About

Read full description

Break the thought loop. In ninety seconds. UnLoop is a warm, private place for the worries that replay at 3 AM — the conversation you can't stop having with yourself, the spiral you can't think your way out of. Speak the loop out loud, or type it. UnLoop helps you name what your mind is doing, breathe through it, and put it down. No journaling streaks. No 20-minute meditations. No chatbot pretending to be your therapist. Just short, evidence-backed resets that actually fit the moment you're in. WHAT YOU CAN DO IN 90 SECONDS • Voice or text — talk through a loop hands-free, or tap it out. Your words are transcribed privately. • Breathe Breaks — three one-minute resets a day. Sixty seconds, paced breathing, done. • Spot the distortion — UnLoop gently names the pattern your brain is running (catastrophizing, mind-reading, all-or-nothing) and offers a kinder reframe rooted in CBT. • Worry Window — postpone a worry to a time you choose. Most of them don't survive the wait. • Thought Vault — set a worry down on the page so your head can stop carrying it. • Sleep Mode — a quieter, dimmer flow for racing thoughts at night. • Patterns — over time, see the loops that recur, what helps, and what doesn't. • Therapy Report — export a clean, shareable summary for your therapist (Pro). BUILT ON RESEARCH, NOT VIBES Every feature is grounded in peer-reviewed work on rumination, cognitive behavioral therapy, paced breathing, expressive writing, and worry postponement. We cite the studies right in the app — read them yourself in "Our Science." PRIVACY YOU CAN ACTUALLY TRUST Your thoughts are yours. Audio is transcribed securely and never sold. You can turn memory off, see everything UnLoop remembers, and delete it all in one tap. No social feed, no streaks designed to guilt you, no ads. WHO IT'S FOR If you ruminate. If you wake up at 3 AM rehearsing tomorrow. If your brain replays the same conversation for the fifth time today. If meditation apps feel like homework. If a journal feels like one more thing to fail at. UnLoop is for the in-between moments — when you don't need a therapist, you need 90 seconds and a way out of your own head. PRO Unlimited voice sessions, full pattern history, Therapy Report export, and Sleep Mode. Free to try, cancel anytime. Wellness support, not medical care. UnLoop is not a substitute for therapy or crisis services. If you're in crisis, please contact a local helpline.
