Roadmap

Here’s what we’re working on next for WhatsTheDx. Plans and timing can shift, but this is the direction we’re headed.

A stronger clinical debrief

Up next

Make the result screen the educational payoff of every daily case.

  • Explain why the diagnosis fits, the decisive clue, and the tempting distractor.
  • Show the next clinical step and one transferable high-yield pearl.
  • Capture confidence before submission and build personalized calibration feedback over time.

Reasoning-first clue progression

Up next

Turn each clue into a judgment call instead of requiring a disposable wrong guess.

  • Choose between making the diagnosis or requesting the next clue for a visible score tradeoff.
  • Optionally maintain a three-item differential: most likely, possible, and cannot miss.
  • Review how your differential changed and which clue moved the correct diagnosis to the top.

Recovery cases and mastery

Planned

Turn missed cases into a personalized spaced-retrieval learning loop.

  • Bring missed concepts back after two days, seven days, and three weeks.
  • Use short variations instead of simply repeating the original vignette.
  • Track recovery cases, mastered concepts, weak topics, and cases mastered each week.

Same-case friend challenges

Planned

Make spoiler-free results the start of another case, not the end of the session.

  • Create a challenge link that lets a friend play the same case without registering first.
  • Compare clue efficiency, confidence calibration, and reasoning after both players finish.
  • Generate recognizable specialty result cards that keep the diagnosis hidden.

A post-solve Reasoning Wall

Planned

Build useful case discussion around clinical reasoning instead of generic popularity.

  • Unlock discussion only after completing the case so answers stay protected.
  • Prompt players to share the decisive clue, leading differential, tempting distractor, or next test.
  • Recognize helpful reasoning, good differentials, and useful pearls rather than simple likes.

Professional identity and meaningful leagues

Exploring

Make competition relevant to a learner’s profession, peers, and current level.

  • Profiles with a primary field, training level, strongest domain, and developing domain.
  • Friends, school, program, graduation-year, private-class, and weekly-division boards.
  • Rankings for accuracy, clue efficiency, calibration, mastery, and streaks — not volume alone.

Case quality and study tools

Ongoing

Raise the consistency of every clue ladder and connect each case to focused review.

  • Editorial review for progressive clues, accepted aliases, answer leakage, intentional distractors, citations, and specialty-appropriate difficulty.
  • An explanation for every clue plus a clear reason the strongest distractor fails.
  • Make unpublished cases available to Pro members before their public release.
  • Anki-ready cards, one-minute concept reviews, recovery-queue saving, and custom study lists.
