Today
Your day, in the time it takes to make coffee.
Tap once, dump what you have in mind. JourVox captures it as a journal entry, transcribes it, and files it under today.
Coming soon to iPhone
Your Voice, Your Journal.
JourVox turns a minute of talking into a journal entry, then helps you see the pattern in what you've been carrying. No blank page. No typing. Just your voice.

Reflect
The patterns you would never spot entry by entry.
Reflect turns every entry you've recorded into a picture: your streak, the moods showing up most this week, the people and themes that keep coming back, and how your entries trend over time. See the shape of things, not just today's note.
Review & Action
What you said out loud, turned into what you actually do.
Every task, reminder, and follow-up JourVox catches while you're talking lands here, sorted into Today, Upcoming, and Done, alongside a searchable record of every entry. Nothing you say gets lost in a transcript you'll never reopen.
Your second brain
Capture any time, not just at the end of the day.
JourVox isn't a once-a-day ritual. Open it mid-thought, mid-walk, mid-meltdown, and talk it out whenever something's worth capturing. Say "remind me to call the dentist next Tuesday" or "check in with me every Sunday night," and JourVox turns it into a real reminder, including recurring ones, so "every weekday at 9am" or "the first of every month" actually repeats correctly instead of firing once and disappearing.
Reflect
The week you didn't notice you were having
One entry is just a moment. A week of entries is a pattern. Reflect is where JourVox does the part you'd never do by hand: reading back through everything you've said and telling you what actually repeats.
01
Talk for a few days, however messy
Capture what's on your mind whenever it comes up. No structure needed, no minimum length. Reflect works off whatever you've actually said.
02
Open Reflect instead of scrolling back
Instead of rereading old entries one by one, Reflect pulls them together into your streak, your mood trend, and the people and themes that keep showing up.
03
Notice what you would have missed
A worry you mentioned four times without realizing it. A person who keeps coming up. A mood dip that has a shape once you see a week of it at once.
What Reflect shows you, from one real week
Streak
5-day streak
This week’s moods
anxious → tired → okay → okay → good
Keeps coming up
"mom" (4x) · "work deadline" (3x)
Try it with a week you'd otherwise forget: a normal, unremarkable one. That's usually where Reflect finds the most, because nothing in it felt worth writing down on its own.
Action & Records
Say it once, never dig for it again
Talking to JourVox does two things at once: whatever needs doing gets pulled out and sorted, and whatever you said stays on file, searchable, so a passing thought from three weeks ago is still one search away.
01
Say it the way you'd say it to a person
"Remind me to call the dentist next Tuesday, and check in with me Friday about the deadline." JourVox listens for the task inside the talking, no special phrasing required.
02
It lands in Action, already sorted
Every task and reminder JourVox catches gets filed under Today, Upcoming, or Done. You never have to go digging through a transcript to find what you asked yourself to do.
03
Every entry stays a searchable record
Nothing you say disappears into a pile of audio. Search by a name, a date, or a word you remember using, and every entry that mentions it comes back.
You said it once. Here's where it went.
Upcoming
Call the dentist · Tue
Upcoming
Check in about deadline · Fri
Done
Book flight for the trip
"dentist" → 3 entries, 3 different days
Try it the next time something crosses your mind mid-conversation with yourself: a thing to do, a name to remember, a thought to come back to. Say it, and let JourVox hold onto it.
The Science
Why saying it out loud works
Voice-first journaling isn't a gimmick. It's a shortcut around the three things that make people quit reflecting: the blank page, the self-editing, and the sense that none of it adds up to anything.
01
Friction is the real barrier
The #1 reason people quit reflecting isn't lack of insight, it's the two minutes of activation energy a blank page demands.
JourVox's answer
Today: one tap, no typing
Capture is a single tap and talking. JourVox transcribes it and files it under today automatically, no blank page ever shown.
02
Speech outruns the self-edit
Typing gives your inner editor time to soften or delete what you actually feel. Speaking moves faster than that filter.
JourVox's answer
Voice-first, not voice-optional
Every entry starts as spoken words, not typed ones. What lands in your journal is closer to what you actually felt in the moment.
03
One entry rarely means anything
What matters is what repeats: the same worry, the same mood dip, the same person coming up again and again.
JourVox's answer
In the worksReflect: streaks, moods, and what keeps repeating
Today, Reflect already surfaces your streak, this week's moods, and the people and themes that keep showing up. Next: choose your own lens (week, month, or year) to see the pattern at whatever timescale actually matters to you.
Grounded in research, extended by us. Decades of work on expressive writing, most notably James Pennebaker and Joshua Smyth's research, summarized in Opening Up by Writing It Down, link structured emotional reflection with lower reported stress and better emotional processing. That research was done on writing. JourVox's bet is that the same mechanism, putting language to feeling, holds for speaking it instead, with voice removing the one step (typing) that stops most people from doing it consistently.
JourVox supports reflection and self-awareness. It isn't therapy and doesn't replace a mental health professional.

FAQ
Questions, answered
What is JourVox?
JourVox is a voice-journaling app for iPhone. You talk, it transcribes and organizes your entry, then helps you reflect on it and spot patterns over time.
How is this different from just using voice memos?
Voice memos are audio you never revisit. JourVox transcribes automatically, prompts a follow-up reflection, and surfaces recurring themes week over week — the memo becomes something you can actually look back on.
Is my journal private?
Yes. Entries are yours — not sold, not used to train AI models, and not shared with third parties.
Does JourVox replace therapy?
No. JourVox supports self-reflection and awareness; it isn’t a substitute for a licensed mental health professional. If you’re in crisis, please contact a crisis line or emergency services in your area.
Does it work offline?
You can record offline — the entry is saved on your device right away. If there’s no connection when you’re done, it’s saved as a voice memo you can send for transcription and AI reflection with one tap once you’re back online.
What languages are supported?
JourVox transcribes 50+ languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Hindi, and Japanese. You can speak in whichever language feels most natural — it doesn’t need to match your device’s system language.
Can I export my entries?
Yes — export your entries as CSV or the original audio recordings from Settings at any time. Your data isn’t locked in.
How much does it cost?
Every feature is unlocked for a 3-day free trial (5 entries a day, 20 minutes of recording total, 5 minutes max per entry). After that, JourVox is $9.99/month or $99.99/year.
Is there a web app or Android version?
Not right now — JourVox is iPhone-only. We’re focused on getting voice journaling right on one platform before expanding.
Can JourVox remind me about things, not just journal?
Yes. Ask it to remind you once or on a repeating schedule — “every Sunday night,” “the 1st of every month” — and it’ll actually recur correctly, not just fire once.
