How Does OTTO Work as an Interactive Inquiry Companion?

OTTO is not a typical coaching tool—it doesn’t give answers, explanations, or advice. Instead, it invites exploration through carefully crafted inquiries. Whether used in sessions or for personal reflection, OTTO helps shift perspectives and uncover insights beyond familiar thought patterns.

How OTTO Works

• Inquiry-driven, not answer-based – OTTO responds only with explorative questions, never offering conclusions or advice.
• Moves beyond assumptions – It helps users notice mental loops and explore perspectives they may not have considered.
• Adapts to the user’s language – Rather than imposing rigid frameworks, OTTO meets the user where they are, using their own words and expressions.
• Offers different types of inquiries – Depending on the situation, OTTO may provide a direct question, a subtle pointer, an analogy, an exercise, or a check for understanding.
• Works as a companion, not a replacement – OTTO doesn’t replace the coach’s role but serves as a complementary tool for deeper exploration.

As a coach, OTTO allows you to engage with inquiry in a new way—both for your clients and your own practice.
