METAMATICS // NON-PROFIT · CIVILIZATION-SCALE RESEARCH & BUILDING

We build the instruments a civilization needs to think about itself.

Metamatics is a Czech non-profit. We do science with agents, we build open tools that show how a country actually works, and we teach people to think, create and build.

SECTION_01 // WHY NOW

The distance between a thought and its execution has collapsed.

Agents now read the literature, write the code, run the experiment and draft the paper. A society that can execute almost anything has to get much better at three things: knowing what is true, knowing how it actually works, and deciding what is worth doing.

The bottleneck has moved from capacity to judgment.

Three consequences
01
When output becomes easy, discernment becomes scarce.
02
When persuasion becomes cheap, truth becomes fragile.
03
When generating findings becomes cheap, verifying them is the science.
“A wealth of information creates a poverty of attention.”Herbert A. Simon, 1971
SECTION_02 // THE MISSION

Advance science. Make the country legible. Teach people to think.

Metamatics exists so that the agentic era produces more understanding, not just more output. We work where the public benefit is high and no market pays for the work.

Science

Agents that do research end to end, and proof that what they find is true. Our lab at CTU is built around one number: the cost of a verified finding.

State & democracy

Open instruments that show what goes well in Czechia, how healthy its democracy is, where an argument really disagrees, and what a policy will actually do.

Mind & education

A school of public-interest software, a learning agent for scientific thinking, a platform that shows how people think, and an honest resource on neurodivergence.

SECTION_03 // THE METHOD

Evidence first. Public by default.

question → sources → instrument → verification → public
“When thinking is free, the builder's job moves from making things possible to making them worthy of being believed.”Sixteen Principles
Four principles
◈
Every number says where it came from.
Taken from a register, calculated by us, or missing, and the screen says which.
◈
Code is the referee, the model only writes.
A proof checker, a rerun with fresh seeds, a register lookup. A finding the checker rejects is not published.
◈
The problem has an owner before the code exists.
We build for a named person or institution that wants the tool.
◈
Publish the unfinished.
An idea kept in a drawer helps nobody. Saying what you are stuck on finds collaborators.
SECTION_04 // THE MAP
SECTION_05 // ČESKÝ INDEX · STATE & DEMOCRACY
Český index LIVE

What is actually going well
in Czechia.

Czech media report what went wrong. Most of what goes right is never reported: a Brno startup closing a round, a village finishing its school, a lab winning an ERC grant. The people who did those things post about it themselves.

Český index reads those first-hand sources every morning, checks them against official registers where it can, and publishes an attributed feed of good news.

Each item shows how we know it is true.

SECTION_06 // ARTIFICIAL SCIENTIST · SCIENCE
Artificial Scientist RESEARCH LAB

Science by agents.
Findings you can verify.

Generation is no longer the bottleneck in science; trust is. AI scientists are now in Nature, but the audits show the failures: one system called every one of its own ideas novel, and 57% of its manuscripts contained wrong or hallucinated numbers.

The Agentic Science Lab at CTU (ČVUT) builds a research loop that can only report a finding once an independent checker accepts it: a proof checker, a rerun with fresh seeds, or data the loop never saw.

The headline metric: cost per verified finding.

Status: in formation, applying for the ČVUT Starting Grant. Flagship field: mathematics, where proofs are checked by machine.

Science Map, the lab's first public tool: an atlas of 150 papers on recursive language models, grouped into eight research areas.
Three work packages
01
The verified research loop
Question, literature map, hypotheses, preregistration, experiment, independent verification, write-up with the full trace.
02
A measurement science for AI scientists
Variance protocols, contamination checks, and a trace auditor that reads what the agent did, not just what it wrote.
03
Replication at scale
The loop reruns published computational papers, starting with CTU's own, and reports which results hold.
SECTION_07 // DEMOCRACYWATCH · STATE & DEMOCRACY
DemocracyWatch PROTOTYPE

Democracy health,
measured live.

A hundred aspects of democracy and a hundred institutions that carry it, tracked against the documented mechanics of how democracies erode.

Live scores are reconciled against the V-Dem, Freedom House and EIU baselines. Every threat is followed as a storyline, with its severity and a historical precedent, and each one is wired to a concrete action a citizen can take.

Erosion is documented. So watch for it.

DemocracyWatch dashboard: democracy health measured across 30 dimensions, with countries tracked, active threats, capture alerts and a country monitor.

SECTION_08 // KREATICAL · MIND & EDUCATION
Kreatical PROTOTYPE

Show what
you can think.

A platform where people think, make and publish with AI. What they make becomes visible proof of how they judge, what they notice and how they grow.

The person brings the judgment; the AI helps them make things, critiques the work and helps it travel. Over time the record opens doors to collaborators, clients, employers and co-founders.

Built on Axiocracy: the rule of value created, credited against goals agreed before the work begins.

