## What is Strata?

Strata is a journal for thoughts that aren't finished yet.

Most journals expect a complete entry. Strata doesn't. Write a
line when something strikes you, then come back later and add
another layer to the same moment — a day later, a month later,
whenever the thought develops. Over time an entry becomes a
record of how your thinking changed, not just what you thought
once.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything stays on your device. There is no account, no server,
and no sync. Strata contains no analytics, no tracking, and no
advertising. Your writing is not readable by anyone but you,
because it never leaves your phone.

WRITE IN LAYERS
Start with a moment. Add layers as the thought grows. Each layer
is timestamped, so you can see the shape of your own thinking
over weeks and months.

FIND YOUR WAY BACK
Browse your history, filter by tag, or let Discover surface
older entries you'd forgotten writing.

KEEP WHAT MATTERS
Export any entry as a PDF or a shareable card. Create an
encrypted backup with a passphrase only you know.

LOCKED IF YOU WANT IT
Turn on App Lock to require Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode
before Strata opens.

Strata works entirely offline. It always will.
