DEI Nudger

About

DEI Nudger listens to your own microphone during Google Meet calls and quietly coaches you toward more inclusive language — in the moment, not in a training session weeks later.

When it detects a pattern worth reconsidering, a small card appears with:
• What you said
• Why it matters (grounded in peer-reviewed research)
• A concrete alternative to try instead

After each call, a summary shows your top areas for improvement, trends across calls, and every nudge in detail.

── WHAT IT COVERS ──
147 language patterns across 16 categories:
Gendered Language · Ableist Language · Microaggressions · Tone Policing · Attribution Bias · Colorblind Language · LGBTQ+ Language · Age Bias · Mental Health Stigma · Exclusionary Idioms · Cultural Appropriation · Socioeconomic Bias · Xenophobia · Religious Bias · and more

── GROUNDED IN RESEARCH ──
Karen Catlin (Better Allies) · Ibram X. Kendi (How to Be an Antiracist) · Jennifer Brown (How to Be an Inclusive Leader) · Derald Wing Sue (Racial Microaggressions in Everyday Life) · APA / NAMI · and peer-reviewed academic literature
