We’ve Decoded Cognition to Humanize AI.
Whether you’re leading a team, building a product, designing policy, or just trying to connect, understanding how people think changes everything.
The Architecture of Human Thinking for a Better Future
MindTime reveals how we think, process, and decide through a time-based framework of Past, Present, and Future thinking. Unlike personality tests that describe what people do, MindTime explains why. Built on 25+ years of cross-cultural research, MindTime maps the motivational architecture behind human behavior, making cognition visible and actionable.
Past: How we build certainty
Oriented toward structure, logic, and trusted systems. Past thinkers lead with evidence, data, and the reliability of what’s proven to work.
Present: How we move into action
Focused on results, timing, and relevance. Present thinkers value closure, pragmatism, and clarity in process and people.
Future: How we imagine what’s possible
Driven by change and vision. Future thinkers lead with innovation, big ideas, and the creative courage to disrupt.
We’ve spent nearly three decades helping people understand people. Now we’re helping systems do the same.
From Science to Systems of Understanding.
MindTime provides the first complete cognitive framework that explains how people think, why they act, and how meaning is formed. It reveals time-based thought patterns that shape behavior across cultures, generations, and individuals.
As AI begins to influence every aspect of society, one question matters more than any other: how do we make it truly human-aware?
MindTime is the answer. It’s not psychology rebranded; it’s cognitive science reimagined for the age of AI. And now, we’ve built the technology to apply it.
Why is MindTime so unique?
Precision. Simplicity. Scientific Depth.
Cognitive Precision in Under 60 Seconds
MindTime produces remarkably accurate cognitive profiles using just three core thinking vectors, in less than a minute.
Science-Built and Tested. Ethically Engineered.
Developed through decades of interdisciplinary research and used by psychologists, educators, strategists, and leaders around the world.
Predictive Human Insight, Not Just Behavioral Data.
Unlike reactive systems that wait for patterns, MindTime provides a priori cognitive insight, offering understanding before engagement begins.
One Framework. Many Expressions. One Purpose: Humanize AI.
MindTime is more than a cognitive framework. It’s the foundation of a global movement to bring real human understanding into how technology sees, hears, and responds to us. This ecosystem is the infrastructure of that movement ; built to make AI more human-aware from the inside out. Each expression below reflects that mission. Together, they form the cognitive layer of a more respectful, emotionally intelligent digital future.
Meet the framework
This is not a system built for machines. It is a framework built for people.
John Furey, creator of the MindTime framework, spent over 30 years decoding how humans think, decide, and relate. In this short talk, he walks you through the powerful simplicity at the heart of it all: how time shapes thought, and how understanding it transforms communication, leadership, and connection.
This is not just a theory. It is practical, precise, and deeply human.
You are in good company
One Framework.
Infinite Possibilities.
Whether you’re building a brand, designing policy, or just trying to connect, MindTime helps you see people more clearly.
MindTime is the human science behind how we think. Built on 25 years of research, it reveals the hidden architecture of thought; past, present, and future. It empowers people to understand one another in profoundly meaningful ways though a powerful framework for trust, collaboration, and human-aligned technology.
