whats your target audience, pricing and how are you going to convince them this is safe and private enough?

@maxcompe Great questions! We made Pearl for people who are looking for more natural, beautiful, and intuitive journaling experiences. We saw that AI wasn't being leveraged to it's fullest potential in journaling, and that a half of digital journaling experiences are done on the desktop, but most journaling innovations are mobile-first. Effective and enjoyable user experiences are always on our mind :) We definitely value privacy and creating a secure, private journaling experience. All our data is stored in Firebased and outlined in our privacy policy.

Congrats on the launch, @cherrilynn_zhang & @emily49! How does the emotions graph work behind the scenes? Is it AI analyzing journal entries, or do users tag emotions themselves?

@emily49 @ashitvora We use Hume's API to analyze the emotions from the journal entry!

This UX looks great! I like how the reflection works, it's exactly the type of the product that centers around its users. The visualization emotion part looks cool but not sure if that creates too much mental load. Anyhow, this is a product I'd use. Congrats :)

LOVE the UI and the name, some guidance would be helpful when writing down the feeling for the day, maybe multiple choices, sometime feeling can be complicated.

Congrats on your launch.🎉 I've used many journal apps, but none of them have supported me in understanding and writing as seamlessly as Pearl. I also like the interface, and it's very quick to title and tag, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops when all my journals are collected here.

Congrats on the launch! I really love the idea of the weekly review data, it’s such a great way to see the bigger picture. I’ve tried journaling with the iPhone app before but I always struggled to stay consistent so the way you were able to kinda 'gamify' the experience and track your progress is such a good motivator to keep going! I'm definitely going to follow the project as I'm sure you'll be adding great features along the way. I’m curious about the data storage though, like where is it stored, and do you have access to everything users share on the app? Transparency around that would be super reassuring. Great work and best of luck with Pearl!

Honestly, I'm impressed! I tried your product, and it is smooth and easy to use, and the UI is very user-friendly. Is that your first launch? You did an amazing job! Thank you for sharing, and you have definitely gained one new user! Plus the branding "PEARL" sounds so comforting and relaxing :)
