Inscape
Read full descriptionHide full description
Inscape is a private, structured place to bring one part of life into focus and consider it from more than one Perspective. A MIRROR, NOT A PROFILE Begin with an Attunement: statements about how you currently see yourself. Your answers form a Mirror made of five continuous ranges, which Inscape calls Waves. They reflect how you answered in this Attunement; neither end is better, and the result is not a personality type, score, diagnosis, or permanent identity. Your Starting Mirror and later Full Mirrors remain available in your private Journal. CHOOSE WHAT MATTERS NOW Move from a broad Life Domain to a precise Focus without writing out the private story behind it. Then choose the Perspective from which you want your Reflection to begin. Your chosen angle leads, another view adds depth, and a counterbalance keeps the Reflection open. A REFLECTION, NOT A VERDICT Inscape brings your current Mirror, chosen Focus, and selected Perspective together in a considered Reflection. It does not diagnose, predict, prescribe, claim to know what another person is thinking, or decide what you should do. You decide what fits, what to keep, and what to let pass. MEMORY ON YOUR TERMS Mirrors are preserved as part of your history. Reflections enter your Journal only when you choose to keep them. A kept Reflection remains connected to the exact Mirror that shaped it, so a later Attunement does not rewrite the past. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your name, Attunement answers, the exact positions within your Mirror, your saved Mirrors, and your Journal remain on your device. Inscape requires no account and includes no advertising or behavioral tracking. Inscape sends the ideas it selected for a Reflection—including your selected Focus and Perspective and locally derived themes—only if you allow Connected Synthesis, and only when you’re online and have Connected Synthesis Reflections remaining. They go through Moon Dust Foundry’s service, hosted by Netlify, to Anthropic, whose AI writes them into one fresh, connected Reflection. The request does not include your name, raw Attunement answers, Wave values, Mirror history, Journal, personal writing, StoreKit information, or tracking identifiers. You can turn Connected Synthesis off at any time and continue receiving complete Reflections composed entirely on this device. Start free with Quick Attunement, a Starting Mirror, and three complete Reflections. Inscape Pro adds Full Attunement, numbered Full Mirrors, Mirror renewal and comparison, unlimited complete Reflections composed on your device, and up to three Reflections with Connected Synthesis each day. No streaks. No scores. No pressure to return. Bring one part of life into focus. Consider it from more than one Perspective. Carry forward what helps.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Inscape at every 5 days against Parenting Tools's every 3 weeks. Parenting Tools's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
