Explore the right sidebar and Master Document as it plays. Scroll away to pause; scroll back when you’re ready and it picks up where you left off. Quorum AI and Suprmind both orchestrate structured deliberation across multiple frontier AI models. Both ship a parallel-deliberation method that runs independent answers, surfaces critique, and produces a synthesis (Quorum AI: Standard; Suprmind: Super Mind). Both ship formal debate (Quorum AI: Oxford; Suprmind: Debate). Both let you save sessions in project containers (Quorum AI: Dossiers; Suprmind: Projects). Both surface where models agree and where they disagree before the final answer reaches you.**What you also get on Suprmind:**Modes Quorum AI doesn’t ship — Sequential (each model reads prior responses and adds its own layer), Red Team with four explicit attack vectors, First Principles (strip assumptions, rebuild), and Research Symphony (multi-AI research pipeline, Enterprise). A Decision Validation Engine that turns analysis into a GO / NO-GO verdict with FMEA-style risk register. An Adjudicator that produces an independent decision brief synthesizing the full thread. DCI (Disagreement/Correction Index) tracking every disagreement and correction across the conversation. A Master Document Generator with 25+ professional templates exporting to PDF and DOCX — Investment Memo, Executive Brief, SWOT, Legal Brief, Research Paper, and 20 more. Project workspaces with an auto-extracted Knowledge Graph, plus Master Project for cross-workspace queries (Frontier+). Voice input and output. Managed EU and Switzerland data residency. Quorum AI’s seven academically grounded methods are genuinely distinctive — Delphi anonymous-round estimation (anti-anchoring bias), Tradeoff weighted multi-criteria scoring, and Socratic progressive questioning are decision-theory frameworks Suprmind doesn’t ship as named modes. The open-source CLI (BSL 1.1 transitioning to Apache 2.0 in 2029) is also a real differentiator for users who want to self-host or audit the deliberation logic. For founders and product / engineering decision-makers running structured deliberations on a tight budget — especially Delphi for forecasting or Tradeoff for vendor selection — Quorum AI earns its place. For decision work that produces deliverables, needs adversarial stress-testing beyond a single devil’s advocate, and benefits from a Decision Validation Engine plus a Master Document Generator, Suprmind is the better fit. THE COMPETITOR ## What is Quorum AI? Quorum AI is a multi-model AI deliberation platform at quorumai.dev — a web frontend built on top of an open-source CLI (quorum-cli) by solo developer “Detrol.” The pitch — direct from their homepage — is “one AI gives an answer, a council gives wisdom.” You pick a structured discussion method from seven academic frameworks (Standard, Oxford, Advocate, Socratic, Delphi, Brainstorm, or Tradeoff), a Voice Registry of up to 10 frontier models deliberates, and the platform produces a transcript with confidence-labeled final positions and a synthesis. The CLI is licensed under BSL 1.1 transitioning to Apache 2.0 in 2029. DISAMBIGUATION (May 2026) This comparison covers**quorumai.dev**— the multi-model deliberation platform built around the open-source quorum-cli. It is not the same brand as*Quorum AI Inc.*(a San Francisco IoT company, permanently closed) or*Quorum.us*(a public-affairs SaaS for legislative tracking). Three different products share the “Quorum AI” string in search results; this page is about the deliberation platform only. ### Quorum AI Methods -**Standard**– round-robin: independent answers + critique + synthesis -**Oxford**– formal proposition / opposition debate -**Advocate**– devil’s advocate single-voice contrarian -**Socratic**– progressive questioning -**Delphi**– anonymous rounds, anti-anchoring bias -**Brainstorm**– divergent → convergent ideation -**Tradeoff**– weighted multi-criteria scoring All seven methods are available on every