Abstract: Abstract In the age of Machine Learning Algorithms, Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing, digital technologies have become interwoven in various aspects of society, including in our practices for ethical deliberation and decision-making. In this study, we present a systematic mapping and taxonomy of digital tools designed explicitly for this purpose and published between 2010 and 2023. By providing a comprehensive overview of the landscape, we identify the key features and mechanisms employed to facilitate ethical deliberation. This research enhances our understanding of the potential role that digital tools can play in supporting ethical decision-making processes, offering valuable insights for ethicists, educators, government organizations, and private institutions seeking to develop, deploy, or utilize such tools.
