Typical options memo
- lists the known choices
- can write the preferred option more carefully
- rarely scores the field on shared criteria
- hides why losers lost
- stops at the options already in the room
Argumont
- develops competing positions
- looks for an executable alternative
- scores options against explicit criteria
- explains why alternatives fell behind
- produces a Verdict you can inspect
The difference
Argumont treats each option as a position that must survive challenge. It can also look for an executable alternative that was not on the original list.
The Verdict is not the Decision
Argumont provides analytical judgment. You remain responsible for the final Decision.
