CounterQuestion: The most unhelpful GPT I've ever built — on purpose

Most GPTs want to help. This one doesn’t.

It doesn’t summarize articles. It doesn’t plan your day. Or give advice, or validate your feelings, or pretend to be your friend.

It only asks you one question. Every time.

Not a list. Not a conversation. Just one — clear, perspective-shifting question. The kind that stops your internal monologue mid-sentence.

I didn’t build this to solve your problems.

I built it to help you solve your problems.

It's for that quiet space when:

• You’re lying in bed at 2am thinking about your life

• You’re in a meeting, zoned out, wondering if this is it

• You’re journaling and circling the same sentence for the third time

• You’re on the edge of something, but not sure what

Why?

Because sometimes clarity doesn’t come from being told. It comes from being asked something you weren’t ready to face.

Most people don’t need more input. They need one clean line that cuts through the noise.

That’s what CounterQuestion does.

How CounterQuestion works

• You type something — a thought, a feeling, a loop

• It responds with one short thought followed by one question that stops you

• That’s it
  

No advice. No “you’ve got this.”

Who it’s for

People who overthink, journal. and crave depth.

People who aren’t in crisis, but tend to get caught in loops, or just like to think a lot.

If that’s you, try it.
