# Cookiy AI

Cookiy AI is the **Human Layer** of the AI stack — open infrastructure that gives any AI the ability to reach real humans and bring back what they actually think.

The AI industry has infrastructure for payments (Stripe), communications (Twilio), identity (Auth0), data (Snowflake), and compute (AWS). Cookiy fills the missing layer: **access to what real people actually think.** The most consequential knowledge — why consumers choose, what patients fear, how founders evaluate — lives in people's heads. Cookiy extracts it.
