Cravings don't wait. Claro's right there with you. Claro is a quit-drinking companion built for the moments that matter. Whether you're doing Dry January, Sober October, a 30-day reset, or you're done with alcohol for good — Claro helps you ride out cravings, track your sober days, and finally see the patterns behind your drinking. This isn't about willpower. It's about having the right tools when the urge hits. A 90-SECOND CRAVING EXERCISE When a craving hits, Claro walks you through a guided breathing exercise to help you pause. Log the intensity, name the trigger, breathe through it, and come out the other side. No lecture. No guilt. Just a tool you can pull up in the moment. A SOBER TRACKER THAT MEANS SOMETHING Watch your streak grow day by day. See how much money you've saved, how many cravings you've worked through, and how many drinks you've skipped. Your sober counter isn't just a number — it's proof of every hard moment you got through. BUILT AROUND YOUR PATTERNS During onboarding, you share your triggers, your tough times, and your drinking patterns. Claro uses that to deliver check-ins that adapt to where you are. The more you use it, the more it fits you. SPOT PATTERNS, BREAK THE CYCLE Claro tracks your craving triggers, time-of-day patterns, and intensity trends over time. Weekly summaries show you what's shifting and what to watch for, so you stay one step ahead of the urge. DAILY CHECK-INS Start each day by checking in with how you're feeling — strong, okay, struggling, or needing help right now. Claro meets you there, every time. ACCOUNTABILITY WITHOUT JUDGMENT Claro celebrates your wins and shows up for the hard moments. No shame, no scoreboard. If you slip, Claro helps you debrief and start fresh. WHO CLARO'S FOR - People doing Dry January, Sober October, or a personal reset - Folks quitting alcohol for good and tracking sober days long-term - Anyone who wants to understand their relationship with alcohol - Anyone looking for in-the-moment craving support IMPORTANT Claro is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Stillwise is a private, local-first companion for understanding your drinking habits with more calm and less judgment. RECORD AND UNDERSTAND — FREE • Check in honestly with “didn’t drink,” “drank a little,” or “drank a lot.” • Review history, goals, streaks, mood patterns, triggers, and a 30-day calendar. • Open the complete local 28-day review after seven distinct recorded days. It reports associations, sample size, and uncertainty—not cause and effect. • Use the one-minute urge pause, manual prevention plans, custom tags, and professional-help resources. • Export selected data, create an encrypted complete backup, restore a backup, or delete your data. • Check in from the Widget and Apple Watch. ANTICIPATE AND ACT — STILLWISE PLUS Stillwise Plus is a single, one-time purchase. It adds proactive local Today guidance, confirmed risk-window ranking, and device-local reminders. These features stay useful without an API key, remote AI, or a network connection. Remote AI is an optional bring-your-own-key enhancement. It is off by default, never controls safety-critical decisions, and shows a data preview before every request. Requests go directly to the compatible provider and endpoint you configure. PRIVATE BY CHOICE Stillwise has no Stillwise account, hidden analytics, or advertising SDK. Records stay on your device by default. iCloud and remote AI are optional and user controlled. Local reminders are off by default and avoid sensitive lock-screen wording. Stillwise supports habit awareness. It does not diagnose an alcohol-use disorder, replace professional medical care, provide emergency treatment, or promise that AI will reduce drinking.
