Your Kairos vs elsehear

Kairos is the personal analytics engine for everything you'd otherwise spread across seven apps and a spreadsheet. One timeline, your data, your patterns—surfaced, never prescribed. MORNING RATING Each morning the home page asks you to rate yesterday across three axes — energy, mood, focus — on a 1–5 scale. Your ratings become first-class features in the analyzer: modes get characterized in your own vocabulary, and coupling can answer "what tracks with mood?" against every other series you're collecting. HEALTH Connect Apple Health on your iPhone. Sleep, HRV, recovery, workouts, and steps flow into one timeline. Compatible with WHOOP, Oura, Garmin, Fitbit, and Apple Watch — all write into HealthKit; Kairos reads from there. Strava, Peloton, Zwift, and Nike Run Club workouts route the same way — enable each app's Apple Health export. PHONE Connect your encrypted iPhone backup from a Mac. Messages, calls, and photos become heatmaps, time-of-day histograms, and top-contact rankings. Friends can be tagged for faster recall and relationship-depth tracking. SPEND Plaid integration imports transactions and balances across banks, brokerages, and credit cards. Auto-categorized via 15 curated tags. Recurring subscriptions auto-detected from your transactions — track them before they pile up. SCHEDULE Sync up to five Google, Microsoft, or Apple iCloud calendars side-by-side. Meeting load, free-time breakdown, and category mix across 30d / 90d / 1y windows. Gmail integration surfaces flights, hotels, events, and receipts alongside gcal. LISTENING Connect Spotify, Apple Music, or Last.fm — your top songs, artists, and listening volume become a feature in the analyzer. Friends who are also connected show up live, with weekly on-repeat tracks and taste-compatibility scores on your top-50 artists over 3 months. Discover surfaces friends-of-friends with similar taste (opt-in). Share your top 5 as a story-ready image. ANALYTICS A per-user Hidden Markov Model identifies stable patterns in your data — "modes" you cycle through, change-points when something shifts, couplings between metrics. Your morning rating becomes a feature in the model, so modes get characterized in your own words instead of system-inferred meaning. Descriptive, never prescriptive. PROSE An optional narrative layer that reads what the analyzer surfaces and describes it in plain language. A 7-day recap, a rotating pair of your own past messages with the context of the day around them, and a branching Discover view that lets you explore any pattern the analyzer flagged. Uses Claude; strictly opt-in; nothing goes to an LLM unless you turn it on. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Per-user encryption for stored OAuth tokens. Export your full database any time. No ads. No user-tracking analytics. No data sold or shared, ever. Error monitoring via Sentry with PII scrubbed before submission; CAPTCHA on signup via Cloudflare Turnstile. BUILT FOR You, if you've tried Notion, Airtable, bullet-journaling, and three different habit trackers and wanted a single home that actually understands time as the primary axis — and treats your own labels as the ground truth, not someone else's. Email verification and optional TOTP 2FA.
