An app that helps you take decisions
Can it prevent regret?
Your past self made decisions with far less information than you have today. Yet somehow, back then, the choices often felt clearer.
Why is that?
We spend so much time thinking about the future. We try to plan it, predict it, make the “right” move. But we forget something important. Our past isn’t just a collection of events. It’s full of clues about who we are and how we think.
We’ve created apps for almost everything.
For steps.
For sleep.
For weather.
For money.
But we’ve never made one to understand the decisions we make. Or why we keep making the same ones.
Imagine an app called Decider. It starts in a different way. It doesn’t ask where you want to go. It asks where you’ve already been.
When you first open it, it invites you to list the ten most important decisions you’ve made in your life. It asks why you made those choices. And what happened next.
This isn’t about good or bad decisions. It’s about building your personal map, the way you think when things really matter. Every decision you've ever made says something about you. It holds hints about your fears, your hopes, your sense of risk, and what you truly value.
Decider takes all of this, your unique patterns, and turns it into something helpful. Like a mirror that doesn’t just show you who you are, but shows you how you’ve been choosing to live.
It notices things you might miss. Like the kind of risks you usually take. Or what trade-offs you tend to accept. Maybe it helps you spot a habit, choosing comfort over growth, or action over patience.
What makes Decider different is that it doesn’t tell you what to do. It doesn’t offer shortcuts or motivational quotes. It gives you something much more valuable. It helps you hear your own logic more clearly. It helps you notice your own signals again.
Because most productivity tools are built to push you forward. Decider is different. It helps you pause. It helps you look back, not to get stuck, but to learn. Because once you understand your past, your future doesn’t feel like a big guess anymore.
We may never build an app that takes away regret.
But maybe we don’t need to. Maybe what we need is a tool that makes regret useful. One that helps it teach us. That turns it into quiet wisdom.
And maybe… that’s more than enough.
