All questions

Straight answers.

Is Contemplate therapy?

No. Contemplate is for people who are well but unclear. If you're dealing with a mental-health condition, please see a qualified professional — we'll tell you honestly if that's the better path. If you're in therapy, Contemplate works alongside it.

Can it help with a decision I'm stuck on?

That is what it is built for. Bring the real question (a job offer, a relationship, a conversation you keep replaying) to the Adioscope, your private decision journal. Guided prompts and the principles help you hear which choice brings you more peace, and your coach helps you apply it. It never decides for you.

How much does it cost?

In India: ₹1,999 a month, ₹4,999 a quarter (about ₹1,666 a month) or ₹8,999 a year (about ₹750 a month). Outside India the plans section shows prices in USD. Every plan starts with 15 days free, and you can cancel any time.

How does the WhatsApp coach work?

After you join, your coach, Tarun Gulati, the founder, messages you on WhatsApp, helps you build your training plan and works through it with you as real situations come up. Messages are unlimited, and your coach replies within 24 hours.

Do I need meditation experience?

No. Contemplation is not meditation: it is a structured way of thinking a real question through. You need the question, your coach and 15–30 minutes a day.

Who is it for?

People who are well but unclear: anyone who overthinks decisions, and parents, students, leaders, athletes and yoga teachers who want a calmer, clearer mind. See the Who it's for pages for each.

How is this different from Headspace or Calm?

Those apps help you pause and relax in the moment. Contemplate is training, not a relaxation aid: you learn mind fitness principles and a structured way to think through real situations, so you actually resolve what's making you restless instead of only soothing it.

Is Contemplate religious or spiritual?

No. The framework is 100% secular and practical — grounded in observation, logic and how the mind actually works. No religion, dogma or belief system required.

How much time does it take?

About 15–30 minutes of daily practice, built into your existing routine.

Is my Adioscope private?

Yes. Your Adioscope is private. No one, not even your coach, reads it. AI reads it only if you turn that on. The Adioscope isn't AI telling you what to do; it helps you find your own answer.

Who is my coach?

Today, every member works directly with Tarun Gulati, the founder of Contemplate. As we grow, every new coach is trained and certified by him. Your coach replies within 24 hours.

Will the coach contact my teenager? Will they ask for OTPs or card details?

No. Your coach works only with you and never contacts your teen. All contact is through Contemplate's official WhatsApp, and your coach will never ask for OTPs, card details or passwords.

Can I use Contemplate alongside therapy?

Yes. Contemplate is mind fitness, not treatment, and it doesn't replace care from a therapist or doctor. Many people use both: therapy for what needs clinical support, Contemplate for clarity in everyday decisions. Your coach won't diagnose or advise against your treatment. If you're unsure, ask your therapist.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time. Your access continues until the end of the billing period you've paid for.

Is there a refund?

Yes. Your first payment is taken when the 15-day free trial ends. Ask within 7 days of that payment and we refund it in full, whichever plan you chose. It applies once, to a new membership; renewals are not refundable. See the refund policy.

Can I pay with UPI?

Not yet. You can pay by debit or credit card today, and we're working on adding UPI.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every plan starts with 15 days free: you pay ₹0 today, and checkout shows the exact date of your first payment. You add a debit or credit card at checkout so your membership carries on without a gap. Cancel before the trial ends and you pay nothing.

I have a partner code. Where do I use it?

Under the plans, tap “Have a partner code?” and enter it. If it is valid you will see your partner and any discount before you pay.

Where do I use Contemplate?

Contemplate is a web platform: it runs in the browser on your phone or computer, and your coach is on WhatsApp. There is nothing to download.

What does my coach not do?

Your coach doesn't diagnose, treat, or give medical, psychological, legal or financial advice, and coaching is not an emergency service.

Hope is not a strategy. Training is.
