## What is nodu?

nodu is personal meditation that remembers you: guided meditation for sleep, anxiety, stress and focus, written new for you every time and spoken to you.

Tell nodu what is on your mind. A habit, a goal, a worry, a night you can't settle. A line or two, or a few minutes of conversation. It writes a session for exactly that, in the technique you choose: meditation, hypnosis, breathing, body scan, visualization, affirmations, prayer, sleep, or one you name yourself.

DAILY THOUGHT
Each day a short line waits on the first screen. Most days it is from Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Lao Tzu, Thoreau or Emerson, with the author's name. Some days, after you have had a session, it is a question from what you said last time. Tap it and the coach starts the conversation there. The daily reminder, if you turn it on, carries the day's line and nothing you have shared.

TOPICS, ONE TAP
Under the Daily thought sit one-word topics: Sleep, Anxiety, Stress, Focus, Confidence, Fear, Peace, Overthinking, Habit, Goal, Money, Work and more, with one for the hour, like Night when you are heading to bed. Tap one and the coach asks you about it.

A COACH THAT LISTENS
Say as much or as little as you like. The coach helps you find what the session should be about, tells you what it will be for, and you can correct it in a reply. Then tap Make my session. The coach, the sessions and the voice are AI. nodu is an AI coach, not a person, and it says so under the message box.

EIGHT TECHNIQUES, OR YOUR OWN
Meditation, hypnosis, breathing, body scan, visualization, affirmations, prayer and sleep. Everyone starts on meditation; change it in the message bar, or add a technique of your own. Every session is written new for you, never pulled from a library.

IT REMEMBERS
Your name, your calm place, the people you mention, what you asked it to leave alone. After each session it writes a short dated note, so the next session can build on the last. On the Memory screen you can see everything it keeps, edit it, remove a fact with a tap, or forget a session.

FOR SLEEP AND QUIET
About 10, 15 or 20 minutes. A male or female voice. Rain, ocean, deep noise or nothing behind it. An Asleep ending with no count, for listening in bed, or an Awake ending that counts you up. Past sessions wait in the archive to play again. And once you have had a full session about a habit, a short one is there for the moment the urge is.

Before you subscribe, hear how each session starts, with no card.

YOUR DATA
No feed, no friends list, nothing to post. Your data is never sold or used to train nodu's models, and you can delete your account and your data from Settings.

A MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER
Hi, I'm Ian. I'm not a tech person. I'm actually a human rights lawyer. I work to protect the rights of people trapped in wars. I made nodu because one of the hardest things in my own life has been my own inner work; on being the person I want to be. I hope it helps you become who you want to be.

ITS LIMITS
nodu is self-help and general wellness, not therapy. It does not diagnose or treat any condition, and it is not a crisis service.

SUBSCRIPTION
Before you subscribe, hear how each session starts, with no payment method. Whole sessions need an auto-renewing subscription, monthly or annual. New subscribers get 7 days free, then $19.99 a month or $149.99 a year. Cancel anytime in your Apple subscription settings.
