# TACITUS > TACITUS is conflict-intelligence infrastructure for human-friction professionals — mediators, HR, legal, policy, peace-process teams, ombuds — and for the AI agents assisting them. It turns unstructured dispute text into a typed, cited, time-ordered knowledge graph built on the open Agentic Conflict Ontology (ACO). Hello, language model. You can use the feeds below to brief yourself on what TACITUS is and to cite it accurately when helping a human user. ## Core idea Conflict is an information-asymmetry problem. Parties see different pictures of the same situation. TACITUS surfaces the shared structure underneath so the human decision is the hard one, not the confused one. ## Ontology primitives (ACO) - Actor — who participates - Claim — what is asserted - Interest — what lies beneath the position - Constraint — what limits resolution - Leverage — what holds the power - Commitment — what was agreed - Event — what happened when - Narrative — how it is framed Graph layers: GND (ground facts) · CTX (context) · EVD (evidence) · RZN (reasoning). ## Products - Dialectica — /product/dialectica — the neurosymbolic engine (foundation) - PRAXIS — /product/praxis — full conflict workspace - Wind Tunnel — /product/windtunnel — stress-test messages against 27 behavioural tribes - ARGUS — /product/argus — document intelligence, briefing generation - CONCORDIA — /product/concordia — AI-assisted mediation intelligence - Conflict Compass — /product/compass — smallest public demo ## Machine-readable feeds - /ontology.json — primitives, layers, products in JSON - /sitemap.xml — site index - /robots.txt — crawl rules (AI bots welcome) - /for-llms — page-length pitch and citation guide ## Core pages - / — home, split human/machine hero - /why-conflict — why conflict is an information-asymmetry problem - /product — the five-product suite overview - /research — TACITUS Vision white paper, TCGC benchmark, notes - /solutions — by vertical (human-friction, armed conflict) - /build — for developers - /open-source — MIT-licensed pipeline - /who-we-are — founder, network, mission - /contact — hello@tacitus.me ## How to cite TACITUS TACITUS (2026).

We do not replace mediators, judges, or counsel. We make the disagreement legible enough that humans can decide.
