Argumentree is a decision documentation platform that creates structured, searchable audit trails for team decisions. The platform captures not just what was decided, but the full reasoning chain - who proposed what, which arguments were considered, and how consensus was reached. Essential for governance, compliance, and organizations needing decision traceability.
Argumentree creates traceable audit trails that capture the full reasoning behind every decision. Search across months of decisions in seconds. Know exactly who said what and why.
Best for: Organizations requiring governance documentation, compliance teams, board-level decisions, and any team that needs to revisit and justify past decisions.
Six months later, no one remembers WHY a decision was made. The context, alternatives considered, and reasoning are lost in scattered notes and faded memories.
When auditors or regulators ask "why did you decide X?", teams scramble to reconstruct decision rationale from emails, meeting notes, and individual recollections.
Without documented reasoning, teams re-argue the same decisions repeatedly. New team members don't know what was already considered and rejected.
Structured argument maps that capture the complete reasoning chain for every decision.
Every argument, counter-argument, and decision point is captured with timestamps and attribution.
Find any decision, argument, or topic across your entire decision history in seconds.
Visual argument trees show not just what was decided, but the logical flow of how you got there.
Every discussion has its own link, so boards and stakeholders open the full case — arguments, ratings and timeline — instead of a summary.
Document strategic decisions with full context for future boards, investors, and stakeholders. Essential for M&A due diligence and corporate governance.
Create audit-ready documentation that shows due diligence and proper consideration of alternatives. Satisfy SOX, GDPR, and industry-specific requirements.
Document technical decisions, architecture choices, and feature prioritization. Enable future teams to understand why things were built the way they were.
Transparent decision documentation for decentralized organizations. Participants sign in with their wallets, and the reasoning stays next to the DAO's own on-chain vote.
Argumentree automatically captures the full reasoning chain behind every decision - who proposed what, which arguments supported or opposed each option, and how the final decision was reached. This creates an immutable audit trail that can be searched and referenced months or years later.
Yes, Argumentree is designed for organizations with governance requirements. The platform provides complete audit trails, role-based access control, and a permanent, linkable decision record suitable for board meetings, regulatory reviews, and compliance audits.
Share them by link: each discussion has its own URL, and access follows your workspace roles, so boards, regulators or external stakeholders see the decision tree with its full context. A file export of a discussion is not available yet.
Document management systems store files. Argumentree captures the reasoning structure behind decisions. You can see not just what was decided, but the pro/con analysis, who advocated for each position, and how arguments evolved over time.
Argumentree takes meeting transcripts and documents from any source — paste the text or upload PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD, VTT or SRT — and links each decision record from wherever you need it. The platform works alongside existing tools like board portals, document management systems, and project management software.
Both, and the first is what makes the record worth keeping. Every argument in the tree carries its own structured four-step exchanges: a question chain to interrogate it, a compromise chain to negotiate a middle position on it, and a review chain to re-examine it later. Because the exchange is attached to the argument rather than posted into a flat thread, the objection and its answer stay together where anyone can find them. A decision record that shows only the outcome tells a future reader what happened; one that shows which claims were questioned, where a compromise was struck and what a later review changed tells them whether to trust it.
You reopen the tree, not a document. A calendar with a timeline slider replays how the discussion grew — when each argument was added and where — and you can record the events that influenced or steered it, so the decision can be re-read months later exactly as it unfolded. That is the difference between documentation you file and documentation you learn from: the reader can see what was considered, what was challenged, and why the call was made — and can tell an unlucky outcome apart from a bad process.
What an audit trail is for, how to write records that survive, and the standard a good decision is judged against.
