Moral Drift - Pause before you drift past your values

You don’t make bad decisions because you lack intelligence ~ you make them when your mind quietly drifts. Moral Drift is a 10-second self-check that reveals when emotion, pressure, or temptation is taking over. It shows your decision state in real time, before regret happens. We don’t need more information. We need better awareness of how we are thinking while we decide. You don’t need better decisions. You need to notice when you’re about to drift.

I built Moral Drift because I kept noticing something uncomfortable: most bad decisions don’t feel wrong when you make them. They feel justified. Under pressure, emotion, or urgency, our thinking shifts quietly ~ and we rarely notice the moment it happens. Moral Drift is a 10-second check that reveals the state you’re deciding from, not just the decision itself. It’s not about telling you what to do ~ it’s about showing you when your mind is drifting from clear thinking. If it helps even a few people pause at the right moment, it’s doing its job. Would love feedback ~ especially on whether it feels useful in real decision moments or just interesting in theory.
