About Manwe
Manwe converts important decisions or existing plans into structured decision records. The process involves bringing a question or plan, subjecting it to role-bound advisors who challenge it from multiple perspectives, and verifying evidence through searches, source ranking, and claim testing. The output is a decision record that includes the recommendation, confidence level, evidence, dissenting views, risks, forecasts, and next actions. The record is designed to preserve second opinions beyond the initial conversation, allowing for later inspection and scrutiny. The tool supports both a web app for quick cloud-based runs and a Mac beta for deeper, local-first analysis with features like governed memory, scenario testing, and model flexibility. Decision records can include forecasts, Future Paths, and a Deeper Story that examines underlying assumptions and narratives, particularly through Causal Layered Analysis.
