Founding cohort · Free

Help us run the first DebateIt online debates.

We're piloting scheduled online debate events. Real motions, real opponents, real ballots. The founding cohort gets first invites, format-of-your-choice matchmaking, and a direct say in how the events get organized.

One sign-up puts you on the invite list. No account, no password, no app to install. We'll email you when the first round opens.

You're in the founding cohort.

That was the only step. We'll email you when the first round opens. In the meantime, take a voice round so you've got a credential to point at when invites go out.

What you're signing up for

First invites. Founding-cohort signups get the first round before public scheduling opens.
Format-of-your-choice matchmaking. We try to match you against another human at your skill level in the format you picked.
Real ballots. Every event produces an AI-judged ballot on the 25-30 academic scale, the same scale your certificate is calibrated to.
A say in how it runs. Cohort members shape the format mix, time slots, and how we handle elimination rounds.
No newsletter. One email per scheduled event. No "weekly digest."