tier. No named methods for sequential chain-of-models, multi-vector adversarial red-team stress-testing, first-principles deconstruction, or decision-validation pipelines. ### Company Details -**Brand:**Quorum AI (quorumai.dev) -**Solo developer:**“Detrol” (GitHub username) -**Founded:**2025 (CLI v1.1.5 Dec 25, 2025; web frontend 2026) -**HQ / legal entity:**Not publicly disclosed -**Funding:**Not publicly disclosed -**Open-source CLI:**quorum-cli (BSL 1.1 → Apache 2.0 in 2029); 80 stars, 10 forks -**Voice Registry:**10 frontier models across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI THE VERDICT ## Feature-by-Feature Comparison Shared Capabilities Multi-Model Architecture ✓ Up to 10 voices (4 flagships + 6 Commons) ✓ 5 frontier models on Pro+ (managed) Structured Multi-Model Deliberation ✓ Standard method (independent answers → critique → synthesis) ✓ Super Mind (4 synthesis strategies) + Adjudicator Multi-Round Formal Debate ✓ Oxford method (proposition / opposition) ✓ Debate mode (Oxford / Parliamentary / Lincoln-Douglas) Devil’s Advocate / Adversarial Voice ✓ Advocate method (single contrarian voice) ✓ Red Team mode (4 attack vectors + mitigation) Confidence Levels on Final Positions ✓ HIGH / MEDIUM labels per model ✓ DCI tracking + Adjudicator review Project Containers / Saved Sessions ✓ Dossiers (3 on Observer; unlimited on Member / Delegate) ✓ Projects with auto-extracted Knowledge Graph (Pro+) Document Attachments ✓ Member: 1 doc (text + md); Delegate: 2 docs (adds code + pdf) ✓ File upload across tiers; Document Intelligence Pipeline (Pro+) Conversation Export ✓ Markdown / PDF / JSON / text ✓ 25+ professional templates; PDF + DOCX + Markdown BYOK / Bring Your Own Keys ✓ Open Embassy on Observer (BYOK only) ✓ Enterprise tier with dedicated provider workspaces Mode / Method Variety ✓ 7 named methods on every tier ✓ 6 named modes (5 on Pro; Research Symphony on Enterprise) Suprmind Adds Sequential Mode (chain-of-models) — ✓ Each model reads prior responses, builds its own layer Multi-Vector Red Team — (single-voice Advocate only) ✓ 4 attack vectors + mitigation synthesis First Principles Mode — ✓ Strip assumptions, rebuild Research Symphony — ✓ Multi-AI research pipeline (Enterprise) Decision Validation Engine (DVE) — ✓ 6-stage GO/NO-GO with FMEA risk register Adjudicator (independent decision briefs) — ✓ Independent synthesis with reasoning DCI (Disagreement/Correction Index) — ✓ Quantifies disagreement per turn (Pro+) Master Document Generator — ✓ 25+ professional templates; PDF + DOCX Smart Visualizations — ✓ Interactive charts auto-embedded in exports Project Knowledge Graph — (Dossiers store sessions; no auto-extracted graph) ✓ Auto-extracted entities and decisions across threads (Pro+) Master Project (cross-workspace) — ✓ Query everything at once (Frontier+) @Mention Orchestration + Mode Chaining — ✓ Direct conductor control, modes chain mid-conversation Voice Input/Output (STT + TTS) — ✓ Voice composer + Listen button (Pro+) Native Web Search in Conversation — (deliberation is structured peer-critique, not retrieval-grounded) ✓ Perplexity Sonar built into every conversation EU + Switzerland Data Residency — (HQ / data residency not publicly disclosed) ✓ Application in Germany, database in Switzerland (managed) Quorum AI Does Better Academically Named Deliberation Methods ✓ 7 methods (Standard, Oxford, Advocate, Socratic, Delphi, Brainstorm, Tradeoff) 6 modes; no Delphi or Tradeoff named modes Delphi (Anonymous Anti-Anchoring) ✓ Anonymous-round estimation method Not a named mode Tradeoff (Weighted Multi-Criteria Scoring) ✓ Built-in weighted scoring matrix Not a named mode (achievable with Super Mind + prompt structure) Open-Source Path ✓ quorum-cli (BSL 1.1 → Apache 2.0 in 2029) Closed source platform Lower Paid Entry Point ✓ Member $9/mo; Delegate $19/mo Spark $4/mo; Pro $45/mo for full mode set Pricing Free Tier Observer $0/mo (15 discussions, BYOK only) 7-day free trial, no credit card Entry Tier Member $9/mo (30 discussions, 6-voice Commons, 1 doc, all 7 methods) $4/mo (Spark) Mid Tier Delegate $19/mo (100 discussions, all 10 voices, 2 docs, all 7 methods) $45/mo (Pro — full 6 modes + DI Layer) Top Consumer Tier Delegate $19/mo (top published tier) $95/mo (Frontier) Enterprise Not publicly disclosed Custom per-seat, billed annually THE SAME QUESTION, MORE OPTIONS ## Same Deliberation Pattern, Plus Optional Next Steps Suprmind starts identical to Quorum AI.

