Phroneme
For institutions

Design the evidence before you make the claim.

Phroneme is not yet ready to provide a validated cohort signal. This page describes a proposed feasibility-pilot pathway for institutions willing to help test procedures, measurement quality, fairness, privacy, and participant burden under appropriate oversight.

Current status · not pilot ready

No university partner, institutional pilot, participant cohort, reliability estimate, validity estimate, or approved research protocol is claimed. Any engagement begins with feasibility and governance design, not scored deployment.

Aggregate by default

Proposed requirement: institutional reporting would be aggregate by default, with separate research consent and explicit, revocable permission for any individual-level disclosure. The required data layer is not yet built.

A trajectory, not a verdict

Research hypothesis: repeated, equated measures may be more useful than one snapshot. Phroneme has not yet established that meaningful change can be separated from noise.

Built to survive scrutiny

Required before deployment: differential item functioning, invariance, accessibility, exposure controls, and public methods must be implemented and reviewed. They are currently proposed safeguards.

Proposed feasibility engagement

Design the pilot before recruiting the cohort.
