THE ALGORITHM
Distorted algorithms
- Inputs
- What is being taken in?
- Time & attention
- Where is time being directed?
- Outputs
- What is being built over time?
A NEW TECHNOLOGICAL PARADIGM
Bring your
innate curiosity.
Build your
capability.
The power
of paradox
Learn to use large language models in a way that makes the modern technological zeitgeist of decay obsolete. Release excess inputs that aren't yours.
We are the time
we spend
Virtuous Edge exists to restore your human agency: to use technology deliberately, reclaim your time from confounding influences that deprive the soul, and direct your attention toward what serves your highest human good.
Algorithm
vs. agency
There's a visceral, restorative way to harness the growing capacity of technology to improve and build on the actual human condition.

ColeFOUNDER, VIRTUOUS EDGE
Hi, I’m Cole.
I’m Cole, founder of Virtuous Edge. I studied cultural anthropology at the University of Colorado Boulder as an Evans Scholar, with a minor in biology and a certificate in public health. That background shaped my interest in how people live within—and are shaped by—the systems around them.
Years of caddying, mentoring students, and teaching have brought me into close contact with people in different circumstances. Virtuous Edge brings that perspective to technology: helping people use its growing capacity deliberately, with their own judgment, time, and highest human good at the center.
