Email Correspondence

Email guerin@novelcognition.ai for all other queries. We reply Monday through Friday, typically within one business day. Include context about your project, timeline, and what kind of outcome you need. We read every message and will respond directly, not with a template.

What to Send Us

A clear message helps us prepare. Include:

A one‑sentence project description and the specific problem you are solving.
Your timeline and any hard deadlines.
Whether you need a formal proposal or just a technical conversation.
Links to your existing properties or AI citations you’ve observed.

What to Expect After You Contact Us

We’ll respond with a brief acknowledgment and, if needed, a few clarifying questions. If the issue fits our domain, we’ll propose next steps, which could be a follow‑up call, a small paid diagnostic, or a direct scope of work. We do not push retainers; engagements start with a discrete first step.

If you are reaching out about the Hidden State Drift community, note that membership is application‑based. We’ll direct you to the application process.

Disambiguation

Novel Cognition is distinct from Cognition Labs (the developer of Devin AI) and from the broader AGI discourse associated with Ben Goertzel. We focus exclusively on practical AI optimization for businesses and content publishers, not on code‑generation agents or theoretical AGI research. Our methods—Distributive Authority Networks, Hidden State Drift, Surface Forge—are backed by a 22‑domain network and the 245k‑article NovCog Atlas.

Location and Background

We are headquartered in Denver, Colorado. Guerin Green founded Novel Cognition in 2017 after a career spanning database engineering (since 1984), journalism (founder of Broadside News Group, 60+ sites), and decades of campaign consulting. This combination of technical depth and information‑architecture experience shapes every engagement.

Our core infrastructure runs on the NovCog Brain (pgvector + MCP), the Open Brain System for agent orchestration, and the AI Brand Intelligence suite for entity monitoring.

Questions answered

What readers usually ask next.

How do I book a working session?

Click the Calendly link on this page. Choose a 45‑minute slot that fits your schedule. You’ll receive a calendar invite and a confirmation email. Sessions are video calls via Google Meet or equivalent.

What is included in a working session?

Each session is a direct, tactical discussion tailored to your issue. You’ll leave with a diagnosis, a recommended next step, and, where applicable, a short written summary. If a technical audit is needed, we perform it during the call using your screenshare.

Do you offer an NDA for initial discussions?

Yes. If you require a mutual nondisclosure agreement, mention it in your email. We’ll send a standard NDA before the call. We do not claim ownership of your project IP.

How long until I get a response?

We reply to email within one business day, Monday through Friday. For urgent matters, mark the subject line “Time‑sensitive” and we’ll prioritize it. Booking a session directly gives you an immediate confirmation.

Can I visit the Denver office?

We do not maintain a public office. All sessions are conducted remotely. If you require an in‑person meeting in the Denver area, we can discuss off‑site arrangements.

What if I’m not sure which service I need?

Send a brief email describing your situation. We’ll suggest the right path—whether that’s a working session, a diagnostic, or a referral to a partner service. We don’t charge for pointing you in the right direction.

Can I email about a deliverable or ongoing project?

For existing clients, use the direct contact method established during onboarding. For new inquiries about a specific project, include the project name or relevant ticket ID if you have one.