Kreatical prototype: a Today board with pieces to continue, respond to, grow and discover, and a coach panel suggesting the next step.

SECTION_09 // DEBATEVIZ · STATE & DEMOCRACY
DebateViz LIVE

See the argument,
not the transcript.

It listens to a meeting or a debate and draws it as it happens: every claim, every objection, every open question and every decision, on one wall the whole room can see.

A public argument becomes visible as a structure: who claims what, on what evidence, and where the real disagreement sits.

The product is live as MeetViz.

MeetViz landing page: the headline 'See the argument, not the transcript' over a wall of claim cards drawn from a live conversation.

SECTION_10 // ECONOMY SIMULATOR · STATE & DEMOCRACY
Economy Simulator CONCEPT

Change a rule.
Watch what happens next.

Most policy papers model an economy their authors have never run. This is a sandbox built on how value is actually created: how products are made, sold and distributed, and how companies really work.

Change a policy and watch its second- and third-order effects run through the economy before anyone votes on it.

Policy tested before it is passed.

SECTION_11 // METAMATICS UNIVERSITY · MIND & EDUCATION
Metamatics University CURRICULUM

The school of
public-interest software.

Metamatics University teaches people to build not-for-profit software that helps Czechia, on our own projects: Český index, DemocracyWatch, audhd.cz, the Argumentation engine, the research libraries.

Each week pairs one way of thinking (find the owner of the problem, prove the number, steelman the other side, verify the output, measure the outcome) with a real case. Each exercise ships a real improvement to a real Czech tool.

A graduate leaves with a tool real users have used, a measured result, and a public defence of both.

SECTION_12 // LIMITLESS · SCIENCE
Limitless DESIGN

From curiosity to
scientific intelligence.

A conversational learning agent that takes a person from “I'm interested in this” to “I understand the mechanisms, can reason with them, question them and form my own hypotheses”, without hallucinated sources.

It is built on what the evidence says about teaching critical thinking, and on how science is actually practised.

Not a content app. A path to doing science.

The ladder
01
Curiosity

SECTION_13 // NOEVERSE · SCIENCE
Noeverse LIVE

See the argument.
Not the summary.

Most AI tools flatten a three-hour podcast into bullet points that erase every nuance.

Noeverse turns long-form video into a navigable argument graph. Every claim is tagged for how certain it is, every blind spot is named, and every quote is one click from the source.

Long-form thinking, made navigable.

Noeverse landing page: 'See the argument. Not the summary.', a comprehension engine for long-form video.

◈
Ten lenses
Ten ways to read one video.

Claims tagged for certainty
And every blind spot named.

SECTION_14 // UNCONSTRUCT · SCIENCE
Unconstruct PROTOTYPE

Decompress
any paper.

A research paper is compressed: it assumes you already know the field, the notation and the prior work.

Drop in a paper. Unconstruct researches the surrounding field, breaks every idea down to its atoms, re-explains the whole thing in very simple diagrams, then shows how it compares to its neighbours and where the field is heading.

A depth slider goes from researcher level down to “explain it like I'm five”.

Unconstruct library: a decomposed paper, 'Attention Is All You Need', with its atomic ideas mapped and diagrams generated.
How it works
  1. research the field
  2. break into atoms
  3. re-explain in diagrams
  4. compare and project
SECTION_15 // AUDHD.CZ · MIND & EDUCATION
audhd.cz LIVE

Living with a superpower
nobody understands.

A Czech neurodivergence platform. In the video series, a neuroscientist sits with a well-known neurodivergent guest, and every episode is published with its full transcript.

Research-backed essays sit alongside a symptom database with real-world examples and a literature review.

Pattern recognition at scale is not a disability. It is a design specification.

SECTION_16 // FORECAST · MIND & EDUCATION
Forecast CONCEPT

Plan backwards from
where you intend to end up.

Strategic planning by reverse reasoning. Instead of projecting forward from today, it asks where you intend to end up and what must be true at every step.

A tracker then detects when reality diverges from the plan. It is built for public bodies, NGOs and civic projects that have a goal and need to know early when they are drifting off it.

Know you are off course before it is too late to correct.

Forecast diagram: planning runs backwards from the end state to today, and a tracker flags the point where reality diverges from the plan. END STATE TODAY MUST BE TRUE ↯ DIVERGENCE ALERT
How it works
01

Every step back to today.
03
Track divergence
An alert when reality leaves the plan.
SECTION_17 // CANVAS BUILDER · STATE & DEMOCRACY
Canvas Builder PROTOTYPE

Compose a civic project
like a business model.

Someone brings a civic project they want to exist: a river clean-up, a register of empty buildings, a citizens' assembly on school reform. Together with an agent they compose it on a canvas of fixed blocks.

The agent fills each block from a researched library of proven options. The owner locks what they like, marks what must change, and regenerates until the project is right.

Bring us a project.
