BetweenUs
Read full descriptionHide full description
BetweenUs is a calm, AI-assisted space for two people to work through a hard conversation β at your own pace, without anyone shouting. Pick a topic. Each of you privately writes what happened, how you feel, and what you want. BetweenUs's AI then turns those two perspectives into one neutral summary, finds where you actually agree, suggests fair next steps, and helps you draft a written agreement you can both sign. Built for couples, co-parents, roommates, family members, and anyone who has ever said "we need to talk about this, but every time we try, it goes sideways." WHAT YOU GET β’ Async, private threads β write your side when you're calm β’ AI summaries that turn long, emotional text into something the other person can actually hear β’ A neutral "issue map" showing where you agree, where you differ, and where the friction is β’ AI-suggested solutions with trade-offs, so you both pick the next step β’ A written agreement you can save, share, or export β’ Voice notes (auto-transcribed for Plus members) β’ Document and photo attachments β leases, custody orders, letters, screenshots β that the AI can read in context β’ Built-in crisis check: if anything you write suggests danger or harm, we surface trusted resources right inside the thread β’ Light + dark mode, end-to-end private β only you and your invited partner can read your thread β’ Free tier with 1 active thread, 2 attachments, and the full AI flow FREE β INCLUDED FOR EVERYONE β’ 1 active thread at a time β’ Text entries (no voice transcription) β’ Up to 2 attachments per thread β’ AI summaries, issue map, suggested solutions, draft agreement β’ Crisis support resources You can use BetweenUs forever on the free tier β there is no time-limited trial.
