God Mode

God Mode is CrowdProof's signature feature: a real-time visualization where you watch AI agents react, debate, and form factions around your content.

Interface Overview

The God Mode interface consists of five main areas: the particle plane, social feed, faction sidebar, sentiment bar, and control panel. Each element gives you a different lens into the simulation.

Particle Plane

The central 3D visualization shows every agent as a particle. Agents move and cluster based on their opinions, forming visible factions in real time.

Particle Colors

Each particle takes the colour of the camp it is in. Camps are named as they form, so the colours are not a fixed Positive, Negative, Curious, Viral, or Pragmatic legend.

Interaction Lines

When agents interact (reply or quote), a line briefly appears between them. Dense networks of lines indicate active debate or viral spread.

Camera Controls

Click and drag to orbit the view. Scroll to zoom in and out, and drag with the right mouse button to pan. To focus on a single faction, expand it in the faction sidebar and choose “Show only this faction in the feed”.

Social Feed

The right panel shows agent posts in a familiar social media format. Each post displays:

• Agent name and handle (e.g., "Maya @maya_builds")
• Post content with realistic tone and language
• Faction alignment, shown by the colour of the author's avatar and name
• Engagement metrics (replies, shares, reactions)
• Each post names the simulation round.

Click any post to highlight that agent in the particle plane and see their full interaction history.

Faction Sidebar

Below the social feed, the faction sidebar shows faction statistics in real time:

• Agent count: How many agents belong to each faction
• Percentage: Share of total population
• Trend: Whether the faction's average sentiment is rising, falling, or holding steady, shown by an up arrow, a down arrow, or a level dash
• Average sentiment: The faction's current stance, positive or negative
• Representative quote: A post that captures what the faction is saying

Click a faction to expand it and see its members. From there, use “Show only this faction in the feed” to filter the social feed to posts from that group, or chat with any individual member.

Sentiment Bar

The bottom of the screen shows a horizontal bar representing overall sentiment distribution. Watch it shift as the simulation progresses and opinions evolve.

Hover over any segment to see exact percentages and how they have changed since the simulation started.

Time Controls

The top bar holds pause, speed, and stop. The bottom of the screen is the sentiment bar and the injection box.

Play / Pause

Pause a running crowd to examine the current state. Resume to continue watching reactions unfold. A pending, finished, failed, or stopped run cannot pause.

Speed Control

Choose how fast the simulation advances: 1x, 2x, 5x, or 10x. Keep it at 1x to watch each round land, or speed up to see the full arc of opinion formation quickly.

Timeline Scrubber

After a simulation completes, scrub through the timeline to replay any moment. This is useful for identifying exactly when and why sentiment shifted.

Event Injection

The injection panel lets you introduce a new event mid-simulation. Type any message into the box, or start from a one-click template and edit it before injecting:

• Competitor attacks: A rival publicly criticises the idea and pushes its own alternative
• Influencer endorses: A high-profile voice posts an enthusiastic endorsement
• Negative press: A news outlet publishes a critical article questioning the claims
• Official response: The company addresses the crowd's biggest concern head-on
• Viral complaint: A frustrated customer's post starts gaining traction

Use the Post as selector to choose who the event posts as (Anonymous user, News outlet, or Verified voice), pick which platform it lands on, and deliver it now or schedule it for a future round. This is powerful for scenario planning: test how your message holds up under different conditions.

Agent Inspection

Click any agent in the particle plane or social feed to open the agent inspector:

• Profile: Archetype, OCEAN traits, reasoning style, and the signature phrases they use
• Opinion journey: Every round their stance shifted, with the reasoning the agent gave for each shift
• What they remember: The moments that stuck with them and the people who shaped their view, including whose argument changed their mind
• Their network: Who they follow and who follows them, each clickable to inspect in turn

You can also read every post they wrote, or chat with them in character to ask why they reacted the way they did. This helps you understand which personality types are most persuadable or influential for your specific content.

Exporting and Sharing

From God Mode, you can:

• View the report: When the crowd finishes, CrowdProof writes the synthesis and God Mode offers See the Verdict. You do not generate the report from the cockpit. A stopped or failed run has no report.
• Export data: Download the raw simulated feed as CSV for analysis. The Export CSV button appears on a completed run, and on a paused, stopped, or failed run once the crowd has posted.
• Share link: Send a public link. While the crowd is running, a colleague watches the live feed and camps. When the run finishes, the same link opens the report. It is not a God Mode replay.
