●  Ed. 001 — Against AI sycophancy

Your AI keeps telling you what you want to hear.

Consilium gives you a team instead.

Consilium turns AI into specialized advisory teams. Each team is a group of professionals with different judgment styles — they challenge your assumptions, organize the problem, pressure-test your logic, and produce a clear recommendation. Browse ready-built teams for common decisions, or commission a custom team for your exact problem.

02The product

A Consilium Team is not a chatbot.

It’s a fully-designed advisory team — 5 to 6 distinct professionals with biographies, judgment styles, and internal tensions. The AI runs the team. You run the conversation.

⚡

Multiple voices, not one.

Each team has distinct professionals who push back on each other. Pressures your assumptions. Organizes the problem. Stress-tests feasibility. Forces clarity. Keeps the room honest.

◆

Built to be used.

You buy a calibrated team — biographies, habits of judgment, internal culture. You experience it as a real advisory session.

◎

Built to produce, not to chat.

Each session ends with something concrete: a recommendation, a memo, a decision matrix, a risk review, a scenario plan. Not a wandering conversation that fades out.

04Method proof

Same AI. Very different thinking.

Consilium changes the structure of the conversation: more pressure, more contrast, clearer decisions.

Plain AI
YOU
I'm launching a new product next quarter. My current plan feels solid, but I'm worried I might be overlooking something critical. Every time I ask my AI, it just confirms the plan is great.
ASSISTANT · PLAIN AI
Looks solid. You might A/B test pricing, tighten the launch email sequence, and add a community angle. Overall, this feels like a strong plan.

YOU

C · THE CHALLENGER
Your plan depends on a feature users may not care about. Your core loop dies after 90 seconds. That is the biggest risk and nothing addresses it.
S · THE STRATEGIST
You're trying to ship fast, go broad, and validate deeply on the same budget. Pick one.
R · THE REALIST
Two engineers, six weeks. This is a nine-week plan for four. One of those numbers is wrong.
O · THE OPERATOR
Who answers support on day one? If you can't answer in a sentence, you're not launching — you're publishing.

Different roles examine the decision from different angles.

03

Tradeoff analysis

Options are compared against constraints and consequences.

04

Clear recommendation

The session pushes toward a decision you can use.

09FAQ

Common questions.

What exactly am I buying — A subscription? A tool?
You're buying a Consilium Team — a designed advisory team packaged as a file you paste into ChatGPT or Claude. It's not a single prompt. It contains professional biographies, judgment styles, internal tensions, and session culture that the AI uses as instructions. You experience it as an advisory session with five distinct professionals. Once you have a team, you can use it for any number of decisions in its scope — it's not single-use.
Do I need ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. Consilium Teams are designed to run inside ChatGPT or Claude through the Consilium Bar.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. Install the Consilium Bar and use two free Consilium Teams forever. No account, no payment, no subscription.
What if no Ready-Built team fits my situation?
Two options. (1) Commission a Custom Consilium Team — you fill a brief intake describing your problem, role, stakes, and desired output, and we build a 5-person team calibrated to your exact situation. Delivered in 24 hours. (2) For more complex problems — regulated, technical, evidence-driven, or jurisdictional — commission a Specialized Team, which includes 1–2 domain experts on top of the standard 5 roles.
What happens after I buy a team?
Your team appears in your Consilium Bar, where you can launch it inside ChatGPT or Claude whenever you need it.
Are the testimonials on this page from real users?
Yes, with one honest clarification. Consilium is in private beta. The people quoted on this page tested specific teams before our public launch. They are real people who used real versions of the product. We chose not to fabricate experience we don't have. We also chose not to hide that we're early. We'd rather earn trust honestly than borrow it dishonestly.
Is this a subscription?
No. Ready-built, Custom, and Specialized Consilium Teams are one-time purchases unless a future product explicitly says otherwise.
Is my data private? Does Consilium train on my decisions?
No. Your inputs, decisions, and Consilium outputs are never used to train any AI model — ours or the underlying providers'. We treat what you think about as private by default. You can delete your history at any time from your account settings.
