I created The Summit Protocol to dismantle the systemic human bias and socio-economic inequality inherent in traditional diplomatic and debate training. Elite training (MUN, debating) is often inaccessible due to high costs and subjective human judging. I saw a need for an objective, scalable, and equitable solution. By utilizing an AI-driven cognitive audit engine aligned with IB MYP/DP criteria, I aim to democratize access to high-level diplomatic education, ensuring that talent—not financial background—is the primary determinant of a student’s success. This project is a response to the urgent need for ethical AI tools that foster critical thinking and global citizenship in the next generation.
n practice, The Summit Protocol is an autonomous, web-based platform that acts as a 24/7 Socratic mentor. Students participate in diplomatic simulations, and our engine performs real-time cognitive auditing of their speeches. The system evaluates logical consistency, evidence synthesis, and rhetorical persuasion against rigorous IB standards. Crucially, it provides an interactive feedback loop: instead of static grades, students engage in a Socratic dialogue with the AI to challenge logical fallacies and enhance their argumentation. The platform generates a standardized PDF progress report, providing objective, data-driven verification of skill development. To ensure safety, we enforce a strict 'Zero-Storage' architecture, purging all data within 24 hours to fully comply with global privacy standards
The Summit Protocol is currently in its deployment phase. We have established a robust institutional foundation, with our methodology scientifically validated and registered via a CERN-indexed DOI. The project is an active MIT Solv[ED] Candidate and is currently under formal institutional review by the IBO Research & Assessment Innovation Team. We are in the process of launching global pilot programs across diplomatic and debate networks, offering our technical infrastructure to institutional partners as a 'Global Research Node' to collect empirical data on youth cognitive development and diplomatic skill trends.
Initially conceived as a feedback tool, the Summit Protocol has evolved into a comprehensive cognitive auditing framework. A major addition is our Socratic AI Mentor, which replaces passive grading with an interactive dialogue to stimulate student reflection. We have also implemented a proprietary 'Zero-Storage' privacy architecture to ensure absolute data safety for minor users, purging data every 24 hours. Most recently, we formalized our scientific foundation by publishing our methodology in the CERN-indexed Zenodo repository (DOI) and aligning our AI-Judge engine precisely with IB MYP/DP Criteria, transforming the platform into a rigorous academic auditing tool.
To experience the Summit Protocol, visit our platform at https://summitproject.co. Educational leaders, debate coaches, or MUN directors can register for a 'Teacher' account. This role allows you to create virtual debate rooms and invite students to participate. The entire process is automated and asynchronous: once a student records their speech, the system instantly generates an IB-aligned audit report and initiates the Socratic mentor session.
