Ever wonder why you keep ending up in the same relationship cycles? Attune uses AI and peer-reviewed psychology and relationship research to reveal the hidden patterns in your conversations โ so you can finally understand what's really going on. Unlike generic couples quizzes, Attune analyzes your actual communication dynamics using frameworks from Gottman, attachment theory, and behavioral science. Simply share a conversation or situation, and get a research-backed breakdown of the patterns at play. WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER: โข Your communication patterns โ demand-withdraw cycles, bids for connection, conflict styles โข Research-backed insights โ every analysis is grounded in published, peer-reviewed studies โข Actionable clarity โ not just "what's wrong" but what the science says actually works โข Pattern tracking over time โ see how your dynamics evolve BUILT FOR EVERYONE: Whether you're navigating a new situationship, strengthening a long-term partnership, working through co-parenting dynamics, or you're a therapist looking for a client-facing tool โ Attune meets you where you are. WHY ATTUNE IS DIFFERENT: Most relationship apps ask you to take quizzes or answer daily prompts. Attune goes deeper. It reads the actual texture of your communication and maps it against decades of relationship science. No fluff. No horoscopes. Just clarity.

You've reread the thread six times. You still can't tell what they meant. Subtext reads a message thread and shows you what's going on underneath it: the tone, the push and pull, who is owning what, and where things tend to go sideways. You bring a conversation and Subtext gives you a clear, calm read in seconds. It works for any relationship that matters: a partner, a date, a parent, a friend, a coworker. A reading, not a verdict. Subtext points at patterns. It does not diagnose anyone, and it can be wrong. You decide what the patterns mean and what to do next. Private by design. Your conversations are analyzed in the moment and never stored on our servers. No message content, no contact names, nothing kept. Your readings can stay on your device. What you get: A 0 to 100 read on the health of the conversation Short flags for what is working and what to watch for, on your side and theirs A two-line summary in plain language One prompt to help you decide your next move How to bring a conversation: Import screenshots and Subtext reads the conversation out of them Paste a chat from any app WhatsApp and Telegram exports are supported Your readings stay on your phone. We never store them on our servers, so no one can read them. It also means we cannot restore them if you lose your phone. Privacy first, with the tradeoff stated plainly. Your first 7 days are free. After that, keep going with a subscription or a one-time 7-day pass. No card required to start. Subtext is a pattern-spotting tool, not therapy or a substitute for professional support. If a pattern matters, a therapist or counselor is the right place to take it. If you are in crisis or worried about your safety, contact local emergency services or a crisis line.
