## What is Cogent AI?

Every choice you regret starts the same way: a strong urge and a fast yes. A big purchase, a late night out, a snap decision — Cogent puts a smart, science-backed pause between the impulse and the action, so you decide with your rational mind, not your reflexes.

HOW COGENT WORKS

1. Brain dump — Capture any urge by text or voice the moment it strikes.
2. Bias check — Cogent's AI instantly names the bias driving you (optimism bias, FOMO, scarcity, present bias) and estimates the real cost in money and time.
3. Cooling-off lock — High-stakes impulses are quarantined for a cooling-off period. The urge fades; clarity returns.
4. Socratic interrogation — When the timer ends, an AI coach asks the sharp questions that expose what you're really chasing — and whether it fits your goals.
5. Post-mortem — Rate how it played out. Cogent learns your patterns and updates your Rationality Score.

WHY IT WORKS

- Grounded in behavioral economics — the same biases that hijack your decisions, made visible.
- The 10-10-10 framework: how will you feel in 10 minutes, 10 months, 10 years?
- A Regret Ledger that turns hindsight into a real track record.
- A Rationality Score that climbs from Reactive to Strategic to Cogent as your decisions sharpen.
