For the hours an app usually skips

A companion
for the worst moments.

The 3am loop. The voice that attacks. The grief you carry quietly. The conversation you can’t rehearse. The message you almost sent. Tafakkari is the place to put it down.

Not a coach. Not a fix. A witness.

Six modules · one practice

Made for the specific shape of the moment.

Each module is a small ritual — 1 to 7 minutes — that meets you where you are. No generic prompts. No motivational essays. Your words, lightly witnessed.

🔄

Loops

When a thought keeps coming back.

A six-step practice for rumination. Name it, externalise it, ground, and walk away with the loop quieter than you found it.

🗣

Inner Critic

When the voice attacks.

Externalise the critic, name it, talk back, then close the exchange. Both voices in the room — neither one allowed to fix the other.

🤍

Grief

When you’re carrying someone.

A quiet space for whoever you carry. No stages, no timelines, no “at least.” A keepsake PDF you can hold onto when you need to.

💬

Scripts

When you have to say something hard.

A scaffold for the conversation — not a script to read. Opening line, key points, what to say if they push back, and how to end if it goes badly. Built from your words.

🪶

Release

When something needs to be set down.

Name what it gave you, what it cost, what you keep. Return as many times as you need. The practice is the returning.

🌙

3am Sleep Track

When sleep won’t come.

An eight-minute body scan + 4-7-8 breathing track, mixed with brown noise. Pre-loaded, plays offline. Made for the hours you couldn’t reach a person.

☁️

Grounding

When you just need a minute.

A guided 5-4-3-2-1 grounding exercise. No writing. No prompts. Just settling.

✍️

Quiet Journal

When you just want to write.

Optional. No prompts, no nudges, no streaks. A patterns view shows what you’ve been circling — without telling you what to do about it.

The thing about a worst-moment companion

is that what it doesn’t do matters as much as what it does.

Here’s what we left out, on purpose.

No streaks. No gamification.

Your worst moments don’t belong on a leaderboard. We don’t reward you for opening the app. We don’t guilt you when you don’t.

No advice. No reframes.

The AI is a witness, not a therapist, not a coach, not a self-help author. It names what it heard. It does not tell you what to do.

No diagnoses. No labels.

We don’t call you anxious, depressed, avoidant, or catastrophising. Those words belong to your clinician, not an app.

No rewriting your messages.

The coach won’t paraphrase you to sound nicer. It witnesses what’s in your message and notes what’s missing. The send button stays yours.

No predictions about other people.

We don’t say what your mother will think, how your partner will react, whether your boss will care. We refuse to make a story up about people we don’t know.

No therapy-influencer language.

No “hold space.” No “honour your needs.” No “sit with it.” A banned-phrase list governs every AI reply, audited weekly.

No ads. No tracking. No selling data.

Ever. The business model is one Pro subscription, paid directly. Free tier has everything you need for the worst night.

No replacing your therapist.

Tafakkari is between sessions, before the call, after the hard hour. If you’re in crisis, we’ll always show you crisis lines first.

Therapist Share · Pro

A clean read of your week, in your own words.

Generate a private, revocable link you can send to your therapist before a session. It shows what you wrote in Loops, Critics, Grief, Scripts, and Release — never AI replies, never their interpretation. Just your words, organised, with the patterns visible.

Expires when you choose. Revoke at any time. Therapist sees a read-only HTML page — no app install required on their side.

Privacy by design

Your worst moments are yours alone.

Tafakkari is built so your most vulnerable writing stays with you. Zero-Knowledge mode binds your encryption key to your device, so not even we can read what you write.

AES-256-GCM at rest · TLS 1.3 in transit · No third-party trackers · No ad networks · Account deletion wipes everything, including loops, grief notes, critics, scripts, releases, and therapist shares.
