Private by design
- The listener runs inside your browser, on your own computer.
- Your voice and words are never uploaded. We can't read them.
- No account for your first 3 calls. After that we keep only your name, email and how many calls you've had.
Questions
- Is this therapy?
- No. Speaking Diary is an AI listener for getting things off your chest. It isn't a therapist, doctor or crisis service, and it doesn't give advice.
- Is it really private?
- Yes. The listener runs inside your browser on your own computer. Your voice and words are never uploaded to us or anyone else.
- Is it free?
- Yes, during early access. Your first 3 calls need no account; after that, sign in with Google or Facebook to keep going.
- Why is there a 2.5 GB download?
- That's the listener itself, an AI model that runs on your device instead of in the cloud. It starts downloading in the background as soon as you open the site, once; after that it starts in seconds and works offline.
- Does it work on my phone?
- Not yet. For now it needs a desktop or laptop with Chrome, Edge or Safari. Phones are coming next.
