For students and career changers

Big calls, early.
Argued with your numbers, not averages.

The offer, the program, the loan, the field you want to move into. She keeps your situation on file, brings in the expert each question needs, and seats a board when the call shapes the next five years. Write in any language.

Start freeSee how it works

Free to start. No card.

Example. You write: “I got into a two-year MS in data science ($58k tuition) and I also have a $92k analyst offer in Austin. Can you compare them, tell me if $92k is fair, and draft my reply asking for two more weeks?” She opens 3 rooms: The MS, or the $92k offer? (The Analyst, up to 65 credits); Is $92k fair? What to counter (The Sales Leader, up to 65 credits); Ask for two more weeks (The Empath, up to 65 credits). Nothing runs until you tap.

Examples

The PhD, the switch, the move abroad.
Three people, three calls.

The ask as each person would type it, how she read it, who sat and what came back — one of them in Hebrew. Examples written for this page, not recorded runs.

PhD or industry?

Career · Board of 3

Fourth-year chemistry undergrad. I have a funded PhD offer ($36k stipend, five to six years) and a $78k job at a battery startup. I like research, but I’m not sure I want to be a professor.

Chief of staff

This shapes the next six years — worth a board. I’d seat The Scientist, The Analyst and The Futurist.

  • The FuturistTrend Spotter

The board’s call

Take the startup job and keep the PhD door open: ask the program to defer for a year.

You said you’re not sure about a professorship. A year at the startup tests the research you actually like — at $78k instead of $36k — and you go into the PhD knowing why.

Confidence63 · Moderate

The Scientist disagreed

“Funded offers don’t always defer. If this one won’t, you may be applying again from scratch.”

Teacher to UX research?

Career · One expert

I’ve taught middle school for seven years ($54k). I want to move into UX research. A bootcamp is $14k and six months. Is that the right way in?

Chief of staff

The Designer can answer what hiring managers look for in a first UX researcher — and whether a bootcamp is it.

  • The DesignerUX/UI Expert

Asked first

Have you run any research with real users yet — even unpaid?

Not yetA littleA few projects

The call · The Designer

Skip the bootcamp for now. Run three small research projects for local nonprofits by March, then decide.

A first UX research hire is judged on the studies they’ve run. Seven years of watching how people learn is closer than you think, and three real case studies cost you evenings, not $14k.

A master’s abroad?

Career · One expert

התקבלתי לתואר שני באמסטרדם. שכר הלימוד 16 אלף אירו לשנה, ויש לי עבודה טובה בתל אביב, 19 אלף ברוטו. שווה לעזוב?

Chief of staff

את זה שווה לחשב עם ה-CFO: כמה התואר עולה באמת, כולל שנתיים בלי משכורת, ומתי הוא מחזיר את עצמו.

  • The CFOFinancial Controller

The call · The CFO

לא לעזוב עכשיו. לבקש דחייה בשנה, ובשנה הזו לבדוק אילו תפקידים התואר באמת פותח.

שנתיים בלי משכורת ועוד שכר הלימוד מסתכמים ביותר מחצי מיליון ₪. זה מחזיר את עצמו רק אם התואר מוביל לתפקיד שאי אפשר להגיע אליו מכאן.

What she handles

Your situation, kept.
Your next step, written.

Offers, deadlines and loans on file; the emails written out; one first step with a date.

Your situation, on file.

Offers, deadlines, loans, what you said you want. Each fact shows where it came from, and your life stays apart from any work you bring her.

Asked about you first.

When the answer depends on your life — your rent, your loan, what you want — the expert asks before answering. Being asked is never charged.

The email, written.

The deferral request, the reply asking for more time, the cover letter — it comes back as the whole piece.

One step, this week.

Each room ends in one first step with a date. It waits under Open until it’s done.

The experts

Experts with no stake
in what you choose.

Not a parent, not a recruiter, not a professor who needs a student. The Analyst runs the numbers, The Futurist asks where the field is going, The Empath asks how it sits with you. They’re AI, and they say so.

Questions

Fair questions.
Straight answers.

What students ask before they bring her the first call.

Or see pricing · every use case

Is it free for students?

Free to start — 150 credits every month + 250 to start. Talking to her is free within a daily allowance, and most career questions need one expert: the card says up to 65 credits before anything runs.

Can it compare two offers?

Yes. Paste or photograph both offers and she keeps the numbers on file. One expert compares them against what you told her you want — or a board argues it when the call is close.

Will it just tell me to follow my passion?

No. Each expert holds a position, and every board is built with someone whose job is to argue against the obvious answer. You get the call, the numbers it rests on, and the dissent.

Can I write in my own language?

Yes. Write in your language and she and the experts answer in it — Hebrew included, right to left.

What if the experts are wrong?

They can be — they’re AI. That’s why an expert asks first when the answer turns on something only you know, why a board seats experts on opposite sides and on different AI models, and why every memo shows its confidence, who disagreed and what would change the call. The call stays yours.
