The tourFour steps, about two minutes. Everything runs in your browser.

Follow one choice from what you care about to a group's plan.

The question: which messenger should four friends use? The options and facts come from the app's real messaging comparison, which covers 19 apps and gives a source for every fact. Nothing you do here is uploaded.

Step 1 of 4 · ValueFig. 1. Your weights, and the order they make.

Say what matters to you

Four things people weigh when they pick a messenger. Move a slider and the order on the right changes. Nobody paid for a place in it.

A small file with your weights and no name. It opens in the app and in group agreement. What it carries.

Try this: push Easy to reach people all the way up and the other three all the way down. Guess who comes first before you look.

Step 2 of 4 · KnowFig. 2. The facts behind your first place, each with its source.

Check why it came first

Every fact is a sentence someone wrote down from a page you can open. The ones that counted most for you come first.

Loading the facts…

Open one of the brown links. If the page says something else, that is a bug worth reporting.

Think a fact is wrong? Send a correction with its source, or keep your own facts file, in fact repair.

Step 3 of 4 · DecideFig. 3. Four values files, side by side.

See where four friends agree, and where they split

Ada, Ben, Cy and Dee each made a file like yours and handed them round. The table adds them up. Nobody's file was uploaded anywhere, and anyone with the same four files gets the same table.

Who

agreed: every weight within 2 of the otherssplit: set aside as neutral in the plan

Cy wants everything at once. Every group has a Cy.

Step 4 of 4 · ActFig. 4. What the four of them would do, with the reason for each line.

Turn it into a plan

Their shared weights, applied to the same facts. What they split on counts as neutral, so nobody's strongest view quietly wins.

Devil's advocate. "Every weight within 2 of the others" is a generous rule for four friends. Forty people would split on almost everything, and a real group needs a better rule than this demo's. The group agreement tool shows the whole spread instead of one yes or no.

A plan is a suggestion the group chooses to commit to. It keeps the reason for each line and who disagreed. Make a shared plan.
