Perspective Shifter
A tool to help you see 'gray areas' by reframing situations from angles you might have missed.
About This Tool
We built this for those times when you're stuck in your own head. It's a cognitive flexibility tool. You describe a situation—like a fight with a friend or a stressful meeting—and the app helps you 'try on' different viewpoints, like the optimistic view or the purely practical one.
It isn't a tool for gaslighting or debating you. It's just a mental exercise to help you move past 'binary' thinking.
The Problem It Solves
Humans have 'confirmation bias'—we tend to only see the things that prove we're already right. This makes personal growth slow and causes a lot of unnecessary conflict. This app removes that 'mental rigidity.' It gives you an objective way to see other valid points of view without you having to agree with them immediately.
When to Use This
- You're in a conflict with someone and want to understand why they might be acting the way they are.
- You're facing a personal challenge and feel 'stuck' in a negative or fearful story about it.
- You're making a big decision and want to make sure you've looked at it from every stakeholder's angle.
How It Works
The app uses an LLM trained on psychology and cognitive techniques. It finds the 'core narrative' in your story and applies different filters—like the other person's potential stress or the bigger environment—to build a more multi-dimensional view of what happened.
