Common questions

What is an AI journal?

An AI journal is a diary that can read back what you have written. You still write in your own words. The AI helps you find things, notice what has changed and talk entries through, starting from your own record rather than a blank chat.

What Everglow does with your entries

  • Ask your journal a question, such as “What did I decide about the move?”, and check the answer against the original entries.
  • Talk things through with a companion that draws on what you have written.
  • Revisit the people and places you write about, with the moments they appear in.
  • See a map of who connects to whom across your journal.

What it doesn’t do

  • It doesn’t write your entries for you.
  • It can make mistakes. Check important details against your original entries, and correct the AI when it misreads something.

Getting started

Start free with 7 journal entries and 10 companion chat turns. Bring older writing in through Markdown, plain-text, CSV or JSON import.

Is an AI journal the same as a chatbot?

No. A chatbot starts from nothing. An AI journal starts from your own record, so its answers are about your life.

Which AI does Everglow use?

You choose: an on-device model, your own API key, or optional Everglow Cloud.
