CommonGround is an AI-native intelligence company. We build and operate live-intelligence systems for a single mission: finding the relevant signals, building the datasets that don’t yet exist, and turning them into a continuously updated system shaped around the decisions your team needs to make.

Off-the-shelf platforms ship standardized feeds for common use cases. Consultants deliver reports that go out of date as soon as they ship. General-purpose AI only summarizes what’s already accessible. CommonGround builds and operates the specific intelligence system your question requires, and keeps it live as conditions change.

High-stakes questions that no off-the-shelf dataset can answer, across trust and societal, global health, and security and operational intelligence. For example: how a hostile narrative is spreading across languages, what’s disrupting access to essential medicines, or what emerging events could threaten your people, facilities, and operations.

We work directly with your team to define the mission, the geographies and actors that matter, and how intelligence should reach you. We then find the signals, apply our platform of models, maps, narrative trackers, forecasts, alerts, and a mission-specific AI analyst, and operate and improve the system continuously.

We discover, collect, translate, deduplicate, geolocate, and connect fragmented information from sources such as local news, radio, social media, government documents, research, and community reporting, often across many languages, into a single live, mission-specific feed.

Yes. Unlike a static report, a CommonGround system runs continuously: it adds new sources, updates the data, refines the models, reassesses conclusions, and expands coverage as the environment changes. A static report goes obsolete; a live system compounds in value.

CommonGround was founded by Fred Morstatter, PhD (CEO) and Abel Salinas, PhD (CTO), who lead a team building AI-native intelligence systems for organizations operating in complex, fast-changing environments.

Most engagements begin with a short call to talk through the question your team is facing. From there, we scope and stand up a live system around your mission. You can book a demo at cal.com/common-ground/30min.
