An insight, a pattern, one question worth sitting with.
Speak for 60 seconds. No prompts, no structure, just say what's on your mind. Hayley reflects back three things: an insight about what you're really saying, a pattern detected across your sessions, and one question worth sitting with. Not a chatbot. Not voice notes. Not therapy. A thinking companion that pays close attention, session after session. On-device transcription. Nothing leaves your phone. 14-day free trial.
Hey everyone, I’m the builder of Hayley.
This started after I sold my last company and realised I didn’t really have a good way to process what I was thinking during high-pressure periods. Journaling felt too structured, and talking to people wasn’t always possible or helpful in the moment.
I wanted something simpler: a space where I could just speak freely for a minute and not worry about organising my thoughts.
Hayley is my attempt at that.
You talk for up to 60 seconds. No prompts. No structure. Just whatever’s in your head. Then it reflects back:
- what you seem to actually be wrestling with
- patterns across your thinking over time
- a question worth sitting with
It’s not trying to replace journaling, therapy, or note-taking, more just a lightweight way to understand your own thinking as it happens.
Would love any feedback, especially from people who think out loud a lot or have used voice notes as a thinking tool.
