Cartógrafo

The Cartógrafo (the Cartographer) is one of nexmin's four AI engines. Its job is to score each session phenomenologically: five clinical variables measurable directly from the client's language — emotional processing, therapeutic alliance, active engagement, self-reflection, integration. Every score arrives with the verbatim quote that justifies it.

The Cartógrafo does not diagnose. Its task is to describe the territory session by session, as close as possible to the client's actual language. Each of the five variables has a concrete rubric — which signals in the discourse raise the score, which lower it, where the neutral zone sits — and is applied consistently so that the trajectory across sessions remains comparable. The five variables are deliberately chosen to describe process, not pathology. "Emotional processing" measures how the client contacts and symbolises what they feel, without judging whether the feeling is good or bad (deep sadness with contact scores high, not low). "Therapeutic alliance" disaggregates bond, agreement on goals and agreement on tasks. "Active engagement" replaces the blame-laden term "patient compliance". This is humanistic vocabulary, not DSM. What the Cartógrafo delivers is not bare numbers: every score is accompanied by the textual evidence that justifies it. If you disagree with a specific score, you read the quote and decide — the engine shows you its reasoning, it does not impose it. That traceability is what separates a useful clinical metric from an opaque score nobody can audit.

Inside nexmin

The Cartógrafo runs after every session analysed by Scriba. Its scores feed the Clinical cartography visible on the client's record and are one of the signals Pensa reads when producing the longitudinal synthesis of the trajectory.