More options for what comes next.**Quorum AI:**“One AI gives an answer. A council gives wisdom.”**Suprmind:**The council pattern, plus six modes and decision deliverables for what comes after. WHAT SUPRMIND ADDS ## Beyond the Deliberation Transcript Six modes, document deliverables, and decision tooling that build on the multi-model foundation. Unique to Suprmind ### Red Team Mode 4 attack vectors: Technical Feasibility, Logical Consistency, Practical Implementation, Mitigation Synthesis. Stress-tests whether an answer survives real-world conditions, not just whether models agree on it. Quorum AI’s Advocate is a single contrarian voice; Red Team runs four orchestrated vectors against the answer. Unique to Suprmind ### Decision Validation Engine 6-stage pipeline producing a GO / NO-GO / GO-WITH-CONDITIONS verdict with full FMEA-style risk register. For decisions where you need defensible reasoning attached to the answer, not just a deliberation transcript. Unique to Suprmind ### Master Document Generator 25+ professional templates: Investment Memo, Executive Brief, SWOT, Legal Brief, Research Paper, Dev Brief. Auto-embedded Smart Visualizations in PDF and DOCX exports — beyond Quorum AI’s markdown / PDF / JSON / text transcript export. Unique to Suprmind ### Adjudicator + DCI DCI (Disagreement/Correction Index) tracks every disagreement and correction in the conversation. Adjudicator reads the full thread, weighs the evidence, and produces an independent decision brief — beyond Quorum AI’s per-model HIGH / MEDIUM confidence labels. Workspace Intelligence ### Project Knowledge Graph Automatically extracts entities, decisions, and relationships across conversations within a project (Pro+). Master Project (Frontier+) extends this across the entire workspace so the 10th conversation is meaningfully smarter than the first. Quorum AI’s Dossiers store sessions but don’t auto-extract a graph across them. Conductor Control ### @Mention + Mode Chaining Direct specific AIs to specific tasks: “@Perplexity gather the data, @Claude challenge it, @Gemini synthesize the brief.” Chain modes mid-conversation: Super Mind → Red Team → Adjudicator on a single question — beyond picking one method per discussion. THE PRICE QUESTION ## $9–19/mo for the Methods, or $45/mo for the Full Decision Stack Quorum AI’s pricing is genuinely lean for the deliberation category: Observer is free with BYOK (15 discussions / month), Member is**$9/month**for 30 discussions plus the 6-voice Commons pool, and Delegate is**$19/month**for 100 discussions plus the 4 Inner Circle flagships (GPT-5.2, Claude Opus 4.5, Gemini 3 Pro, Grok 4) and 2 document attachments. All seven methods ship on every tier. Suprmind’s Pro tier is**$45/month**and includes all six modes (Sequential, Super Mind, Debate, Red Team, First Principles), plus the Decision Intelligence Layer (DCI, Adjudicator, Decision Validation Engine), the full Master Document Generator with 25+ professional templates exporting to PDF and DOCX, Project Knowledge Graph, voice input/output, and managed EU + Switzerland data residency. Spark at**$4/month**covers the parallel-deliberation pattern with Super Mind plus mode chaining. For light deliberation usage where the work product is a transcript and the methods themselves (Delphi, Tradeoff, Socratic) are the value: Quorum AI Member or Delegate is the right answer. For decision work that produces deliverables and benefits from adversarial stress-testing, decision validation, and 25+ professional export templates with managed EU/Swiss hosting:**$45/month Pro is the right answer — roughly 2.5x the price for a structurally different output.