millionways Launches Thorsten-4, a Large Psychology Model Claiming 90% Intent-Accuracy
millionways has released Thorsten-4, an enterprise-grade behavioral intelligence engine billed as a "Large Psychology Model," claiming a validated accuracy of 90% in predicting human intent, motivation, and decisions. According to rohanpaulai, a hedge fund has already used the model to trade live on a $50 million portfolio. It can be accessed via the millionways platform, API, MCP, or self-hosting, and is designed to complement rather than replace existing LLMs.
Confirmed
- Thorsten-4 was released by millionways (the outofcords team) and is positioned to understand "the person speaking" rather than the language itself, extracting behavioral measures such as motivation, decision-making style, emotional regulation, and cognitive patterns from meetings, interviews, customer service calls, emails, and AI conversations
- Its training data comes from interviews conducted by more than 50 psychologists with thousands of individuals (mentioned by both Scobleizer and rohanpaulai), addressing general LLMs' weakness in understanding "why people do what they do"
- The official website (product page cited by rohanpaulai) says it can analyze trust and escalation risks in AI agent scenarios, with support for API, MCP, and self-hosting
- Usage pattern: models like GPT continue to generate responses while Thorsten-4 judges the other party's motivation and decision-making style, letting agents decide when to push forward and when to pause; rohanpaulai says that in enterprise pilots it outperformed GPT alone at reading customer intent
- Example use cases: detecting hesitation and objections behind "sounds good" in AI sales calls and interview agents; rohanpaulai claims it can see through false confidence in executives' earnings calls and beat traditional sentiment-analysis tools at predicting actual stock performance
Not Yet Confirmed
- The 90% accuracy claim, the hedge fund's $50 million live trading, and the claim of beating sentiment-analysis tools all come from company statements or a single source (rohanpaulai), with no independent verification
Why It Matters
- It shifts AI competition from "language capability" toward "behavioral and psychological understanding." If the capabilities hold up, it could have real impact on agent use cases in sales, recruiting, and customer service, as well as financial sentiment analysis — though the training data (psychologist interviews) also raises potential privacy and ethics concerns.
