A decision-making studio · coming soon

Convene a board of advisors for every big decision.

Bring your hardest call to a panel of minds you trust. They argue it out in rounds — positions, rebuttals, a real vote — and hand you a verdict, the dissent, and the why. You write the question in plain Markdown; they do the thinking.

No login. No noise. One email when it's ready.

## Should we raise prices 20% this quarter?

  • Derek Sivers conditional
  • Alex Hormozi yes
  • Annie Duke conditional
  • Pieter Levels yes
Verdict · Conditional yes raise it — but grandfather your first 50 customers

The biggest calls in a small business — pricing, hiring, a pivot, a launch — get made on a gut feeling and a quick poll in Slack. They deserve a real room.

How it works

Three steps to a verdict you can defend.

  1. 01

    Write the question

    State your decision in a plain text file — the kind you'd type into any notes app. Add as much context as you like. No code, no setup.

    Pick your board

    Choose advisors whose judgement you trust — each one carries a real thinker's frameworks, biases, and vocabulary. Three to five is the sweet spot.

    Let them deliberate

    Each advisor writes a position. Then they read each other's and push back. Minds change. You get a final vote, the sharpest dissent, and the reasoning behind both.

The deliberation

A debate, not a one-shot answer.

Single answers flatter you. A real board disagrees, defends, and occasionally changes its mind in the room. advisors.chat runs the rounds so the friction actually happens.

Round 1

Seat the room

The right advisors for this question are chosen — and you approve the lineup before anyone speaks.

Round 2

Open positions

Every advisor argues their stance in their own voice, with numbers — cost, upside, risk — and an opening vote.

Round 3

Rebuttals & final vote

They read each other and push back — who's wrong and why. Some change their vote. You get the honest tally.

Meet the board

Borrow the best judgement in the world.

Start from a roster of sharp, distinctive thinkers — then add the voices you wish were in your corner. Each advisor reasons the way the real one does, not as a generic chatbot.

First principles, leverage, and the long game of compounding.

Separates decision quality from luck. Probabilities, not certainties.

Teresa Torres

Your own advisor

A mentor, a hero, a board member you wish you had. Describe them once; seat them forever.

What you walk away with

Not a chat log. A decision packet.

The written report

Every position and rebuttal in full, a vote tracker showing who moved, the key tensions, and a clear recommendation.

An interactive dashboard

Sliders for the assumptions that matter — price, conversion, hours — that recalculate the impact live and show the votes shift.

A shareable PDF

Print-clean and ready to drop in front of a co-founder, a partner, or your own future self when the doubt creeps back in.

Who it's for

Built for the operator without a boardroom.

Founders, solo operators, agency owners, and prosumers making the calls that don't fit in a spreadsheet — and don't warrant a $500/hour consultant. The decisions where being half-right is expensive.

  • Pricing & packaging
  • First or next hire
  • Launch or wait
  • Pivot or persist
  • Build vs. buy
  • Where to focus this quarter
