How it works
Rate reversibility
Hard-to-reverse decisions get flagged for stricter sign-off and documentation rigor.
Get a review date
A follow-up date is calculated from your chosen review window so the decision doesn't go unrevisited.

Frequently asked questions
Why record rejected alternatives?
Teams often forget why an option was ruled out and re-debate it later. Recording the alternative saves that debate from repeating.
Why does reversibility matter?
A one-way-door decision (hard to reverse) deserves more scrutiny and stakeholder sign-off than an easily reversible one, so the tool adjusts its recommended rigor accordingly.
Where should I store these records?
Anywhere your team already keeps documentation — a wiki page, a shared doc, or a dedicated decisions log — as long as it's consistently used and searchable later.
