A tool for practicing
critical thinking
through arguments.
Make your case clearly.
Get answers to what you actually said.
Our Mission
Proposit exists to raise the quality of how people reason together. Our mission is to make rigorous thinking something anyone can practice — and to make the strength of an argument, not the standing of whoever makes it, the thing that decides what holds.
We are committed to changing what public disagreement rewards. Not confidence, volume, or speed, but the courage to state a belief honestly and meet its strongest challenge, as well as the willingness to change your mind when confronted with new information. When people argue this way, we reach sounder answers — and we can trust how we got there.
“When someone persuades me that I am wrong, I change my mind. What do you do?”

What makes
Proposit
different?
Ideas over identities
Your argument is judged on what it says, not who said it.
Clarity through structure
Laying out your reasons step by step shows what you actually know — and what you're assuming.
Sources over soundbites
Claims need evidence, and Proposit gives authors the tools to provide it. No more excuses for unsupported statements.
Relevance, not deflection
Every response answers a specific point in the argument. Without deflections and distractions, the quality of discussion improves.
