Implemented

Implemented: runs on the shared runtime with supplied material. One bounded development check on 2026-10-12 took 138.7s with 13 model calls and ended "incomplete". That is a development signal, not an evaluation. Customer access is by approved account.

What you send

  • The decision
  • Priorities and constraints
  • Facts or notes the person supplies
  • Text material up to 150,000 characters per run

What comes back

  • Personalized decision brief with tradeoffs, untested beliefs and missing evidence.
  • Findings with the located quote and a support status from claim review
  • Release status: released, incomplete with reasons, or failed
  • Executed roles, usage and measured cost

Sample

Authored illustration. Written by Encevra to show the workflow. Not customer data and not a recorded model output.

Should I accept the job offer in Denver?

Priorities: be near family (Chicago), grow in data science, save for a house. Offer: $118k, Denver, senior analyst. Current: $96k, Chicago, no promotion path stated. Rent in Denver estimate from a friend: $1,900; my Chicago rent: $1,500.

The real response shape is documented in the API reference.

How the workflow operates

Each role is a responsibility in the workflow, served by a third party language model. More roles are not automatically better; depth and routing decide which run.

Built with

  • OpenAI
  • Anthropic

Models this engine uses: OpenAI (GPT), Anthropic (Claude). Specialists run on OpenAI models and the claim review and final brief on Anthropic models. If a provider has a temporary failure, the step can fall back to an OpenAI model, and the run records that.

Goal Clarifier

Establish what the person is optimizing for, in their own words, and rank their stated priorities.

Options Analyst

Develop the realistic choices the material supports, including deferring or keeping the status quo.

Tradeoff Reviewer

Compare the consequences of each option against the stated priorities.

Assumption Challenger

Test the beliefs each option depends on and name the evidence that is missing.

Evidence and deployment

Evidence

This engine reads the text you send in the request. Each released finding carries the exact quote and its character span in that text, located mechanically before release. Quotes that cannot be located are labelled Insufficient evidence and never shown as source verified. Interpretation is reviewed as a separate step, and gaps such as a missing clause describe what was searched instead of citing text that is not there.

Deployment

Runs on Encevra hosted infrastructure using the third party models listed above. Every model call and fallback is checked against the deployment policy first. Private cloud and air-gapped deployment are planned; discuss deployment requirements.

What it does not handle

  • Medical, legal or financial advice
  • Decisions about other people without their input
  • Uses only supplied material. No freshness guarantee beyond the documents provided.
  • Required for every output during trials.

How to integrate

Send "engine": "personal-decision" with your question and material from your server. Keys stay server side.

How to evaluate it

No published result for this workflow yet. Build a small answer key from your own work and compare against a strong single model baseline. See the evaluation checklist and method.

Cost and rights: pricing and licensing. Showing outputs to your own customers needs a written agreement.
