Bringing the models behind public decisions within everyone's reach.
Interactive.li turns the models behind energy, economic, environmental and health policy into live sessions in which participants take the decisions themselves, compare their results, and see the trade-offs each choice involves.
Energy, economic, environmental and health policy all rest on models that are costly to run and, in practice, used only by specialists — invisible to the people the decisions affect. Interactive.li wraps an interactive layer around such models, whatever the subject. Small groups work from their own phones, tablets or laptops: briefed on a challenge, they discuss it and submit a decision, and the model answers in the terms that matter for that field — cost, risk, emissions, health outcomes, the reactions of those involved. Game mechanics — objectives, scoring, teams — focus the discussion: participants cooperate within their team and compete with the others. They then compare results and debrief, with generative AI turning everyone's answers into something a facilitator can use on the spot. Nothing here predicts the future or names a right answer. What participants leave with is a sense of the constraints, and of what every choice gains and gives up.

Simulations
A growing set of ready-to-run simulations, each built around a working model and delivered live — from briefing and group discussion through to a shared debriefing.
-
Beyond Coal
Design the future electricity mix of a coal-dependent country, then submit it to an energy-system optimiser that reports back on cost, emissions and reliability — and shows how hard all three are to secure at once.
-
GenerationsPDF, English
Steer a decades-long programme to site a deep geological repository for radioactive waste, with stakeholder groups simulated by a large language model responding at every stage. Points are won by meeting expectations; a single veto ends the programme.
-
Epidemic Crisis Manager
Act as a regional policymaker containing a fast-spreading outbreak, with linked epidemiological and economic models showing round by round what each measure buys and what it costs.
