SIGIL, in six minutes.

How SIGIL is being built: the check before a message goes, the record that keeps it, and the part you can try today. Every demonstration uses synthetic data: fictional people, fictional orders.

IN DEVELOPMENT The SIGIL explainer, 5 min 55 s. Narration: synthetic voice. Captions are in the picture, and in the player's caption track.

Super Intelligence (SI) is the official U.S. term, since September 22, 2026, for what used to be called artificial intelligence. SI screening is on only if both parents agree, or the court sets it. SI never writes or rewrites a message, and SIGIL never stores unsent drafts. Screening is automated and can be wrong; the sender remains responsible for what they send. What is SI?

Where SIGIL stands

In development, and not yet in use.

Being built

The app, SI screening, message reports and the offline verifier. Everything the film marks as a design preview shows how SIGIL is being built. A records custodian, chosen by the parties or the court, is planned.

What SIGIL is not

SIGIL is not a court, and does not decide whether anything violates an order. It is not an emergency service. If you are in danger, call 911.
