- It works from a method, not from vibes
- The guide is instructed with the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy: naming cycles, looking under the words, one question at a time. Nothing was trained on your data; the method lives in how it is instructed.
- It is one presence, not a session
- The same guide every day for both of you. It keeps a rolling private note about your relationship so it can pick up where you left off, and that note is never shown to anyone.
- It will not break a seal
- Ask it what your partner wrote before they have answered and it declines. Warmly, but it declines. That rule is enforced in the software, not left to the model’s discretion.
- It does not take sides
- It will not agree that your partner is the problem, and it will not problem-solve about someone who is not there.
- When it cannot help
- On any signal of violence, abuse or self-harm it stops the normal flow, speaks only to that person, and points them to real help.
Is my relationship being used to train an AI?
No. What you write is sent to the model to generate your guide’s reply. It is not used to train anything, and it is never shown to another couple.
