# DebateTalk

> DebateTalk is a multi-model AI debate platform that runs structured debates between leading AI models — Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, and others — to surface stronger, more trustworthy answers to high-stakes questions.

Instead of asking one AI and hoping it's right, DebateTalk makes multiple models argue independently, challenge each other's reasoning, and converge on a synthesis. The debate protocol is grounded in MIT, DeepMind, ACL 2024, A-HMAD 2025, and ICLR 2025 research.

## How it works

The platform runs a 6-phase structured debate protocol:

1. **Classification** - The question is classified by type (Factual, Normative, Business, Prediction, Brainstorm, Belief) to route the best-matched models.
2. **Blind round** - Models answer independently before seeing each other, preventing anchoring bias.
3. **Deliberation** - Models read each other's positions and revise their reasoning across up to 3 rounds.
4. **Consensus check** - An adjudicator scores alignment across stance, evidence, framework, and confidence.
5. **Synthesis** - A synthesis model produces a 4-part structured output: Strong Ground, Fault Lines, Blind Spots, and Your Call.
6. **Accuracy evaluation** - A FREE-MAD-style evaluation scores factual grounding and reasoning quality.

The platform preserves genuine disagreement rather than merging it away. The "Fault Lines" section is a core deliverable, not a footnote.

## Key features

- Smart model routing - selects the highest-scoring models per question domain automatically
- Blind round prevents models from anchoring on the first answer
- Vagueness penalty - downweights claims that broaden to dodge disagreement
- Paste-as-attachment support for large documents (PRs, reports, contracts)
- MCP integration and REST API (waitlist open)
- EU AI Act ready; SOC 2 and HIPAA available on Enterprise
- Ephemeral Mode (Enterprise) - zero debate content stored server-side
- Free tier: 5 debates/day, no credit card required
