About Shado: AI Journal & Guide

Shado is an AI journal for honest self-reflection and guided shadow work. Write what's on your mind. Your guide responds with a thoughtful letter, remembers what matters, and helps you notice patterns across your entries. Each week, Shado turns what you wrote into a personalized reflection session. WHAT YOU GET - A blank page, and a prompt when you want one. Write freely, whenever. - A reflection after every entry, in your guide's voice and a tone you choose. - A guide that remembers — your entries build a private record over time. - Patterns, parts, and mirrors: see what repeats, and where it comes from. - A weekly session — a guided conversation built from everything you wrote that week. - Your story over time. Watch yourself change, in your own words. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your writing is yours. We don't sell your data, we don't show ads, and we never use your private entries to train AI models. Reflections are generated by trusted AI providers over encrypted connections. NOT THERAPY Shado is journaling and self-reflection — not therapy, not medical advice, and not a crisis service. If you're in crisis, please reach out: in the US, call or text 988. SUBSCRIPTION Full access requires a subscription after a guided setup. Annual, monthly, and weekly plans are available, with a free trial on the annual plan. Current prices are shown in the app before you purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Prices may vary by region.
