Most AI tools answer your question with a single voice. You get one perspective — put simply, you get an answer. Etzava assembles a council of distinct, well-grounded perspectives chosen for your specific decision. You hear their different perspectives. You hear where they converge and where they split. Etzava lets you interact with them, both together as a council or individually with each, exploring your decision until you decide you're ready to make your decision. The magic of Etzava is it helps you reach your own answer, in your own way and at your own pace.
Etzava is a personal-decision tool, not an oracle or a Magic Eight-Ball. You bring a hard decision; it convenes a council of distinct, well-grounded perspectives — philosophies, traditions, lived and literary voices, an evidence voice where facts bear on the choice — and helps you think them through together. What you get back is the real spread of views you'd want in the room, not one consolidated answer.
The name leans on the Hebrew etzah (עֵצָה) — counsel: not a verdict handed down, but the considered advice of someone who has thought alongside you. Proverbs returns to the word again and again — “in an abundance of counselors there is safety.” That is the whole idea here: many distinct counselors around your hard decision, and the deciding left to you.
Describe what you're weighing, in plain words — no jargon needed.
Etzava convenes distinct, well-grounded perspectives for your decision — and you can tune the mix.
It maps where the voices converge and where they split — and the value driving each disagreement.
Sharp questions drawn from the council's disagreements — the ones only your answers can resolve.
Send your council back to re-deliberate on what you've shared — get sharpened perspectives and maybe new questions. Push back, add new context, or drill down with any individual council member.
You've got two ways through: ask your council what they'd do if it were their call (something to react to, never a verdict), or work your decision through time-tested exercises for weighing hard choices — until the path clears.
With the perspectives clear and the tradeoffs in view, the choice stays yours.
A four-part report from your council: where it converged, where it split (each disagreement traced to the underlying question or value driving it), the questions that only your answers can resolve — drawn from the cruxes of your council's disagreement and designed to illuminate, not steer — and each voice in full with its position and reasoning. You can ask any voice directly, learn more about its tradition, and request a recommendation at any point.
Etzava helps you decide — it will not decide for you. It does not diagnose, criticize, or push a verdict. You can ask for a recommendation from your council or from any individual voice on your council — but the dissents and concerns stay visible, so the choice stays yours.
Etzava helps you think through a hard decision yourself. It gathers a council of distinct, well-grounded perspectives — thinkers, traditions, and disciplines — shows you where they agree and disagree, asks you the questions that matter, and talks it through with you, so you're best equipped to make your most important decisions.
Ask any question where your values, not just the facts, decide the answer. And the real value is in the back-and-forth, so treat it as a conversation, and keep going until you're ready.
What are the possibilities with Etzava?
You can name a specific perspective — such as your religious faith or other beliefs — and Etzava will weave it into the council it assembles, so what matters to you is considered. This is optional, so enter something if you think it's important.
