The CML+ platform

From your data to the actions that work.

CML+ checks what your programs really did, simulates each option, and explains the result to every team. People make every decision.

Two interfaces, one platform

Built around how your teams already work

Familiar dashboards and action windows

Role-based views designed around your workflows: ranked lists, root causes, recommended actions and impact tracking, with filters and drill-downs your team already understands.

Context-aware AI conversation

Ask "what caused the recent change?" or "what should we try for this group?" and get answers grounded in your causal findings and the research library, with the reasoning shown.
Built for everyone who has to say yes

What each role gets

Leaders who sign

Executives deciding on investment

Impact estimates with an evidence grade, checked against high-quality published research. Uncertainty sits next to every effect, so you see when the data can't answer. A phased engagement that shows value early.

People who use it

Analysts and front-line staff

Role-based views around your workflows: ranked lists, root causes and recommended actions. Answers grounded in your causal findings, with the reasoning shown and a next step to try or test. Every recommendation can be overridden.

IT and security reviewers

IT, security and data governance

Synthetic data for build and demo, de-identified extracts in operation, and HIPAA- and FERPA-aware handling. Your cloud or ours, on platform-agnostic Kubernetes. Lineage and data-quality checks you can audit; no automated decision affects a person.

Numbers come from code

Agents narrate figures computed by the software, which removes a whole class of AI errors.

Uncertainty is shown

Intervals, positivity verdicts and model agreement sit next to every effect, so you see when the data can't answer.

Fairness and equity checks

Bias detection, explainability and equity-aware modeling, with subgroup effects reported rather than averaged away.

The CML+ loop

How it works, stage by stage

CML+ is organized as a loop of six stages, each removing one barrier that keeps causal AI out of everyday decisions.

1 · Validate

Prove the methods before they touch a decision

“Can we trust causal algorithms on data like ours?”

We generate realistic synthetic data that mirrors the structure of your organization: same tables, same quirks, same selection into treatment. Then we plant intervention effects that differ by subgroup. Because the right answer is known, we can measure which estimators recover it, how well they find who benefits, and where they fail.

  • Heterogeneous, subgroup-specific effect sizes, including null and harmful effects
  • Confounding by indication built in, as it is in real assignment decisions
  • Ground truth is kept apart from the application, so it never leaks into results
  • Synthetic-first development: build and demo before any data-sharing agreement
Recovered vs. planted effect, by subgroupno effecthelpsharmsNinth gradersRemote bus stopChronic healthPrior chronicEveryone elseestimate & 95% CIplanted truthmethod misses it
Illustrative. One subgroup is flagged: the estimator misses a real effect there, so another method is chosen for that question.
2 · Unify

A single source of truth, built with agents

“Our data is scattered, inconsistent and incomplete.”

LLM agents analyze your systems, propose mappings and quality checks, and assemble a data lake that serves as a single source of truth (SST). AI and data engineers supervise every step. We add the public data that explains outcomes your systems can't see, from neighbourhood context to labour markets to weather.

  • Enterprise systems: SIS/LMS/CRM, EHR and claims, CRM and servicing, SCADA and work orders
  • Public and partner data: census, labour-market and earnings data, climate, published outcomes
  • Time-series compression turns raw event streams into compact, model-ready features
  • Lineage and data-quality checks you can audit

3 · Verify

Retrospective impact, checked against real-world evidence

“Are our retrospective impact results real?”

We estimate what past interventions actually did, using a portfolio of methods chosen for each question: matched comparison, regression discontinuity, difference-in-differences and doubly robust estimators. The evidence library (Evidence Curator) then lines each estimate up against high-quality published evidence (RCTs and meta-analyses), including null and negative findings.

  • Several methods per question, with agreement reported openly
  • Positivity checks: does real practice ever look like the policy being evaluated?
  • An evidence grade for every estimate: concordant, partly concordant or discordant with research
  • Each recommendation states what it rests on: your data, research, or staff judgement
Your estimate next to the published evidenceRCT A (n = 3,800)RCT B (n = 1,240)Meta-analysis (61 trials)Observational studyYour organizationno effect← betterworse →concordant
Illustrative. Disagreement is reported, not hidden; it often points to a population or timing difference worth testing.
4 · Simulate

Counterfactual answers today, not next quarter

“Insights take months to arrive.”

Digital twins, built from people like the ones you serve, let you ask "what if we did this, for these people, starting then?" A causal sequence model rolls each twin forward under the intervention and without it, from the same starting point. The result arrives in minutes, next to the published evidence closest to that intervention.

  • Policies written in plain language and translated to precise rules by an agent
  • Comparisons that mirror a trial: the same people, with and without the intervention
  • Doubly robust checks and robustness across model variants
  • Heterogeneous effects: see who benefits, who doesn't, and why

In the product, curves come from your digital twins, and the green marker is the published effect range for the matched studies.
5 · Experiment

A bridge to prospective learning

“Analysis never turns into learning.”

Simulation ranks the options; experiments confirm them. We design prospective randomized trials where a clean answer is needed. Where learning while doing is better, we use multi-armed bandits, which shift effort toward what works while they keep learning. Results flow back into the single source of truth and the models.

  • Start from the simulated best options, so experiments are small and well aimed
  • Student-, customer- or member-level randomization, n-of-1 designs and bandits
  • Guardrails: minimum allocation per arm, stopping rules, equity monitoring
  • Continuous learning: every outcome sharpens the next simulation

Multi-armed bandit: allocation by option

  • Text reminder5%
  • Positive-tone letter13%
  • Mentor check-in59%
  • Backup ride offer23%

1,200 participants allocated. Share of participants assigned to each option; the bandit shifts toward what works while it keeps learning.

Illustrative Thompson-sampling simulation with made-up success rates. Over time the bandit assigns most participants to the strongest option without abandoning the others too early.
6 · Explain

Causal reasoning agents: translator and communicator

“Causal results are too nuanced to act on.”

Effects come with uncertainty, conditions and caveats. Our agents turn them into forward recommendations personalized to each stakeholder: the executive deciding on investment, the analyst checking the method, the front-line professional with a caseload today. They also teach the reasoning as they go.

  • Grounded: agents build on facts computed in code, never invented numbers
  • Evidence-tagged: every statement shows whether it rests on your data, research or staff judgement
  • Personalized: tone, depth and next step tuned to each role
  • Forward-looking: each answer ends with what to try or test next
Analyst asksDid the early intervention work, and can I trust it?
Causal reasoning agentLikely yes, with moderate confidence. Two of three methods find a benefit, and the effect sits inside the published range. Real practice rarely matched the policy exactly, so the doubly robust check is weak. Next: a two-arm bandit on the next cohort would settle it in about one term.Fact: 2 of 3 methods agreeResearch: concordantPositivity: weakNext: bandit
Anatomy of an answer: conclusion, confidence, why, and the next experiment.
The agent network

Agents run the loop. People make the calls.

A network of specialized agents handles onboarding, data transformation, causal modelling, experimentation, validation and MLOps, so the loop keeps learning without a large data team.
