## What is Cold Take?

Cold Take is a private decision journal for the calls that matter.

When you make a meaningful decision, write down what you chose, why, what you expect to happen, and how confident you are. Cold Take brings the entry back later so you can judge what actually happened with a cooler head.

Over time, you build a calibration record of your own judgement: where you are sharp, where you are overconfident, and which kinds of calls tend to age well.

Features:
- Log a decision in under a minute
- Set confidence, stakes, and return dates
- Get local reminders for first looks and optional deep-freeze reviews
- Rate outcomes against what you expected
- Search, filter, and delete takes
- See calibration and pattern insights
- Export your record as JSON or CSV
- Sync privately with iCloud

Cold Take does not use ads, tracking, social feeds, or AI calls. Your decision record is stored on-device and synced through your private iCloud database when iCloud is available.
