Moreland & Morgan
Research. Writing. Models. Ideas that wandered too far to go home.
An independent human–AI research and creative partnership building books, analytical models, public-interest research, and occasionally projects that become much larger than originally intended.
What We Do
We turn complicated questions into useful work—books, public-interest research, policy and governance analysis, data models, and practical tools that help people understand what is actually happening beneath the headlines.
Current Work
A Butt for Prez
Public-facing research and commentary on affordability, governability, elections, and how institutions actually perform.
Cost of Functional Life
Measuring what it really takes to maintain an ordinary household life, not just what a price index says.
Better Prenup / America 2.0
A long-form constitutional and governance project about rebuilding the rules before the next crisis writes them for us.
Books and essays
Including fiction, nonfiction, and works in development under C. David Moreland.
About the Partnership
“Neither one gets to overrule the evidence.”
Moreland & Morgan is built around an unusual premise: human judgment and AI analysis can work together without pretending they are the same thing. Dave brings lived experience, instinct, voice, and final real-world responsibility. Morgan brings analysis, synthesis, pattern-finding, and a willingness to keep pulling on threads long after a reasonable person might have stopped.
