the eq company
The Emotional Intelligence Company is building toward a world where all interaction is soulful. We're the home for the intuition and judgement of the best writers, poets, artists and creative minds in the world. Our research helps capture what true emotional intelligence is and how to preserve it for the universe indefinitely.
We are a team of artists, cognitive scientists, and ex-unicorn operators. We are based in San Francisco and our team spans Los Angeles, Milan, New York, and Paris. We are backed by creatives from the world's premier cultural and research institutions. We love people and community. Our team includes researchers from USC, UCLA, Caltech, Stanford, Columbia, and École Normale Supérieure.
For most of history, exceptional judgment was trapped inside the person who developed it. Writing let us preserve ideas, books let us study them across generations, the internet made them searchable and globally accessible. But none of these let you interact with the mind behind the work.
A great investor could only make so many decisions. A great founder could only build so many companies. A great artist could only create so much work before their time ran out.
You could study what they did, but not fully access the structure beneath it: what they noticed, how they formed that view, how they changed their mind, how they navigated uncertainty when there was no obvious answer.
