The first deliverable lands September 15, 2026: The Adversary Index (TAI), a quarterly composite score ranking nation-state and major non-state adversaries across eight measured dimensions of cognitive and cyber posture.
TAI ships free at the point of access. Subscription tiers running from $25,000 to $250,000 per year provide sub-indices, monthly snapshots, and crisis flash updates.
“Cognitive warfare reporting has stayed anecdotal for a decade,” said the founder of Treadstone 71. “TAI changes the inputs. One number per adversary per quarter, against a published rubric, citable in press, Congressional testimony, and NATO briefings.”
The remaining five pillars launch in coordinated sequence across 12 months:
• The Public Attribution Series (Q3 2026)
• The Cognitive Warfare Threat Report Preview (Q4 2026)
• The Decision Advantage Standard public draft (Q4 2026)
• The Cognitive Warfare Operating System (2027 MVP)
• The Embedded Cognitive Warfare Officer retainer service (Q4 2026 first lighthouse)
