Laït is the AI coach you actually talk to. Open the app. Speak. Laït listens, asks the right next question, and remembers — across days, not just within a session. So the version of you you keep almost being doesn't have to start over every Monday. WHAT MAKES LAÏT DIFFERENT • A daily voice practice. Five-minute morning alignments. Midday resets. Evening reflections. Weekly plans. Quarterly resets. Vision Imprints for rest. A real cadence — not just a chat window. • Memory that compounds. Your coach builds a working understanding of your goals, principles, blockers and wins, and uses it without you having to re-explain yourself. • The Arc. See the shape of your year — active plans, milestones, and the thread that connects them. One screen, your whole horizon. • Vision Imprints. Personalized audio you listen to during rest, built to anchor the identity you're stepping into. • Informed by how change actually happens. Built on what works in habit formation, identity, and motivation — translated into a daily practice you'll actually keep. A DAY WITH LAÏT Morning — A 5-minute alignment names what matters today. Anytime — Open Voice Coaching when you're stuck, deciding, or spiraling. Evening — A short reflection closes the loop on the day. Weekly — A 12-minute session that review your past week and sets the week's commitments. Before sleep — A Vision Imprint anchors who you're becoming. HOW THE AI WORKS Laït uses AI to power voice conversations and to generate personalized session content. Audio you record during voice coaching is processed by third-party AI providers (including OpenAI) to enable real-time responses; transcripts and summaries are stored in your account so your coach can reference them. You can review what's stored and delete your data anytime in Settings → Account. PRIVACY FIRST Your reflections stay yours. Encrypted in transit and at rest. We never sell your data and your audio is never stored. Sign in with Apple, Google, or email. Delete your account and all data anytime from Settings. SUBSCRIPTION Laït offers trial period and three paid plans (Spark, Flame, Beacon) with monthly AI credits for generating Momentum Plans and Vision Imprints. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Subscription or in your Apple ID Subscriptions. Subscription auto-renews unless turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Interval Timer at none against LaÏt's shown. Interval Timer also leads on ratings volume (561 vs 3) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). LaÏt's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
