Everything you need for self-help

A thought journal, exercises, tests, courses, and chats with the AI assistant.

A CBT journal to challenge anxious thoughts

Write down what’s on your mind. The journal helps you separate facts from assumptions, spot cognitive distortions, and put the thought to the test.

Open the journal

An AI assistant for working through a hard situation

Describe what happened. The assistant starts with what it notices, offers a specific technique — a thought record, grounding, a breathing practice — and asks no more than one question at a time.

Exercises for anxiety and acute stress

Audio and written exercises help you release physical tension, shift your attention, or wind down for sleep. They draw on CBT, DBT, and ACT.

Choose an exercise

Tests for anxiety, mood, sleep, and burnout

Screening questionnaires show how strong your symptoms are and help you track changes over time. The result is a starting point, not a diagnosis.

Take a test

Structured courses for working through anxiety

Each course takes one problem and works through it lesson by lesson, with something to practice after each one. The first module is free.

Guides and articles on anxiety, stress, and sleep

Privacy

Only you
can see your entries

Your entries are for your eyes only. That’s why the app has a PIN lock and encryption.

End-to-end encryption

Entries are encrypted right on your device. The server receives only encrypted text, which can’t be read without your passphrase.

PIN lock

Set a four-digit PIN for your journal and chats. Even on an unlocked phone or computer, your entries stay locked.

Control over your data

Delete a single entry or the entire journal in one tap. Your data is never sold or used for ads.
