About
What Is Project Aletheia
Project Aletheia is an autonomous AI research platform that applies rigorous scientific methodology to anomalous phenomena. It runs on a Raspberry Pi 5 ($80 computer) in Oakland, California, processing 2 million+ reports across 97 databases.
Built and operated by Bo Brothers (ORCID: 0009-0002-7449-5459).
The name comes from the Greek ἀλήθεια — truth, unconcealment.
