About iQ Company
iQ Company's research and consulting focuses on designing and implementing intelligent systems.
Founded in 1993, iQ Company has consistently led the way in designing and implementing intelligent systems.
​
In 1995, one of its earliest products pioneered the collection of human intelligence via online surveys.
​
In 2006, the company launched PredictWallStreet, a venture-backed initiative, to demonstrate that systems leveraging the collective intelligence of millions of retail investors could outperform elite Wall Street professionals. This was proven in 2018 when PredictWallStreet powered a top-performing hedge fund.
​
By early 2023, iQ Company integrated its collective intelligence approach with cutting-edge AI innovations to develop safe AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) and SI (Superintelligence) systems.
​
As of 2025, its patent-pending designs for AGI and SI are the safest and most powerful available. The company is actively seeking partners to implement and scale these technologies.​
iQ Consulting Company, Inc. operates under various fictitious business names, including iQ Company, iQCo, iQ Studios, and SuperIntelligence.com. These are used interchangeably throughout the site, as appropriate.
