FAQ

A behavioural signal is an observable indication that how people act may be starting to change — one specific, evidence-backed observation, never a theory or a prediction.

See how Quettor defines Signals, Patterns and Insights

A Signal is a single observation. A Pattern only emerges once several independent Signals start pointing toward the same broader behavioural shift — Quettor never treats one Signal as a Pattern on its own.

A Pattern shows that a broader behaviour is changing. An Insight interprets why that change matters — for markets, industries and organisations.

No. A trend is usually already visible and widely reported. A Signal is detected while a change is still small and easy to miss — most Signals never become anything bigger, and Quettor never inflates one into a trend before the evidence justifies it.

Quettor continuously scans real digital conversations, filters out noise, and only escalates an observation into a Signal, Pattern or Insight once the evidence meets a defined confidence threshold.

Yes. The entire Knowledge Graph — every Signal, Pattern and Insight — is free to explore. Membership unlocks the personal layer on top: saving intelligence, building your Intelligence Memory, and asking your own research Questions.

Quettor is a private intelligence platform that detects emerging change in human behaviour before it becomes obvious.

It transforms global digital noise into structured Signals, Patterns and Insights.

The name comes from the two extremes of scientific measurement: Quetta (10³⁰), the largest official SI prefix, and Quecto (10⁻³⁰), the smallest.

Quettor exists between them — turning information at Quetta scale into insight at Quecto precision.

Read Why Quettor

Quettor continuously observes public discourse across hundreds of sources, generates research questions from what it finds, and organises the resulting evidence into Signals, Patterns and Insights.

Quettor scans, detects, filters, clusters and validates millions of digital conversations, transforming that raw noise into structured Signals, Patterns and Insights — evidence-based intelligence, never invented trends.

AI is one part of the Quettor Engine.

The engine combines observations, dynamic research questions, and accumulated Signals, Patterns and Insights to generate intelligence.

Modern language models generate excellent answers, but they do not continuously accumulate and organise millions of observations into proprietary Signals, Patterns and Insights.

Quettor builds institutional memory over time.

The entire Knowledge Graph — Signals, Patterns, Insights and Intelligence Reports — is free to read, no account required.

Membership is for My Quettor: asking Questions, saving what matters to you, and receiving Briefs that keep updating as the story evolves.

Quettor does not predict the future. There is no crystal ball.

Instead, every Signal is supported by observable evidence. As evidence accumulates, Signals may evolve into Patterns and eventually Insights.

Your own private My Quettor: save any Signal, Pattern, Insight or Intelligence Report, and ask Questions — never shown to anyone else.

The shared Knowledge Graph itself (Signals, Patterns, Insights, Intelligence Reports) is free to everyone, no account needed.

Every membership includes a monthly quota of Ask (5 for Individual, 25 for Business, 100 for Enterprise) — they reset when your subscription renews.

Each Ask seeds real, ongoing research and returns a fully documented Brief, which keeps improving automatically as new evidence appears.

Need more before your next renewal? You can buy Purchased Ask at any time. Purchased Ask never expire while your membership stays active.
