Your mind won't stop replaying it. ClearSpiral helps you step out of the loop in 90 seconds โ€” no meditation skills required. Overthinking isn't a character flaw. It's a pattern โ€” and patterns can be interrupted. ClearSpiral is a private AI companion built for people who lie awake replaying conversations, catastrophize before meetings, and can't "just clear their mind." Instead of telling you to stop thinking, it helps you think through the tangle until the thought dissolves. WHAT YOU CAN DO โ€ข Unspiral a thought in 60โ€“180 seconds with a guided AI session โ€ข Dump racing thoughts fast when you don't have time for a full session โ€ข See your personal Pattern Map โ€” your overthinking as a constellation โ€ข Track your Overthinking Score and watch it drop week by week โ€ข Switch to Night Mode for sleep-specific techniques: thought shelving, worry scheduling, guided wind-down โ€ข Use Breathing Tools to down-regulate before a meeting, bedtime, or hard conversation โ€ข Build a private Thought Journal you can search, filter, and look back on โ€ข Get a Weekly Report that surfaces your triggers and progress WHY CLEARSPIRAL IS DIFFERENT Most calm and mindfulness tools give you the same pre-recorded audio no matter what's on your mind. ClearSpiral responds to your actual thought โ€” the specific one keeping you up tonight. A persistent memory quietly remembers your recurring worries, triggers, and what's helped before, so every session picks up where the last one left off. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the app and tell your AI companion what's looping in your head 2. It asks a few gentle questions, reflects patterns, and guides you to a settle point 3. The thought is archived to your private journal โ€” you can revisit or let it go BUILT FOR OVERTHINKERS, NOT MEDITATORS No streak pressure. No guilt screens. No toxic positivity. No one telling you to "just breathe" when you've already tried that. ClearSpiral is a tool, not a therapist โ€” if you're in crisis, it will gently route you to trained support at 988. CLEARSPIRAL PLUS Upgrade anytime for unlimited sessions, unlimited thought dumps, the full Pattern Map, full journal history with search, ambient Night Mode soundscapes, the full Challenge library, weekly AI insight reports, and all five breathing protocols. Free users get plenty to get started โ€” Plus is there when you want more. โ€ข Weekly, Monthly, and Annual subscription options โ€ข Auto-renews until cancelled โ€ข Cancel anytime in iPhone Settings Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your iTunes Account. Manage or cancel subscriptions in Account Settings after purchase. IMPORTANT ClearSpiral is a wellness tool, not a medical device or therapy replacement. It's not intended for use during a mental health emergency. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 (US) or your local emergency line.

Postpartum Tracker is the recovery companion and postpartum journal built for mothers, not babies, with your postpartum wellness at the center. From day one through the fourth trimester and beyond, track your mood, healing, breastfeeding, sleep, hormones, and screen for postpartum depression and anxiety in one calm, organized space. The postpartum window is the most under-served stretch of a mother's life. Every other app pivots to baby tracking once the baby arrives. Postpartum Tracker keeps you, the mother, at the center.

No forced account. Optional iCloud sync is private to you. Nothing is sold, nothing is shared. BUILT FOR - New mothers in weeks 0 through 52 postpartum - First-time moms and experienced moms - Mothers recovering from a C-section, vaginal birth, or birth trauma - Mothers at higher PPD/PPA risk who want a low-friction self-screen - Partners and doulas co-supporting a new mom WHY POSTPARTUM TRACKER You are not failing. You are healing. This is harder than anyone told you. Postpartum Tracker is built around that truth. The mood swings, the bleeding that won't stop, the latch that won't work, the sleep that isn't there, the version of you that you can't find. Every screen reflects what new moms actually live through, in language that does not pretend. IMPORTANT This app is for informational tracking only. It is not medical advice and does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale included is a validated self-screening instrument, not a diagnosis. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional, including your OB, midwife, lactation consultant, or mental-health provider, before starting, changing or stopping any treatment, medication or care plan.
