We often have to take decisions. Arbitrium is an app that will help you take the right one in a simple and rational way. Establish the criteria you need to consider and then rate each option you have available. The option with the highest score will be the best one. Arbitrium is based on the weighted decision matrix concept and will help you take decisions such as: Which car should I buy? Which bank should I choose for a mortgage? Where should I go on vacation? Which job offer should I accept? Which nursery should I choose for my child?

Compare your options against the criteria that matter to you — scored, weighted, and totalled so the best choice rises to the top. No gut feeling required. Just clarity. HOW IT WORKS Add your options and criteria, set a weight for each criterion, then score each option from 1 to 10. Good Decision multiplies scores by weights and surfaces the option that best fits your priorities — not anyone else's. AI-POWERED CREATION On supported devices, Apple Intelligence builds your matrix for you — privately, on-device: Paste a link — AI reads the page and extracts options, criteria, and specs Paste text — drop in an article or comparison, AI structures it into a matrix Describe it — type what you're deciding, and AI suggests criteria and options For current products, pasting a link gives you accurate, up-to-date specs. Prompts work best when structure matters more than live data. Your data never leaves your device. BUILT FOR APPLE iPhone, iPad, and Mac — one purchase, all devices Decisions sync automatically via iCloud Share as an image, text, or spreadsheet Full Dark Mode support Any choice with more than one option is worth a matrix.
