Your life holds the clues.
Let’s follow a few.
A short reflection inspired by Ikigai. Bring a real moment, a little curiosity, and whatever feels uncertain. Every question is optional.
Your roots
Look for something you’ve done, helped with, or made a little better.
The clearing
A person, a community, or a problem you care about. Start close to home.
Open ground
Money, time, and energy belong in this picture too. Let’s make room for real life.

A next step that fits.
Meet MICHI, your companion through the questions. Your answers become personal field notes: a possible direction, the clues behind it, and a small experiment you can edit to suit your time, energy, and budget.
Michi uses AI to help connect your answers. The interpretation is tentative, and you can question or revise it. Your progress stays on this device; your answers are sent to AI when you request your result.
How your answers are handled
No name, email, or account needed. Your answers and field notes are saved in this browser, where you can remove them with “Clear my data”.
When you request or revise your field notes, your answers are sent through Michi to OpenAI to prepare them. Michi keeps no server-side answer history. Optional analytics measure visits and journey steps, without your answer text or field notes.
You can answer without including names or identifying details.
