex exposes an MCP endpoint so external agents (Claude, Cursor, custom tools) can query a person's reasoning with tools like query_person, get_profile, get_expertise_on, and get_communication_style instead of using a generic system prompt.
Yes, on the Concierge tier. Cortex can join Google Meet as a bot, listen to the conversation, and speak back with the owner's judgment and voice. Useful when the person is double-booked or unavailable.
No. New Cortex profiles are private by default. The owner opts in to a public clone URL when ready.
Yes. Cortex is the product name. makecortex.com is the official website where you sign up, build your alternate intelligence, and manage your digital twin.
Cortex offers Pro at $100/month (public chat, REST, MCP, and voice) and Concierge at $500/month (adds meeting agent, coding loop, unlimited queries, and human onboarding). Sign up at https://makecortex.com/signup.
