The universal API for human taste.
Tiresias uses proprietary psychographic models to predict user preferences with zero historical data. 41% more accurate than collaborative filtering, from day one.
The Product
A new primitive for personalization
Tiresias replaces the endless hunger for user data with a single psychometric artifact: the T-score. Think of it as a Visa for data - one credential that works everywhere.
Psychometric Intelligence
Our proprietary T-score distills psychographic traits into a universal preference vector. One score to predict everything - from film taste to purchasing behavior. Patent pending.
Zero Cold Start
Unlike collaborative filtering, Tiresias doesn't need user history. We predict preferences from psychographic trait vectors alone - 41% better than baseline on day zero.
Universal Translation
The T-score is domain-agnostic. Recommend games from film history. Predict ad affinity from music taste. One model, infinite applications.
API-First Architecture
Tiresias V1.0 ships as a clean REST API. Integrate psychometric recommendations into your streaming platform, ad stack, or e-commerce engine in hours.
How It Works
From personality to prediction in milliseconds
Psychometric Profiling
Our models derive five anonymized psychographic traits from minimal digital signals. No PII. No browsing history. No cookies.
T-Score Computation
The proprietary T-score compresses your psychographic vector into a universal preference signature. One compact artifact that encodes how you respond to content.
Instant Recommendations
The T-score maps to our content graph in real-time. Film, TV, games, and more. 41% more accurate than collaborative filtering - with zero historical data.
"The next revolution will be psychological, not technological."
The Vision
Beyond recommendations. Beyond media.
Today, Tiresias V1.0 recommends film and TV. But the T-score is not a media metric - it is a human metric. The same psychographic vector that predicts your next favorite show can predict your savings habits, your ad response affinity, and your purchasing patterns.
Our ambition: become the default predictive replacement for cookies. One score. Every domain. No data required.
About Us
From Oxford lab to production API
Tiresias was born at the intersection of academic psychometrics and real-world data engineering. We believe the future of personalization is understanding people, not surveilling them.
Oxford Psychometrics
Founded by an Oxford psychologist specializing in psychometric measurement and personality theory - the science of quantifying human behavior.
Enterprise Data, F500 Scale
5+ years leading AI and data transformation for Fortune 500 companies. Saw firsthand how the industry's hunger for user data creates fragile, privacy-hostile systems.
The Insight
What if we didn't need more data - but better models of people? Applied decades of academic psychometric research to build a prediction engine that starts with who you are, not what you've clicked.
