Honest comparison
CrocoBrain vs Delphi
Delphi's model is the digital clone: a conversational version of you, built to talk with your audience at scale. CrocoBrain starts from the other end — a brain for you to think with — and only then, if you choose, publishes a curated public clone.
We compare models and design choices, not feature checklists. Other tools evolve; if something here is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.
Built for the owner, not the audience
A clone-first product is judged by how well it converses with other people. CrocoBrain is judged by how well it helps YOU think: surfacing gaps, confronting contradictions, drafting in your voice from your own sourced notes. The audience-facing clone is one output, not the point.
A clone that only says what you validated
CrocoBrain's public clone answers exclusively from the mature, owner-approved layer of your wiki, with citations. It would rather say less than improvise in your name.
Contradictions instead of flattery
A system tuned for pleasant conversation tends to agree. CrocoBrain is tuned the other way: it surfaces where your own sources contradict each other and asks you to arbitrate. The record of those arbitrations is what makes the brain genuinely yours.
Ownership you can hold in your hands
Everything CrocoBrain builds from your content exports as a plain Obsidian-compatible Markdown vault. Your structured corpus is an asset you keep, whatever you do next.
Which one is for you?
If your main goal is scaled conversations with an audience today, a clone-first product is a reasonable choice. If you want a rigorous, cited brain that improves your own thinking and writing — and a public clone you fully control as a by-product — choose CrocoBrain.
