Subtle Signals

A private space for your thoughts

Subtle Signals helps you notice what keeps quietly showing up — with complete privacy.

Encrypted and private

Your entries are encrypted at rest and in transit, and never used for AI training. Only you can access your journal.

Thoughtful AI responses

Receive reflective, empathetic responses that help you process your thoughts and explore new perspectives.

Personal insights

Discover emotional patterns, recurring themes, and shifts over time as you build your journaling habit.

Your privacy is not optional — it's the foundation

Journaling is deeply personal. We built Subtle Signals so that your private thoughts stay private, without compromise.

Encrypted at rest and in transit

Every journal entry is encrypted using industry-standard encryption before it is stored. Data in transit is protected with TLS. Access is strictly limited to your authenticated account.

How AI is used

When you write an entry, it is sent to our AI model to generate a thoughtful, reflective response. The AI processes your text in real time and returns a response. That's it.

Your data is never used for AI training

Your journal entries are never added to training datasets. They are never used to fine-tune, improve, or develop AI models. Your words remain yours alone.

AI does not retain your data

After generating a response, the AI does not store or remember your input. Recent entries may be included as context for more relevant reflections, but nothing persists in the model between sessions.

No third-party data sharing

We do not sell, share, or provide your journal data to advertisers, data brokers, or any other third parties. Your entries exist solely for you.

Privacy-respecting analytics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand how many people visit the site. It uses no cookies, collects no personal information, and cannot identify you. We never track what you write.

You control your data

You can delete individual entries at any time, or delete your entire account. When you delete data, it is permanently removed — no hidden backups, no retention periods beyond what's needed for the deletion process.
