We've all been there—stuck in an unproductive, emotional debate that goes nowhere. Whether it's with friends, at work, or on the world stage, these discussions often waste valuable time without producing meaningful outcomes. Meanwhile, we face controversies and conflicts every day, some with dire consequences. The question is: how can we improve this situation?

nlite [enlight] aims to shed light on controversial topics by systematically identifying the top arguments for all sides. By doing so, it becomes easier to cut through the noise and assess which side overall makes more sense. The platform itself remains neutral and never takes sides.

Users play the central role in submitting and ranking arguments on nlite. This approach, which leverages the collective knowledge of the audience, is considered more reliable than data from any single organization and is gaining popularity across social media.

A distinguishing feature of the platform is its ranking methodology, which relies on pairwise comparisons of randomly selected arguments. This approach addresses a common shortcoming with content ranking on social media, where early submissions often get more visibility and votes. In contrast, the algorithms used by nlite are designed to evaluate all submissions, regardless of their submission time.

Beyond logic, the platform seeks to foster emotional connections by offering spaces where users can share their personal experiences and spontaneous thoughts. These opportunities are available through the Life Stories and Comments sections, found on every Argument and Counter page. Importantly, these spaces help users get exposed to the real-world impacts of the submitted arguments and add a human dimension to the discussions. (Learn more)

Last but not least, while the platform rigorously investigates controversial topics, its interactive design ensures an engaging and enjoyable experience.

In short, nlite offers an rigorous, efficient, and engaging approach to investigating controversial topics. We hope that next time you find yourself on the verge of an unproductive emotional debate, you consider nliting the topic instead! (Quick Start)
