IkigAI Guide
A real mentor, whenever work gets hard.
IkigAI Guide is a mentor, not a chatbot with a script. It's built on ikigai, a simple idea: the work that actually fits you sits where four things overlap — what you love, what you're good at, what people genuinely need from you, and what you can be paid for. Most career advice skips straight to “what should I do” without ever answering the first four.
It also carries the Playbook with it — a library of real lessons from real professionals, not generic advice. Talk through what's actually going on and it reasons through your situation using your personality and your routine, then points you back to how someone who faced the same thing actually handled it.

The payoff
What you get out of it
Not a feature list. This is what actually changes once IkigAI Guide is part of your week.
Not just once a quarter in a review. When something's actually on your mind, you get a real, specific answer instead of sitting with it alone.
Shaped around your personality and your routine, not a generic script. What works for someone else's job doesn't always work for yours, so this doesn't pretend it does.
Small warning signs are easy to miss when you're in the middle of them. This catches the pattern before it turns into the kind of burnout that takes months to walk back.
Not a five-year plan or a framework to memorize. Just the next right move, small enough to actually do tomorrow.
