CONVERSATION · REFLECTION · EVERYDAY LIFE

How PentOme works.

PentOme is an AI conversation and reflection companion. Bring a question, an idea or something on your mind. You don’t need to know The Five or organise your thoughts first.

YOUR FIRST VISIT

Begin with your own words.

To talk, create an account or sign in, complete the short welcome if you’re new, then start a conversation. “I’m not sure where to begin” is enough. You can also read the public articles first.

Ask for a different perspective, correct a misunderstanding or keep things simple.

Keeping a Journal reflection and creating an Action are choices you make. A conversation can simply be a conversation.

PENTOME PROCESS

A continuing path through experience.

Awareness → Insight → Intention → Action → Review → new Awareness.

This is a way to explore, not a checklist. Pause, revisit a stage or skip what doesn’t help. Not every insight needs an action.

ONE EVERYDAY EXAMPLE

“I keep putting something off.”

This illustrative example shows one possible path, not a real conversation or a promised outcome. Your circumstances may lead somewhere different.

Awareness

Notice what’s happening.

Explore what you’re thinking, doing, sensing, feeling and wanting, when those perspectives are useful.

See this in the example

I keep putting off an email. I’m worried about the response, and I’m tired.

Insight

See what connects.

Consider possible connections and patterns. An interpretation is something to check, not a verdict about you.

See this in the example

Perhaps I’m waiting for perfect wording because I want to avoid a difficult conversation.

Intention

Choose what matters.

Ask what you want to give attention to, including your responsibilities, needs and practical circumstances.

See this in the example

I want to communicate clearly and respectfully, without solving everything in one message.

Action

Decide what’s next.

Choose a realistic next step if one would help. Pausing, asking for support or continuing to reflect can also be useful.

See this in the example

I’ll draft the main point for ten minutes, without sending it yet.

Review

Learn from what happens.

Return to what happened, what helped and what you would change. Experience gives the next conversation a starting point.

See this in the example

Writing the draft made the question clearer. I want to check one detail before sending it.

OVER TIME

Keep a thread you can return to.

Return to saved conversations, Journal entries and Actions to revisit what mattered. PentOme can draw on relevant conversation and selected information about you. It does not automatically remember everything you say.

In Me, review the information available about you and use its edit or remove controls. Possible interpretations are marked separately from what you have confirmed. Manage conversations, Journal entries and Actions in their own areas.

How privacy and memory work →

You can talk naturally.

The Five, Awareness, Core Principles and Supporting Lenses offer ways to explore when they are useful. You don’t need to categorise yourself or use them in every conversation.

PentOme’s AI can misunderstand or suggest an interpretation that doesn’t fit. Question it, correct it or leave it aside. PentOme supports reflection; it is not a therapist, doctor or emergency service.
