heijō mini-journal
Micro-moments → macro-clarity
Voice-activated journaling for clarity
We built this for people who think fast, feel deeply, and need space — without screens fighting back.
Because even a few words, captured well, can change the shape of a day.
Private by design. Local-only storage.
Voice-to-text or type-to-text.
No cloud. No tracking. Just presence.
“I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see, and what it means.” — Joan Didion
Because the mind moves fast. Because intrusions sneak in. Because we forget the shape of a day before it's done.
That's why the Heijō Mini‑Journal exists: to pause the scroll, capture the sentence, lock the memory, and give you a clearing in the chaos. In just a few words your day can shift.
Capture thoughts at the speed of your mind.
Heijō is built around one idea: the moment you feel something, you should be able to record it in seconds.
- Speak a thought, watch it land. Real-time voice transcription shows your words as you speak.
- Talk or type. Switch between voice and a distraction-free text editor when you'd rather write.
- Gentle structure, not homework. A rotating prompt system that's there when you want it and invisible when you don't.
Your mind. Your device.
Most journaling apps ship your inner life to the cloud by default. Heijō does the opposite.
- Local-first by design. Entries stay on your device by default.
- Zero tracking. No analytics pixels or engagement dashboards.
- Works offline. Journal anywhere, anytime.
- One-tap export and one-tap delete when you want full control.
Organized enough to find it. Calm enough to use it.
Heijō quietly builds structure around your thoughts without turning your journal into a dashboard.
- Custom tags with suggestions that appear as you write.
- Full-text search across every entry.
- Simple filters by date, tag, or voice vs text.
- Soft analytics coming later in beta. No streaks, no pressure.
Sync when you need it.
Heijō is local-first by default.
You can journal privately on a single device without an account, without analytics, and without noise. When you're ready to move between devices, Premium will simply add optional encrypted sync.
Included:
- All journaling features
- Voice + text
- Entries stored on your device
- Offline mode
- No account required
Premium (coming later in beta):
- Optional encrypted backup
- Multi-device sync
- Local-first hybrid model (entries stay on the device and are mirrored safely)
- Free during early beta
Not another content farm.
Most wellness products measure success in hours watched or streaks maintained.
Heijō measures something simpler: did you breathe, did you notice, did you write.
- No infinite content library
- No gamified streaks
- No burnout loops
- Just quiet tools that respect your time and your nervous system
