Everything you'd want to ask before writing anything down.

A daily gratitude journal app, plus a small set of structured reflection tools. You write a line or two about what was good today. Over time it shows you patterns you can't see from the inside — who keeps appearing, what lifts your mood, what's quietly gone missing.

It takes about three minutes a day. It's designed to survive the days you don't feel like it.

Honestly? It might not be. But most gratitude apps fail for the same two reasons, and both are design choices rather than facts of life.

The first is streaks. Miss a day, break the chain, feel like a failure, delete the app. Kansha has no streak counter anywhere. There is nothing to protect and nothing to lose.

The second is that listing three things gets boring by week two. So there's more here than a list — a jar of kept moments you can open on a bad day, structured exercises from CBT and positive psychology, and an analysis that reads your entries back to you.

As little as thirty seconds. Write one line, press enter, close the app.

Some days you'll write more. The weekly and one-off exercises take five to fifteen minutes when you feel like doing one — they're entirely optional.

Nothing happens. Nothing is lost, nothing resets, no counter goes back to zero.

Come back whenever. The jar will still be full of everything you kept.

The journal is free forever — writing, mood, the jar, search, your whole history. That isn't a trial.

There's a Pro tier at £2.99/month for more frequent AI analysis. Everything in Pro is free during the beta, so right now there's no difference.

No. Signing up asks for an email address and nothing else. There's no card, no trial timer, and no upgrade prompt waiting for you inside.

There isn't a clever one, but here's the honest version. Kansha is built and run by one person in Bristol as a side project. It's early. You'll probably find rough edges, and the roadmap moves when someone tells me something's broken.

In exchange it's free, there are no ads, your data isn't sold, and you can take everything with you whenever you want.

No. Entries are protected by row-level security at the database, which means queries can only ever return rows belonging to the signed-in account. There's no admin screen for browsing user entries, and I've never read anyone's.

If you'd like the longer technical version, it's on the Trust page.

No, to all three. There are no ad networks and no data brokers, and nothing you write is ever read by an analytics tool.

We do use one privacy-first analytics tool, Vemetric, to count page visits — it is cookieless, EU-hosted, stores no IP addresses and cannot identify you. It sees that a page was viewed; it never sees a word of your journal.

Yes. Every entry has a small lock icon. Locked entries stay in your journal and your search, but are never sent to the AI.

Export everything to a file whenever you like — entries, moods, jar, exercises, the lot.

Deleting your account removes your data from every table straight away. No thirty-day grace period, no "we'll keep a copy just in case".

It reads your recent entries and looks for things that are hard to notice from inside your own life. Who appears most often and how they show up. Which times of week your mood tends to be highest. What you used to write about that's quietly disappeared. One line it most wants you to see.

It's the part of Kansha people find most surprising, and it's the reason most keep using it.

To Anthropic's API to generate that one response, and nowhere else. Before it runs you'll see a screen listing exactly what's about to be sent.

Locked entries are excluded. Nothing is used to train any model.

Dismiss it and it won't come back, or flag it so the analysis learns to avoid that kind of reading. You're not stuck with a machine's opinion of your inner life.

Some observations will miss. It's reading text, not your mind.

Yes. Add your own key in Settings and analysis runs on your account at your cost, as often as you want.

No — Kansha runs in the browser. On a phone you can add it to your home screen and it behaves like a normal app, including offline.

Yes, and it syncs between them. There's also a Chrome extension that puts a small entry box on your new-tab page.

Only if you want one. By default you get a magic link by email — click it and you're in.

Email matt@getkansha.co.uk. It goes to one person and gets read the same day. During the beta this is genuinely useful rather than a polite fiction.
