Discover our mission

Cognitive psychology,
connected to artificial intelligence.

Cognitive psychology offers ways to understand how people interpret information, make decisions, and respond to one another. That perspective can open new questions about the behavior of artificial intelligence.

Lapis is building the connection layer between these fields. Our aim is to help people bring psychological insight, creativity, intuition, and interpersonal understanding into AI research and evaluation.

Human insight.
New avenues for research.

A shared foundation for understanding, testing, and working with AI.

Interpret behavior

Use perspectives from cognitive psychology to ask better questions about how AI responds, approaches decisions, and interacts with people.

Psychological insight

Broaden participation

Make room for creativity, social perception, emotional understanding, and lived expertise alongside coding and analytical reasoning.

More forms of human intelligence

Enable experimentation

Help researchers develop new trials of AI behavior. Labs could use this connection to study persuasion, social pressure, or misleading responses in their own evaluations and red-team work.

Research and evaluation

The future of AI
needs more of us.

A psychologist may notice a pattern in communication. An educator may recognize how a response changes with context. A creative practitioner may find a question a conventional test would miss.

By connecting cognitive psychology with AI, we want to make that range of human intelligence useful to research, experiments, and collaboration. The connection is what we provide; the questions people explore can go much further.
