The question your roadmap turns on,answered by experts who get scored on being right.
Deep-tech decisions turn on questions nobody can look up — whether a synthesis route holds at scale, when a model class stops improving, how a climate signal resolves. Fund one, and domain experts commit to an answer before the outcome is known, scored with a strictly proper rule so the only winning strategy is an honest opinion. The same shape carries longer programmes: commissioned articles, community initiatives and weekend science hackathons, across research, health, career and reputation tracks. An external programme partner holds and releases the funds — Vocaid never custodies them. The wording and resolution criteria are fixed and published before any funding attaches. It is built, but switched off: nobody has used it yet. We are looking for the sponsors who would shape the first question queue.
- Scored with a strictly proper rule (Brier)
- You fund questions, never scores
- Built, but switched off — nobody has used it yet
- Materials, climate, epidemiology, ML, statistics
- Your own researchers can take part, free
- Research, health, career and reputation tracks
- An external partner holds the funds — never Vocaid
DeepSponsored questions — illustrative
We will send the question queue and the methods note before anything opens. No charge, and nothing to sponsor yet.
