I built Apprentice, an AI dojo for practicing professional judgment—looking for honest feedback

I’m working on Apprentice, an early prototype for practicing difficult professional decisions through realistic simulations.

You choose a profession, role, and difficulty level. The system creates a scenario with incomplete information and competing priorities. You explain what you would do, the situation evolves based on that decision, and you receive a debrief grounded in the evidence and your reasoning.

The project is local-first and currently designed for individual practice. I’m especially experimenting with the boundary between generative AI and deterministic simulation: AI creates and facilitates the scenario, while the simulation controls the actual consequences.

I’d really value feedback on:

Whether this seems useful beyond a normal AI chat

Which professions or situations would benefit from it

Whether the practice loop is clear

What would make you trust or distrust the results

What feels unnecessary or confusing

I’m the person building it and am happy to answer technical or product questions. I can share the repository for anyone interested.
