The method
A human check you can only pass outside.
- 01
You receive a personalized mission
A brief, safe, observation-driven task — generated by Gemma when the backend is reachable, or selected from a built-in set otherwise. Every mission shows which source created it.
- 02
You disappear into the world
Lock your phone. No tracking, camera uploads, or open browser tabs needed. A timestamp-based guide lets you step away completely.
- 03
Adaptive return dialogue
When you return, you answer one mission-specific question and explore an adaptive follow-up grounded directly in what you observed.
- 04
Your Field Report is preserved
A thoughtful field journal entry with your observation, AI insight, and takeaway — honestly labelled as self-reported on your device.
Privacy, plainly.
- No account, no GPS, no camera required.
- Your challenges and reflections are stored only in this browser.
- When Gemma is connected, only your preferences — and, for a reflection, the challenge title and your written observation — are sent to the StepOut backend.
- No photo is collected, and nothing is labelled “verified” unless a real check happened.
