On Telegram — capture

Send voice notes, photos, quick texts. Set reminders (/remindme call the dentist Tuesday). Ask things in the moment. No new app to open — Telegram is already in your pocket.

📊

On the web — reflect

Calendar with your mood by day, full search, trend charts, entry editing, tag management. When you sit down with a coffee on Sunday to read back the week — this is where you do it.

What your entries look like

A typical day's entries. Voice notes get a 🎙, photos a 📸. Each entry shows the mood your tone implied and the tags the AI picked up (people, places, activities, topics).

8-mile easy run along the Hudson before work. Felt strong.
OK so I'm just getting back from my run, eight miles along the Hudson. Felt really good — I kept the pace easy because I want to save the legs for the long one on Saturday. The Hudson was completely empty when I started. Just me and some birds, I think they were geese, hard to tell at 6:30 in the morning. But the sunrise was gorgeous, the whole sky pink over Jersey. I had this moment around mile five where everything just clicked, you know that feeling. The body's doing what it's supposed to and the brain just goes quiet. I was thinking a lot about the conversation with John yesterday and...

How it works in 60 seconds

No app to install. You already have Telegram (or you'll install it once).

  1. 1

    Open the bot in Telegram

    One tap. The bot greets you and creates your account.

  2. 2

    Send anything you'd journal

    A voice note about your day. A quick text. A photo of something you don't want to forget. Send it all to your bot like you would a friend.

  3. 3

    Come back to the website to browse

    Your entries listed by day, a calendar coloured by mood, a map of where you were, and an "ask" box that searches your own thoughts.

Built for privacy

Lots of "private" journals route your audio through a third-party AI provider. This one runs the AI on its own server.

AI runs on this server

Transcription, summarisation, and the chat assistant all run on the same server that holds your journal. The current configuration does not call out to third-party AI providers — verify at /status.

Encrypted at rest

Your transcripts, summaries, mood labels, and tags are stored encrypted with a per-user key. A database leak yields ciphertext for those fields. (Embeddings used for search are not encrypted in this version — see /privacy for the full story.)

Yours to take, yours to delete

One click downloads your entries, audio, photos, and embeddings as a ZIP. Another click — with a typed confirmation — removes your account from the active database. Encrypted backups are purged within 30 days.

No third parties

No Google Analytics, no Mixpanel, no Sentry, no third-party AI APIs. What you see is the whole list.

Try it for a week.

No card, no install, no decision to take back. If you don't like it, one button erases everything.
