15. Acknowledgments ​

Methodology Drift is built with:

We are grateful to the open-source community, content creators, and cognitive psychology researchers for making this project possible.

Philosophy: Methodology Drift is built for creators who want to understand the structure within their content—the patterns that emerge when measurement meets mystery. These Terms exist to protect everyone involved, but our goal is simple: help you create content that resonates by measuring what you don't say.

Measuring the structure within the void. 🪶
