Candor is a AI Note Eighteen AI lenses surface the patterns you'd never see otherwise the themes you keep returning to, the loops you don't notice, the questions you're quietly carrying. Every entry is encrypted with your master password before it leaves the writing surface. No analytics. No cloud-scraping. No support backdoor. Honest writing, in your hands. THE AI HUB Reflect runs your scoped notes through one of these lenses: • Themes — what you keep returning to, ranked by frequency • Recent mind — the 2–3 threads pulling at you this week • Loop — unconscious cycles running through your writing • Salience — what you say you care about vs. what your attention keeps landing on • Contradictions — beliefs you hold that don't fit together • Open questions — the ones you keep asking yourself • What's missing — topics you'd expect to write about but don't • The Outside View — what a stranger reading your journal would assume • Steel Man — the most generous reading of a flaw you keep naming • The Crucible — calibrated challenges at the edge of your capacity • Trajectory — where the next 6–12 months go if nothing changes • Spark for writing — open scenes to write into • Plus: Story, Timeline, Period summary, Growth, Preferences, Key choices Chat with your notes for open-ended dialogue. Map clusters your entries by theme. TWO AIs TO CHOOSE FROM • Apple Intelligence — on-device, fast, included with Backup & Export • Candor AI — cloud, frontier reasoning, included with Bundle Switch any time in Settings. The same notes feed either one. PRIVACY YOU CAN AUDIT Your master password derives a 256-bit key locally with Argon2id. Every entry is sealed with XChaCha20-Poly1305 before it leaves the writing surface. Search runs in memory and forgets. Nothing leaves your phone unless you turn on iCloud sync — and even then, Apple sees ciphertext only. There is no support backdoor. Lose your password and your recovery key, and the data is gone. That's the point. FREE CANDOR INCLUDES • Writing with auto-save • Voice dictation (on-device — Apple Speech and Omnilingual for 100+ languages) • End-to-end encryption • Full-text and semantic search • Categories, widgets, daily reminders • Local-only — no account required SUBSCRIPTIONS • Backup & Export — $2.99/month or $24.99/year Apple Intelligence on-device + Gemini cloud (bring your own API key) + iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac + .ilbk / ZIP / Obsidian export and import. • Bundle — $5.99/month or $49.99/year Everything in Backup, plus Candor AI — our most capable model, server-managed, no API key needed. 7-day free trial on the Bundle.
