Getting Organized
Getting Started Checklist
Build an editable checklist with per-item status tracking (not started / in progress / done) and document export.
Open tool →Customer Checklist
Track stakeholder requirements across columns for requirement, priority (H/M/L), and status with inline editing.
Open tool →Issue Redefinition
Reframe your analytical question in multiple ways to reveal hidden assumptions and broaden your perspective.
Coming soonChronologies
Chronology + visual timeline with gap/cluster flagging, tag color-coding, source-preserving merges, and ACH hand-off.
Open tool →Exploration Techniques
Sorting & Ranking
Define items and weighted criteria; scores are auto-calculated and items ranked accordingly.
Coming soonNetwork Analysis
Map actors and relationships in a force-directed graph. Inspect degree centrality on click.
Coming soonMind Maps
Radial idea map with outline view, timed brainwriting rounds, dot-voting, and rich export options.
Open tool →Diagnostic Techniques
Analysis of Competing Hypotheses
Classic ACH matrix: rate evidence against hypotheses, auto-rank by inconsistency score.
Open tool →Key Assumptions Check
List, tag, and rate the assumptions beneath your analysis (Solid / Caveated / Unsupported); convert key uncertainties into collection requirements. Seeds from Mind Map, Chronology, and ACH.
Open tool →Argument Mapping
Hierarchical tree of claims, supporting arguments, rebuttals, and evidence with strength ratings.
Coming soonDeception Detection
MIDLIFE-framework checklist with per-indicator rating and a deception likelihood gauge.
Coming soonReframing Techniques
Red Teaming
Adversarial review in a Blue vs. Red split-screen. Each sub-argument gets a structured adversary critique.
Coming soonAlternative Futures
Define two key drivers and generate a 2×2 quadrant of named, editable scenario cards.
Coming soonAdversary Intent
Score Capability × Intent × Opportunity per adversary and compare via radar charts.
Coming soonForesight Techniques
SWOT Analysis
Four-quadrant SWOT matrix with sourced, confidence-rated items; combine items into TOWS-style strategy options.
Open tool →Scenario Analysis
Define up to 4 scenarios with driving assumptions, narrative, and probability. Side-by-side comparison view.
Coming soonIndicators Analysis
Build a scenario-organized watch list of observable, collectible indicators; log dated, sourced status updates and see which future the evidence supports. Seeds from ACH and KAC; feeds Chronology.
Open tool →Impact Analysis
Cascade an event into impacts with likelihood, time horizon, and affected stakeholders. Export to Markdown.
Coming soonBayesian Updating
Set prior probabilities for competing hypotheses, then revise them as evidence arrives using likelihood ratios. Watch posteriors shift with every update.
Coming soonMonte Carlo Simulation
Model uncertainty by sampling inputs from chosen distributions — normal, beta, power, exponential, correlation-based, or metalog — and simulate a range of outcomes.
Coming soonDecision Support
Decision Trees
Visual decision tree builder with expected value auto-calculated at every chance node.
Coming soonDecision Matrix
Score options against weighted criteria with per-score rationale, contested flags, and a ranked, auditable result. Imports ACH hypotheses.
Open tool →Pros and Cons
Two-column (Pros / Cons) with optional weights and multi-option comparison across up to 4 options.
Coming soonRed-Yellow-Green Matrix
Color-coded status matrix with R/Y/G per cell, auto-summary row, and CSV export.
