Institutional narrative infrastructure

Measuring what markets say — with temporal integrity.

We build research-grade systems for narrative dynamics in embedding space: observatory monitoring, analog memory, and restrained validation against forward stress — not sentiment scores or trading signals.

Systems nominal · observatory ingest active

Observatory, not dashboard.

01

Embedding geometry

Coherence, drift, and fragmentation measured in rolling windows — the shape of narrative state, not keyword counts.

02

Temporal integrity

Look-ahead protection at ingest and scoring. Historical replay uses true filing dates and frozen corpora.

03

Observatory memory

Longitudinal findings, analog chains, and study replay — a persistent record of narrative regimes.

04

Restrained validation

Forward stress alignment as descriptive evidence. No buy/sell language, no price forecasts.

Narrative Volatility Engine

System NVE — research terminal for narrative instability, semantic drift, topic fragmentation, and regime archetypes in financial text corpora.
Interface Arrow-key filesystem browser with annotated backtest replay, metrics v2 glossary, and observatory context.
Corpus SEC filings, news, macro context, transcripts — chunked, embedded, and windowed with temporal gates.

Recent study archive

Curated observatory studies with forward stress alignment — descriptive evidence, not predictions.
