AltiVerse β€” Fork a decision. Watch the worlds it creates. 🌱

AltiVerse β€” Fork a decision. Watch the worlds it creates. 🌱

Every big decision has a hidden second half you never get to see. AltiVerse lets you fork one choice into 2–4 alternate realities and run each forward as a small living world β€” up to ~1,000 people who move, stress out, bond, clash, spread rumours, and tell you how it felt.

It's a thinking tool for the second-order effects of a decision β€” a school phone ban, a 4-day week, 8- vs 12-hour hospital shifts β€” and a hands-on way to learn systems thinking, the scientific method, and agent-based modeling. Best of all: it's local-first, runs fully offline, and needs no account.

β€” What you can do β€”
πŸ”± Fork one decision into 2–4 alternate realities on a shared timeline
πŸ§‘β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘ Watch living worlds of people β€” friendships, rivalries, rumours, burnout
πŸ‘€ Click any person to compare how they specifically fare in every timeline
πŸ“Š See exactly when & why the worlds diverge (live metrics + divergence chart)
πŸ“ Export a full report with an executive summary and a recommendation
πŸ”’ 100% local β€” runs offline, bring any AI model (Ollama, LM Studio, OpenAI, Groq…) or none

β€” How it works β€”
A deterministic engine drives every number (same seed β†’ identical world, every run), so it's a real controlled experiment. An optional AI layer only writes the prose: in-character thoughts, interviews, headlines, and the final report. Turn the model off and everything still works.

β€” Built with β€”
Vite Β· React Β· TypeScript Β· a deterministic Mulberry32 simulation engine Β· any OpenAI-compatible model. No backend. No telemetry. Open source (MIT).

Made for the AI Γ— STEM Education hackathon πŸš€
