Designed to pick from a pasted option list using either one random choice or a best-of series, this tool applies decision settings to options and decision format and presents the decision summary for review.
Decision workflow
Pick from a pasted option list using either one random choice or a best-of series. Keep options and decision format visible while you choose once from several acceptable options, then review the decision summary.
For this case, set options and decision format, then choose “Start decision round.” Check the decision summary before sharing or putting the result into use.
The Decision Wheel result still needs organizer review. The tool is for low-stakes choices rather than medical, legal, financial, or safety decisions. The same option may be selected in more than one round of a series.
