Editorial overview
The Life Decision Engine analyzer is a structured workspace for decisions that feel too big for a pros-and-cons list. You describe your situation in plain language — what you are deciding, the context, and constraints you will not move (money, geography, family, ethics). The engine produces a private report: scenarios (best, worst, likely), four lenses (finances, psychology, risks, opportunities), a timeline, and a score.
This is not a chatbot that improvises advice. The output follows a fixed editorial framework we maintain and review. It helps you think clearly — not replace a therapist, lawyer, or financial planner. For regulated topics we link to the experts directory and blog articles on when to involve a professional.
What you get in a report
- Scenarios — three concrete futures to compare side by side.
- Four lenses — money, emotional load, downside risk, and upside you may discount.
- Timeline — what tends to change at six months, two years, and five years.
- Score — a comparative signal, not a verdict. Use it to notice trade-offs.
Free vs Premium
The free tier runs the full framework with fair-use limits. Premium adds deeper runs, history, and reminders — see pricing. Payments use Stripe; we never store card numbers.
Privacy and data use
Your decision text is sent to our servers only when you run an analysis. We do not publish your questions or sell them. See Privacy Policy and How we use AI.
This page vs the home analyzer
The same engine powers the workspace on the home page. This URL lets you bookmark the tool or land from search. Standards match editorial standards.
Frequently asked
- Is this medical, legal, or financial advice?
- No. It is educational software. For diagnosis, contracts, tax, or investments with real money at stake, consult a licensed professional.
- Can I use the report with my therapist or lawyer?
- Yes — many readers paste the scenario summary so sessions focus on the real fork in the road.
- Who maintains the frameworks?
- The Life Decision Engine editorial team. See editorial team.
In a crisis, contact local emergency services — this tool is not monitored for urgent messages. See Disclaimer.
