## Definition

The systematic monitoring of how each AI expert's stance on a question evolves — or holds firm — across multiple rounds of deliberation. Position tracking reveals which arguments are persuasive enough to shift an expert's view and which positions remain entrenched despite challenge. An expert that changes position in response to strong evidence demonstrates intellectual honesty; one that holds firm despite mounting counter-evidence may reveal a genuine structural disagreement worth investigating. Position tracking transforms a static set of opinions into a dynamic map of how ideas compete and evolve.

## About SynthBoard

SynthBoard is a standing board of AI experts that argue with each other on purpose, remember every call you make, and learn from how those calls played out. Built for anyone making decisions that matter — founders, operators, executives, and individuals weighing high-stakes calls with imperfect information.

Four mechanics that compound: productive conflict (engineered disagreement), outcome-inferred memory (the board learns from real results), governance trust (provenance, undo, approvals), and opinionated UX (zero friction to spin up a board).
