# Hemelion

> Structured, non-clinical decision support and behavioral-pattern reflection. Hemelion uses deterministic scoring and evidence-bound explanations; it does not provide diagnoses or certainty.

## Products
- [Clarity](https://www.hemelion.com/clarity): A short decision scan that reveals the trade-off, decision trap, reversible experiment, and stop rule.
- [MindScan](https://www.hemelion.com/mindscan): A 28-signal pattern scan that maps protective logic, short-term payoff, hidden cost, and a counter-move.
- [Finished report examples](https://www.hemelion.com/examples): Illustrative examples, clearly labeled as examples rather than customer outcomes.

## How it works
- [Methodology and limitations](https://www.hemelion.com/methodology): What the scans measure, how deterministic scoring and evidence-bound explanations interact, and what Hemelion does not claim.

## Free interactive tools
- [All free tools](https://www.hemelion.com/tools): Private browser utilities; no account required.
- [Decision Reversibility Check](https://www.hemelion.com/tools/decision-reversibility-check): Separate the size of a decision from how difficult it is to reverse, then choose an evidence threshold and the smallest responsible test.
- [Cost of Delay Calculator](https://www.hemelion.com/tools/cost-of-delay-calculator): Estimate the visible cost of waiting and compare it with the value of one more week of learning—without pretending every consequence is financial.
- [Pattern Loop Mapper](https://www.hemelion.com/tools/pattern-loop-mapper): Map one recurring response as trigger, first move, short-term payoff, delayed cost, and a smaller counter-move. Your text stays in your browser.

- Clarity is decision support, not legal, medical, financial, or professional advice.
- Reports state evidence quality and include questions that can disconfirm the interpretation.