**THE RIGHT FIT ## Who Should Choose Which? ### Choose Quorum AI If: - — Academically named deliberation methods (Delphi anonymous estimation, Tradeoff weighted scoring, Socratic progressive questioning) match a specific decision pattern in your work and you want them as named methods rather than prompt structures - — An open-source CLI path matters because you want to self-host or audit the deliberation logic (BSL 1.1 transitioning to Apache 2.0 in 2029) - — Your usage is light (15–100 discussions per month) and the $9–19/month price band is the right entry point for your budget - — You’re comfortable running BYOK on the free Observer tier and paying providers directly to keep costs minimal - — Your work product is a deliberation transcript or a synthesized answer with confidence labels, not a defensible decision deliverable ### Choose Suprmind If: - + Your work produces deliverables (memos, briefs, reports, recommendations) and output format matters as much as content quality - + Decisions in your work need adversarial stress-testing across multiple vectors (Red Team’s four) plus structured deliberation modes (Sequential, First Principles) before you commit - + You want a Decision Validation Engine producing GO / NO-GO / GO-WITH-CONDITIONS verdicts with FMEA-style risk register and an Adjudicator independent decision brief - + Cross-thread Project Knowledge Graph and Master Project would compound your research workflows over time - + Managed EU and Switzerland data residency (Germany compute, Swiss database) with DPA and MSA on request fits your privacy posture - + You need a Master Document Generator with 25+ export templates plus Smart Visualizations auto-embedded in PDF and DOCX FREQUENTLY ASKED ## Quorum AI vs Suprmind — Common Questions Does Suprmind do everything Quorum AI does on multi-model deliberation? Most of it. Both platforms run structured multi-model deliberation with critique and synthesis — Quorum AI ships seven academically named methods (Standard, Oxford, Advocate, Socratic, Delphi, Brainstorm, Tradeoff) and Suprmind ships six modes (Sequential, Super Mind, Debate, Red Team, First Principles, Research Symphony). The patterns overlap closely: Quorum AI’s Standard maps to Super Mind, Oxford maps to Debate, Advocate maps to Red Team. Quorum AI’s Delphi (anonymous rounds for anti-anchoring) and Tradeoff (weighted multi-criteria scoring) are methods Suprmind doesn’t ship as named modes. Suprmind’s Sequential, First Principles, and Research Symphony cover ground Quorum AI doesn’t. How do the two platforms handle formal debate? Both ship formal debate as a first-class capability. Quorum AI’s Oxford method runs structured proposition and opposition with rebuttals between models. Suprmind’s Debate mode supports three formats (Oxford, Parliamentary, Lincoln-Douglas), preserves minority opinions in the transcript, and produces an auditable record of the argumentation. Same intent, different implementations: Quorum AI focuses on the academic Oxford pattern as the canonical debate; Suprmind exposes three named formats and adds DCI tracking that quantifies disagreement across the rounds. Where does each platform store conversation data? Quorum AI is a hosted web platform with managed API keys on paid tiers; conversation history retention is around 30 days on the free Observer tier and unlimited on Member ($9) and Delegate ($19). The open-source quorum-cli stores sessions locally under ~/.quorum/ for users who self-host. Suprmind is a managed platform with EU and Switzerland data residency by default — application in Germany, primary database in Switzerland, with DPA and MSA available on request. Different storage architectures, with both supporting persistent project containers (Quorum AI: Dossiers; Suprmind: Projects). How many AI models