Everlog is a private, local-first life logging app that turns your day into clear, searchable patterns. Speak or type naturally — built-in AI handles the rest. Built around three simple pillars: log effortlessly, track what matters, and discover patterns you'd never notice on your own. HOW IT WORKS 1. Log — Tap once. Speak or type. "Had coffee with Priya, then 5km run, then read a few chapters of Range." Everlog's AI extracts categories, people, durations, food, exercise, and reading — automatically. 2. Track — Daily kcal, weekly active minutes, and reading streaks build themselves from what you log. No double entry. No forms. 3. Discover — Your timeline, trends, and people view surface what's actually shaping your weeks. Premium unlocks deeper patterns and monthly AI reports.
