We are a hybrid research and consulting group - from Data analytics, Linguistics, Natural Sciences, and Anthropology our firm draws from a large pool of methodologies to address diverse and complicated questions. This array of approaches allows us to find novel solutions for you.
Research
Comprehensive scholarly research and literature review. We assess the scope, requirements, and feasibility to properly frame your questions.
Analysis
Combining expert intuitions and advanced data analytics methods. Our exploratory analyses discover the metrics you need.

Reporting
Thorough and reproducible documentation of our analyses. Whether as presentation or report, we show our work.
The Question
We'll help you focus your question through an anthropological lens to identify all the possible latent social factors at play.
- Refine the scoping for your project and potential effects along social dimensions
- Review the feasibility of that scope with respect to practical sources of data, ethical and professional standards, and your organizational constraints
The Norms, the Normative, and Insititutional
Our expertise in social processes, interactions, and institutions can allow deeper analyses of causal relationships between socially organized patterns.
Combining the original project framing and data analyses, we will:
- Explore root causes and structuring relationships
- Distinguish between structured patterns and structuring processes
- Provide proof of concept modeling of those processes
- Identify analytical methods for hypothesis testing and evaluation
Ethical Analysis
Ethical integrity is both your priority and ours! We will not move forward with a project without performing a full consideration and communication of any ethical concerns and potential pitfalls.
At every step, we will:
- Research best practices in the question domain
- Assess ethical implications of the work, data, methods, and output
- Recommend strategies of reporting and monitoring that best practices are maintained
- Identify areas for "future-proofing" related practices to ensure continuous improvement

- Complete documentation and source data for all analyses
- Publication-ready summaries and reports of findings, prepared for either internal use or for external audiences