does each platform use? Quorum AI’s Voice Registry has up to 10 voices: 6 Commons models (GPT-5 Nano and Mini, Claude Haiku 4.5 and Sonnet 4.5, Gemini 3 Flash, Grok 4.1 Fast) on Member, plus 4 Inner Circle flagships (GPT-5.2, Claude Opus 4.5, Gemini 3 Pro, Grok 4) on Delegate. Suprmind runs five frontier models together on Pro and above (GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity Sonar) with managed allocation included; Enterprise adds BYOK across all five providers with dedicated workspaces. Quorum AI gives you tier-gated breadth across mid and flagship variants; Suprmind always gives you all five frontier flagships in every conversation on Pro+. Is Quorum AI cheaper than Suprmind? Yes at the entry point. Quorum AI’s Observer tier is genuinely free (15 discussions / month, BYOK only) with no credit card. Member is $9 / month for 30 discussions and the Commons six-voice pool; Delegate is $19 / month for 100 discussions and all 10 voices including Inner Circle flagships. Suprmind starts at $4 / month (Spark) for the parallel-comparison pattern with managed hosting, $45 / month (Pro) for the full mode set plus the Decision Intelligence Layer (DCI, Adjudicator, DVE) and Master Document Generator. For light deliberation usage on a strict budget, Quorum AI Member or Delegate is the cheaper option. For decision work that produces deliverables, Suprmind Pro is the closer comparison. Can I move my Quorum AI workflow to Suprmind? Yes. The method patterns map directly: Standard → Super Mind, Oxford → Debate, Advocate → Red Team, Dossiers → Projects, confidence labels → DCI tracking. Suprmind adds Sequential mode (chain-of-models where each reads prior responses), First Principles, Research Symphony (Enterprise), Decision Validation Engine, Adjudicator, and a Master Document Generator with 25+ professional templates exporting to PDF and DOCX. Two methods that don’t have direct named equivalents on Suprmind are Quorum AI’s Delphi (anonymous rounds) and Tradeoff (weighted multi-criteria scoring) — both can be approximated with Super Mind plus prompt structure, but the named methods remain Quorum AI’s. What does Suprmind offer that Quorum AI doesn’t? Sequential mode (each model reads prior responses and adds its own layer), Red Team mode with four explicit attack vectors (Technical Feasibility, Logical Consistency, Practical Implementation, Mitigation Synthesis), First Principles mode (strip assumptions and rebuild), and Research Symphony (Enterprise). Plus a Decision Validation Engine producing GO / NO-GO / GO-WITH-CONDITIONS verdicts with FMEA-style risk register, an Adjudicator writing independent decision briefs, DCI (Disagreement/Correction Index) tracking the full conversation, a Master Document Generator with 25+ professional templates exporting to PDF and DOCX, Smart Visualizations auto-embedded in exports, project workspaces with an auto-extracted Knowledge Graph (Pro+), Master Project for cross-workspace queries (Frontier+), and voice input / output. Can I use both Quorum AI and Suprmind together? Yes — they can fit different jobs. Quorum AI’s Delphi (anonymous estimation) and Tradeoff (weighted multi-criteria scoring) are useful when you want academically named deliberation methods for a specific decision pattern, especially at the $9 / month Member or $19 / month Delegate price point. Suprmind fits when the work product is a deliverable or the decision has consequences: structured deliberation modes (Sequential, Red Team, First Principles), decision validation, and document export in 25+ professional formats. A founder might use Quorum AI’s Delphi for early-stage forecasting questions and Suprmind for the synthesis and deliverable that goes to investors. ## Decision intelligence platform for professionals who can’t afford to be wrong. Five frontier AIs, in the same conversation. They debate, challenge, and build on each other — you export the verdict as a deliverable. Disagreement is the feature.
