Dreams fade fast. DreamStream helps you capture them before they disappear, then turns your dream journal into AI visuals, comics, Dream Videos, pattern reports, audio reflections, and private insights you will actually want to revisit. Record a dream by voice, quick audio capture, or text. Add the details that matter: emotions, stress level, dream type, day context, tags, people, places, and visual style.
