Oracle — Predictions That Survive Any Outcome

The Effect

One device. A real prediction.

The spectator makes free choices. You hand them your phone. They see a hand-written note in the real Notes app that describes exactly what just happened.

Set the stage

Pick an effect, configure the variations once, and rehearse with a dedicated test mode that shows the input zones.

Capture the choice

The spectator decides — freely and visibly. Their inputs are captured discreetly, in any of the ways listed below.

Reveal

Pull out your phone, open Notes, hand it over. The matching prediction is already there — written on your real iOS Notes app.

The reveal lives in YOUR REAL iOS Notes app.

Not a fake screen that imitates Notes. Oracle writes the matching prediction into your actual Notes app through a shortcut, so the spectator scrolls, swipes back to other notes, even searches. Everything is real.

This is why Oracle works on examination. You can hand the phone over and walk away. Everything is clean!

Rock Paper Scissors — Tuesday

You'll play paper, then rock, then scissors.
I'll start with scissors which cuts your paper. You'll equalize on round two — we'll both pick rock. And I'll finish by choosing rock again, which crushes your scissors. 2-0 for me, with one tie.

Use Cases

Built for the effects you actually perform.

Six preset families, each tunable for your own routines. Use the included starter packs or compose new ones from scratch.

Choices

Guess your spectator's choices

Predict where the spectator hides an imaginary coin, left or right, across multiple rounds

Duel

The ultimate Rock Paper Scissors prediction

Predict the outcome of a Rock Paper Scissors duel — best of 3 or 5
Narrate every round, move by move

Free Will

Confabulation

Multi-slot stories

Adaptive Text

One template. Every outcome.

Compose your narration with placeholders — Oracle resolves them to match the actual choices. Write once, perform forever.

Choices · Which hand

Template You'll play {choice1}, {choice2} then {choice3}.

I'll call your first picks correctly the first two times, but miss the last one to keep things interesting ;)

Rendered You'll play left, right then left.

I'll call your first picks correctly the first two times, but miss the last one to keep things interesting ;)

Duel · Rock Paper Scissors

Template You'll start by playing {choiceS1} that beats my {choiceP1}.

Then we'll tie by both choosing {choiceS2}.

And I'll finish by winning the last point with {choiceP3}.

Final score 1-1, so everyone's happy :D

Rendered You'll start by playing paper that beats my rock.

Then we'll tie by both choosing rock.

And I'll finish by winning the last point with scissors.

Confabulation · Story from free answers

Template The {feeling} feeling you had when you first saw {place} stays with you.

That's where you met {person} — and everything changed.

Rendered The bittersweet feeling you had when you first saw Paris stays with you.

That's where you met your best friend — and everything changed.

Multiple placeholders across every effect — choices, scores, free-text answers, conditional logic, and more. Bank-style storage means every possible outcome gets its own narration.

Ecosystem

Plays well with the tools you already use.

Oracle reads live values from external services and weaves them into the prediction text — no copy-paste, no second device.

Native integrations

Pull a value from a third-party utility and inject it directly into your narration. Each integration exposes its own variable, ready to drop into any template.

FAQ

Common questions.

Everything performers ask before getting Oracle.

Does Oracle work on iOS and Android?

Oracle is iOS only.

Which iPhone models are supported?

Any iPhone running iOS 13 or later. Optimized for iPhone 11 and newer.

Does Oracle work offline?

Yes — once a preset is saved, no connection is required for a performance. Internet is only needed for optional integrations (Inject, Elips, AI prompt generation, audio recognition with GPT-4o).

Do I need an OpenAI API key?

Only if you want the AI-assisted audio recognition or the AI-prompted preset generation. Every other feature works without it.

How long does it take to learn?

Starter presets are ready out of the box — pick one, learn the input gesture, and you're performing in under 10 minutes. Building your own preset with custom narrations takes about 30 minutes the first time, and far less once you're used to the editor.

Is the reveal on the spectator's phone?

No — the reveal happens on the performer's real iOS Notes app. The spectator never needs to install or touch anything ahead of time.

How does the prediction show in the real Notes app?

Through a simple, direct iOS Shortcut — Oracle writes the matching note and opens it for you automatically.

Are the reveals only in Notes?

Notes is the primary reveal canvas, but Oracle also supports image-based reveals — and you can combine both for routines that need a visual punchline.

Can the spectator examine my phone after the reveal?

Absolutely. The prediction lives in the real Notes app — they can scroll, swipe to other notes, even search. Everything is genuine.

Can I share my presets with other performers?

Yes — export any preset as a JSON file, send it to a peer, and they import it in seconds. Same for routines.
