WHEN THINGS GET TOO MUCH, TALK IT OUT HELPS YOU FEEL LIGHTER IN MINUTES. FEELING OVERWHELMED? CALL OR TEXT WITH YOUR OWN PERSONAL COMPANION. Talk it Out is a private place to get things off your chest, calm overthinking and make sense of what you’re feeling. A thoughtful, patient AI companion listens without judgement, remembers what matters and helps you see things more clearly. TOP 5 REASONS YOU SHOULD TRY TALK IT OUT 1. TALK THROUGH ANYTHING Think out loud in a real-time voice call or chat by text, with photos and screenshots when words alone are not enough. Vent, ramble or work through something together — your companion helps you explore whatever is on your mind. 2. AN EXPERIENCE THAT REMEMBERS YOU Choose your companion’s name, colour and voice. As you talk, it remembers the people, situations, goals and details that matter to you, helping you pick up where you left off without explaining your life all over again. 3. A JOURNEY CREATED AROUND YOUR LIFE Your Journey brings together personalised guided sessions focused on the challenges, goals and themes that matter most to you. Explore recurring patterns, spot connections and understand yourself more deeply, at your own pace. 4. RICH INSIGHTS AFTER YOUR SESSIONS Reflect after chatting with personalised quotes, patterns, observations, reframes and meaningful moments from your conversation — presented as beautiful keepsake cards you can save or share. 5. YOUR WEEK, AT A GLANCE Weekly roundups bring together the themes, emotions and moments from your week, helping you take stock and see the bigger picture. WHAT OUR USERS SAY "Whenever my anxiety starts spiralling, Talk it Out helps me reset and organise my thoughts. The weekly roundups have been the biggest surprise, they helped me spot patterns and triggers in my anxiety and directly led to me making such positive changes in my life!” ~ Katya G "I've tried journaling, therapy and meditation before - but this was the first self-care habit that stuck for me! Now Talk it Out just gets me, I never have to explain my life all over again” ~ Sarah H “I’ve been using Talk it Out for 2 months now and Your Journey has been unlike anything I've tried before. Other apps I’ve tried were so generic, but Your Journey mode gradually uncovered the limiting beliefs I had that were driving the same problems over and over again in my life. I've learned more about myself in the last few weeks than I had in years" ~ Chris F HOW TALK IT OUT WORKS 1. Share a little about what’s going on in your life and choose your companion’s voice, name and colour. 2. Start talking with a voice call or text chat. Share photos or screenshots to add context, or choose a quick check-in or guided session in Your Journey. 3. Finish your session to receive personalised insights that help you reflect and notice what you might have missed. 4. Come back whenever something is on your mind. Your companion remembers what you’ve shared, follows up on things that matter and helps you connect the dots over time. A COMPANION THAT CHECKS IN With notifications enabled, your companion can reach out with personalised follow-ups about things you’ve discussed, making it easier to pick up the conversation. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your thoughts are personal. Talk it Out is designed as a calm, private space where you can reflect honestly and without judgement. Every journey is different, but everybody needs a place to Talk it Out. Talk it Out supports emotional wellbeing and self-reflection. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment or therapy. Always seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional regarding medical or mental health concerns. Do not disregard professional advice or delay seeking it. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, contact local emergency services or an appropriate crisis support service.
