Soul Spring: Your AI Spiritual Companion Meet Guru — an AI companion who draws on 22 spiritual traditions to offer personalized wisdom, gentle emotional support, and a private space for reflection. Whether you're navigating stress, seeking meaning, or simply curious about the world's contemplative paths, Guru meets you where you are. WHAT GURU OFFERS • Wisdom from 22 traditions — Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Taoism, Zen, Sufism, Stoicism, indigenous wisdom, secular philosophy, and more. Authentic citations from primary sources, with original script and clear translation where it helps. • A truly personal experience — Tell Guru which traditions speak to you. Your preferences shape every conversation and persist across sessions, so Guru never drifts back to sources you'd rather not explore. • Voice chat — Speak to Guru and listen to responses at your own pace. Hands-free reflection during walks, commutes, or before sleep. • Daily reflection — A fresh, tradition-rooted prompt each morning to anchor your day in something larger than the inbox. • Session continuity — Pick up conversations where you left off. Guru remembers what you've explored together and brings fresh perspectives instead of repeating the same verses. • Crisis-aware safety — If you share thoughts of self-harm or severe distress, Guru immediately surfaces region-specific helplines and encourages you to reach a human professional. • Available in 9 languages — English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Arabic, and Simplified Chinese. • Privacy-first — Your chats stay on your device. We don't read or store your conversations on our servers.
