A research platform for anomalous prospection.
Forced-choice trials under cryptographically tamper-evident conditions, contributing to an openly auditable dataset. No overclaiming. No dismissive skepticism. Just clean tools for an open question.
The integrity chain
three steps · pre → sign → reveal- 01
Pre-commit your choice
Select between two options before any outcome exists. Your choice is recorded at the moment you click — nothing is generated until after you commit.
AB - 02
Server-signed timestamp
The (choice, timestamp) tuple is HMAC-signed server-side before outcome generation. The signature is verifiable proof you chose first.
⌘HMAC-SHA256 - 03
Generate · record · audit
The client generates the random outcome via crypto.getRandomValues. The full trial — choice, signature, outcome — is stored with statistical provenance.
Approaching this skeptically?
We cite both supportive meta-analyses (Bem et al. 2015; Storm et al. 2023) and critical replication failures (Wagenmakers 2011; Maier 2020; Walleczek 2025).
Fathom takes no position on the underlying question. The platform exists to enable more rigorous data collection — not to argue a conclusion. Aggregate dataset is public; researcher API is open under a token.
