Occam's Razor
Map a problem, test the claims
Free
Map a problem, attack the claims it rests on, and keep what survives. Solve research problems by doing your own work, then publish to the community with citations.
Occam turns a research question into a structure you can attack.
Most AI tools hand you a confident paragraph. Occam does the opposite: it lays out the claims your question actually rests on, shows you which ones are carrying the weight, and then tries to break them. It also has an option to transform technical properties of research into easy-to-understand terminology, in any language.
MAP THE PROBLEM
Describe what you are trying to work out. Occam builds a graph of the claims involved: the question at the centre, the factors around it, what constrains what, and the unknowns still in the way. You can add claims, open any one of them up and work inside it, or import a paper and pull claims straight out of the text.
ATTACK THE CLAIMS
This is the part other tools do not do. Occam finds the claim carrying the most unresolved weight and looks for the specific case where it fails: a regime it does not cover, an assumption it smuggles in, a place where it is true but does no work. Whatever the attack finds is recorded against that claim and travels with it from then on, so the same objection is never raised twice.
It also looks for what is absent. An absence only counts when something on the map is resting on it.
ASK ABOUT YOUR OWN MAP
Study chat reads the whole structure, including what has been tested and what the tests found. Ask which claim would take the most down with it, or where the map is thinnest, and the answer is about your study rather than the subject in general.
HONEST NUMBERS
Occam does not show you a confidence score, because a model's opinion of its own output is not evidence. It shows counts you can check: how many load-bearing claims have been tested, how many have been ruled out, how many links you have typed. A claim that survives a test is described as having survived one test. Nothing is ever called proven.
Ruling something out is progress, and Occam says so.
WRITE IT UP
Turn the map into a draft, a set of solutions ranked by what the structure supports, or a small experiment you can actually run. Export as a document and share it anywhere.
FREE AND PAID
The free tier includes five cloud reasoning runs a month, enough for one complete study, using the same models as every paid tier. Pro, Advanced and Commercial raise the monthly allowance for heavier or professional use. Subscriptions renew monthly and can be cancelled any time in Settings.
Occam is a thinking tool. It does not replace professional medical, legal or financial advice.
