Council

Power

An expert panel of AI models, each with a specialized perspective, providing multi-disciplinary analysis.

Overview

Council mode creates a virtual expert panel where each AI model takes on a specific role or perspective. This approach mimics how real expert committees work, bringing together diverse viewpoints for comprehensive analysis of complex problems.

Provides deep technical knowledge specific to the topic at hand.

Devil's Advocate

Challenges assumptions, identifies risks, and points out potential problems.

Practical Implementer

Focuses on real-world feasibility, execution challenges, and actionable steps.

Strategic Thinker

Considers long-term implications, broader context, and strategic alignment.

Synthesizer

Integrates all perspectives into a coherent recommendation.

Custom Expert Roles

You can define custom roles tailored to your specific needs:

Example Output

Question

"Should we adopt Kubernetes for our startup?"

Domain Expert

"Kubernetes provides excellent orchestration capabilities, but requires significant expertise. For a startup, consider managed services like GKE or EKS..."

Devil's Advocate

"At startup scale, K8s adds complexity without clear benefits. Docker Compose or even a simple PaaS might be more appropriate until you hit scale issues..."

Practical Implementer

"If you proceed, start with a managed service. Budget 2-3 months for the team to get comfortable. Have a rollback plan to simpler infrastructure..."

Synthesizer

"Recommendation: Wait until you have clear scaling needs. Start with simpler solutions, but design your architecture to be K8s-ready for future migration..."
