Thinking Modes

7 structured disciplines.

Each mode enforces a specific thinking process. IVA doesn't just answer — it structures your reasoning.

Q

QUESTION

Get clear, factual understanding. No hallucination, no speculation. Just grounded answers.

R

REVIEW

Critical evaluation of ideas, code, or plans. Identifies risks, assumptions, and logical flaws.

P

PLAN

Realistic step-by-step planning with constraints, dependencies, and risk assessment built in.

D

DIAGNOSIS

Root cause analysis. Separates symptoms from causes and identifies blind spots.

DEC

DECISION

Reasoned decisions with explicit tradeoffs, assumptions stated, and clear rationale.

SD

SYSTEM_DESIGN

Architecture thinking. Focuses on structure, boundaries, and relationships — not implementation.

S

STRATEGY

Long-term direction. Leverage, positioning, irreversible vs reversible moves.

Why IVA

Built for judgment, not speed.

Most AI tools optimize for fast answers. IVA optimizes for better decisions.

Governance-First

Built-in constitution ensures IVA never replaces your judgment. It multiplies it. Human authority is absolute.

Multi-Provider Intelligence

Auto-routes to Gemini, Groq, Ollama, or OpenRouter based on task complexity. Cheap for simple, best for complex.

Encrypted Memory

Your memories are encrypted at rest with Fernet encryption. You control what IVA remembers. Export or delete anytime.

Custom Prompts

Override any mode's system prompt. Tailor IVA's thinking style to your domain, your team, your needs.

Full Audit Trail

Every interaction is logged with provider, tokens, and cost. Complete transparency for governance and accountability.

Local-First Option

Run fully offline with Ollama. Your data never leaves your machine. Zero cloud dependency.
