About the Project

Decision Doppelgänger is an interactive decision-support app built with MeDo. It helps users explore important choices by simulating different versions of their future self.

The idea was inspired by a question everyone faces:

What would happen if I chose a different path?

Every major decision creates multiple possible futures. One version of you accepts the job. Another starts the business. Another waits. Another moves city, changes career, studies a new skill, rejects the offer, or takes the risk.

Decision Doppelgänger turns that idea into a structured reflection tool. Instead of giving a simple yes or no answer, the app helps users compare possible choices through future-self perspectives, trade-offs, benefits, risks, regrets, opportunities, and long-term consequences.

The goal is not to predict the future perfectly. The goal is to help users think more clearly before making important decisions.

What It Does

Decision Doppelgänger helps users compare possible decisions by generating different “future selves” for each option.

Users can:

  • Enter a decision they are facing
  • Add multiple possible choices
  • Compare future outcomes
  • View emotional, financial, career, lifestyle, and risk impacts
  • Generate future-self perspectives
  • Identify hidden trade-offs
  • Reflect on regret potential
  • See which option aligns best with their priorities

The app is useful for decisions such as:

  • Should I accept this job?
  • Should I quit and start a business?
  • Should I move to another city?
  • Should I learn a new skill?
  • Should I take a risky opportunity?
  • Should I choose stability or growth?

The core idea is:

Better decisions come from seeing the trade-offs clearly.

A simple way to think about the app’s decision model is:



Decision Fit = Benefits + Personal Alignment - Risks - Regret Potential
