Provenance
Receipts before fluency.
A confident answer is not enough. Material claims keep their source, time, uncertainty, and revision history.
About KOR
Build the knowledge layer that
intelligence needs.
KOR is a research company building source-linked knowledge systems that keep learning as evidence and outcomes change.
The Bet
Better reasoning needs better knowledge.
The reasoning engines are becoming powerful and widely available. The neglected half is what they reason over: a clean, coherent, current account of the world.
KOR builds that knowledge layer. We gather broadly, resolve information into claims and relationships, test what can be tested, and surface what matters now. The long-term aim is more capable intelligence through better structure—not simply more data or a larger model.
Operating Principles
Trust is designed into the record.
Continuity
Improve the record.
Each query, correction, experiment, and observed outcome should make the underlying knowledge more coherent.
Validation
State the boundary of proof.
We test what can be tested, preserve assumptions, and distinguish supported evidence from universal truth.
Focus
Depth earns expansion.
We prove the shared system in demanding domains before extending it to the next one.
Contact
Research, data, or a difficult domain.
We want to work with people who own difficult knowledge problems and care whether the result survives contact with reality.
