About

MyItihas

Features
Read full description

MyItihas is a real-time social and messaging platform built around Chronicle, your private daily journal with an AI companion that helps you reflect, and Vibe AI, an agentic AI assistant that actually gets things done for you. Free, ad-light, and open to everyone. Come for a place to share your real moments and talk freely with your people. Stay for Chronicle, a page that's yours alone, and an AI that drafts, finds, and helps, always with your tap before anything goes out. Features: • Chronicle, your private journal Check in daily with an AI that listens, build a streak, and wake up to a beautifully written recap of your week, complete with a generated cover, every Sunday. Never shared, never public. • Vibe AI, your agentic companion Talk it out in Friend or Mentor mode, in text or natural voice. Let it draft a post or poll, find the right person to message, search your feed, reach a few friends at once, or write a letter that arrives on a day you choose. It always shows you the draft before anything goes out. • A feed that's actually yours Ranked by what you engage with, not who paid for placement. Hide a post, mark it not interested, or report it, and your feed adjusts immediately, not eventually. • Real messaging and Communities 1-on-1 and group chats with voice notes and view-once private media, plus Communities spanning multiple groups with roles and admin-approved membership. • Status Ring, on your timer Share a thought, quote, or quick photo that vanishes on a schedule you set: 1 hour, 6, 12, 24, and beyond. Found one worth keeping? Save it as a Highlight, forever. • AI image generation Generate an image from a prompt, or edit one you already have, right from Vibe AI chat or your post composer. • Real reactions Like, comment, repost, or quote-repost any post, and bookmark anything worth finding again. • Search & Discover Find posts, hashtags, and people with a "For You" feed that gets more relevant the more you use it. • AI story generator Generate narrative stories inspired by Indian epics and traditions, for anyone who wants to create. • Multilingual experience Use MyItihas in English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Gujarati, Bengali, Marathi, Punjabi, Odia, Assamese, Sanskrit, or Urdu. Who is it for? • Anyone who wants a private space to reflect, every day • People done with ad-driven feeds and algorithms they can't question • Friends and communities who want to stay close without the noise • Creators who want an AI that actually helps, not just chats • Everyone, everywhere, who wants their moments to feel like their own Notes: • Certain features require internet access • AI-generated content (chat replies, images, and stories) may be inaccurate; review it before relying on it • Vibe AI never posts, sends, or acts on your behalf without your explicit confirmation MyItihas.
