Transforming Social Networks into Sensemaking Networks

Social media is a vital information source for researchers, but knowledge is buried in noisy feeds and fragmented across platforms. Cosmik builds tools to unlock and amplify this knowledge, powered by semantics, AI, and human collective intelligence.

Collective Sensemaking

The Missing Link in Research

The explosion of open science and social media has transformed how research is shared. But more access to information hasn't solved a fundamental challenge: making sense of it all.

Sensemaking is how we bridge that gap, through the process of structuring and synthesizing information into knowledge. Science is a collective human sensemaking endeavor, but our current research tools are geared towards individuals.

That’s why Cosmik is transforming social networks into Collective Sensemaking Networks, a new kind of social media for researchers.

Traditional social media platforms limit the potential of shared research insights. Cosmik leverages knowledge graphs and AI to make these insights discoverable, reusable, and scalable

Unlike standard social posts, Cosmik's semantic posts act as knowledge legos, allowing researchers to express ideas in structured, machine-readable formats. Our AI assistant seamlessly converts regular posts into semantic posts, powering Hyperfeed—a next-generation research discovery system.
