ELBO — The Public Square of Argumentation

ELBO is the Quebec debate platform that follows you everywhere. Live debates, polls, community challenges — everyone has access to the public square. Your ECHO profile certifies your skills and opens the doors to 3 specialized worlds: NOVA, APEX, and VOIX.

Live public debates on ELBO

On ELBO, two debaters go head-to-head on a controversial topic over video. Viewers vote in real time for the most convincing debater. The winner earns XP and climbs the leaderboards.

NOVA — Education through debate

NOVA turns debate into a teaching tool for CEGEPs and universities across Quebec. Teachers create structured exercises with assessment rubrics, a timer, and recording. Students build critical thinking and public speaking skills — verifiable competencies in their ECHO profile.

APEX — Corporate Training

APEX trains professionals in negotiation, leadership, and pitching. Companies simulate real-world situations: job interviews, contract negotiations, presentations. Personalized AI coaching identifies each participant's strengths and areas for improvement.

VOIX — Participatory Democracy

VOIX lets municipalities and governments consult their citizens through structured debates. Public consultations become transparent, measurable, and inclusive. Every citizen can defend their ideas on issues that matter to them.

ECHO — The profile that grows with you

ECHO is a verifiable argumentative profile that evolves across ELBO's 3 worlds. Every debate, evaluation, and consultation builds your skills: persuasion, listening, logic, empathy, clarity, and rigor. It's the anti-LinkedIn — a living resume based on your real argumentation abilities.

ELBO — the live digital debate arena

ELBO is a Quebec platform for spoken debate: you argue out loud against an artificial intelligence that contradicts you, then you receive a detailed assessment of your argumentation. NOVA is its version for schools, where the teacher launches a debate for the class, sets the language and level, and validates every grade themselves.
