I'm actively researching and cataloging various kinds of projects relating to decision-support, deliberation, sense-making, and reasoning. Some example categories include:
Deliberative Democracy Tools - Systems for structured citizen participation, including participatory budgeting platforms and stakeholder engagement tools
Argument Mapping & Visualization - Platforms for making reasoning explicit and visually representing dialectical structures
Deep Thinking Environments - Slow media and platforms designed for thoughtful engagement rather than rapid interaction
Belief Tracking Systems - Tools for attestation, commitment to positions, and tracking belief revision over time
Bayesian & Evidential Reasoning Frameworks - Platforms that make probabilistic thinking explicit and support coherent belief updating
Epistemic Communities - Networks and platforms with explicit norms for truth-seeking and intellectual humility
Structured Dialogue Systems - Tools supporting deep listening and methodical conversation beyond typical messaging platforms
Cooperative Governance Frameworks - Sociocratic, holacratic, and other systems for managing shared resources and decision-making
Knowledge Synthesis & Curation - Tools for collaborative sense-making with quality controls beyond popularity metrics
Decision Support Systems - Frameworks making decision processes explicit, including values clarification and cognitive debiasing
Consensus-Building Methodologies - Approaches for finding agreement through structured deliberation rather than voting or averaging
Collaborative Forecasting - Platforms for collective prediction and long-term thinking across groups
Distributed Sense-Making - Tools enabling groups to develop shared understanding of complex issues
Platform Cooperativism - Digital platforms owned and governed by their users/workers rather than external shareholders
Solidarity Economy Infrastructure - Tools supporting mutual aid, community wealth building, and non-extractive economics
