Exploring a choice can be difficult because known facts, guesses and preferences look similar when they are all in one note. A structured draft can separate them. Name what you know, what you need to check and what matters to you before asking for options or a set of questions.
For shopping & comparisons, start by describing the part that is awkward in your own words. A broad goal can contain several different tasks. Choose the one you want to draft now, then add the obstacle and the time you can spend. You do not need a complete story to begin.
You can skip a question that does not fit. An unanswered detail should stay unknown. If you want a different tone, choose Plain English or change your own description before using the draft. The structure comes from the topic; the facts should come from you.

What good looks like
Keep generated suggestions separate from evidence you collected yourself. Check source material and arithmetic where relevant. Criteria are a way to organise a choice, not proof that it is correct. A useful next step names a question to examine rather than treating a confident answer as a fact.
For “Criteria for the purchase”, the criteria gives you a piece to read and adapt. Check it against your answers, mark anything that needs a fact you have not supplied and decide whether it is the next piece you actually need. Keep only what fits your situation.
For “Shortlist”, the shortlist gives you a piece to read and adapt. Check it against your answers, mark anything that needs a fact you have not supplied and decide whether it is the next piece you actually need. Keep only what fits your situation.
For “Comparison table”, the table gives you a piece to read and adapt. Check it against your answers, mark anything that needs a fact you have not supplied and decide whether it is the next piece you actually need. Keep only what fits your situation.
For “Best-value pick”, the recommendation gives you a piece to read and adapt. Check it against your answers, mark anything that needs a fact you have not supplied and decide whether it is the next piece you actually need. Keep only what fits your situation.

Criteria for the purchase
You get a prioritised list for criteria for the purchase, marked by what to do first and what can wait. Because time is the pinch, the criteria is built to be used in short sittings: AI drafts criteria for the purchase first, and you spend your minutes correcting rather than starting from blank. Because you also named not sure where to start, it starts with one clear question. Plan to have a first version in place this month and review it once.
1. Do first: a 20-minute start on criteria for the purchase. 2. Next: remove one blocker — not enough time. 3. Then: set a weekly 20-minute slot. 4. Can wait: anything that doesn't move "Make steady progress without it taking over my week" forward.
This example uses made-up answers (goal: steady progress; obstacles: time and knowing where to start). Yours is built from your own answers.
What we'll ask you

- What matters most?

Questions
Does the draft establish that an idea is right?
No. AI can organise information and draft questions, criteria or options. It cannot replace your checks or turn a generated suggestion into evidence. Keep real observations separate and seek appropriate expertise for decisions that need professional advice.
What information should I start with?
Describe the choice, what you already know and one uncertainty. Include constraints such as time or available resources when you want them reflected in the draft. You can leave out private details and keep missing facts open instead of asking the AI to guess.
What does the free version include?
Standard plans are available in every area without a card. The draft uses your answers, and you can skip anything or choose Plain English. Voice options depend on the browser. Start with one question or topic and inspect the text before using it elsewhere.
