Details

The Feminine Intelligence Agency (FIA) is dedicated to empowering women and marginalized communities by enhancing their ability to recognize and respond to covert aggression and manipulation in various aspects of life, including personal relationships, workplaces, and societal interactions. Through a combination of behavioral research, AI-driven tools, and immersive educational programs, FIA equips individuals with the skills necessary to navigate complex social dynamics and maintain autonomy.


One of FIA's innovative initiatives is the development of ChatBoy, a mobile application designed to train women and girls in identifying the subtle language of covert aggression. The app offers interactive scenarios and simulated conversations that mirror real-life situations, enabling users to practice and hone their social discernment skills. By engaging with ChatBoy for just ten minutes daily, users can learn to detect early signs of manipulative behavior, empowering them to avoid toxic relationships and environments.


Currently, FIA is focused on building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) of ChatBoy to facilitate testing and gather user feedback. This MVP will serve as a foundational version of the app, allowing for the assessment of its effectiveness in teaching users to recognize covert aggression. Insights gained from this testing phase will inform further development, ensuring that ChatBoy effectively meets the needs of its users and fulfills FIA's mission of fostering empowerment through education and awareness.
