Everything you need to write about us.

Graphophone is a private, local-first AI journal. We don't run servers that touch your entries. The model that reflects with you runs on your device. The page below has the facts, quotes, and logos you need — and a real email for follow-ups.

A conversation in dark mode: the writer's messages and the AI's replies in one thread.

The one-paragraph version

Graphophone is a private, local-first AI journal. Every entry is encrypted on-device with XChaCha20-Poly1305. The model that reflects with you runs on your device — no account, no request leaves the device unless you say so. When you point it at a model server you run yourself, every call is logged in plain sight inside the app. Graphophone Depth — a one-time Lifetime Pass or a monthly/yearly plan — adds the proactive larger on-device models, a year of history in Insights, hands-free conversation and a model server you run yourself; the whole core stays free either way, and there is no advertising. No analytics, no third-party trackers.

What stands out

Notable features

  • On-device AI reflection (zero data exfiltration in the default path).
  • In-app AI audit log: every reply a model generates — and every request that reaches a server you configured — is logged with provider, model, byte count, and outcome.
  • Per-tag AI access controls (#therapy → never reaches the cloud).
  • Decoy vault + panic wipe for coercion scenarios.
  • Shamir-split legacy mode for long-term key recovery (coming).
  • One-button Markdown export to a complete Obsidian-compatible vault.
  • Weekly and monthly insight reports, generated on your device by default.
