- ✗ No one remembers who was right

Principles
Our Philosophy
Privacy First
Your judgments and beliefs are personal. We prioritize your privacy and give you full control over your data.
Evidence-Based
Our approach is grounded in research from psychology, behavioral economics, and decision science.
Continuous Learning
We believe that everyone can improve their judgment through deliberate practice and systematic feedback.
Why We Built Takebook
We were tired of a world where loud opinions win and accurate ones are forgotten. Social media rewards noise. Takebook rewards judgment.
Vote on takes across any topic, track real outcomes, and build a permanent record of how well you understand the world.
