The record

Product: Lound is a voice-first AI journal that transcribes spoken thoughts, organizes them, and surfaces recurring themes over time.
Reflection: Entries retain the user’s original words alongside a title, recap, and reflection.
Insights: Insights connect related entries and identify patterns across themes, moods, people, and decisions.
Chat and search: Chat can use saved journal entries, while Premium adds meaning-based search and full-journal context.
Integrations: The privacy policy names AssemblyAI for transcription, OpenAI for AI analysis, Google and Apple for sign-in, RevenueCat for subscription management, and Apple App Store for payments.
Security: Lound says data is encrypted in transit using TLS/SSL, passwords are securely hashed, and access to personal data is restricted to what is needed to operate the service.
Audio retention: Audio is sent for transcription and replayable audio is not kept on Lound servers by default; optional retained recordings are saved on the user’s device.
AI data use: Lound says it does not use journal content to train its own AI models, while provider retention is separate from model training and is not promised to be zero.
Data controls: Users can export entries and conversations as JSON or request account deletion through the app.
Offline limitation: Transcription, AI analysis, and chat require internet because they run in the cloud; uploads may queue when connectivity is poor.
Support: Users can contact support through a web form or by email, and the site says it will respond as soon as possible.
Intended use: Lound is for self-reflection and decision support and is not therapy, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
Age and operator: The privacy policy describes Lound as operated by Nemantic LLC and intended for adults aged 18 and over.
Platform: The App Store listing identifies Lound as an iPhone app requiring iOS 15.1 or later.
Price from: $8.33/mo
