Yorishiro is a journaling app for self-understanding, available on Android, iOS, macOS and the web. Its AI organizes entries into facts, feelings, thoughts and body sensations, then offers feedback informed by cognitive behavioral therapy. Users can dictate entries for conversion to text, or ask AI to refine the writing in a preferred style without changing its meaning. Visualizations show patterns in emotions, thinking habits, scores and frequently used tags. The app can analyze results from 11 supported strengths and personality assessments, and entries sync with its web app when the same account is used. The free Write plan includes unlimited entries, data export, 10 AI analyses, three AI conversations and 10 minutes of voice input per month. Reflect costs 2.99 USD per month; Deepen costs 5.99 USD per month. AI features use Anthropic’s Claude API. Data is stored in Supabase’s Tokyo region, communications use HTTPS, and account and journal data can be deleted in Settings. Yorishiro is not medical care and does not provide diagnosis, treatment or psychiatric advice.
Who it is for
Yorishiro suits people who want to journal by typing or voice and review patterns in their emotions and thinking. It is intended for users aged 13 or older; users under 18 need parental or guardian consent.
