CONTRA Take a stand. Defend your ideas. Change your opponent's mind. Contra is the first app that turns debate into a discipline. You pick a topic. You take a position. An argumentative AI takes the opposing side — trained to spot your weaknesses, exploit your blind spots, and defend its case until the end. Your only goal: make it change its mind. A precise measure of how you think. After every debate, a detailed score across four dimensions — Logic · Rhetoric · Evidence · Originality — reveals where you excel and where you give ground. An AI coach walks back through each exchange, line by line, and shows you the counter-argument you could have made. Three ways to practice. — Solo. Four difficulty levels, from training to Brutal. The AI adapts to your skill and raises the bar as you progress. — 1v1 Challenges. Send a challenge to a friend. Same topic, same rules. The strongest case wins. — Public Arenas.
