Create a shared diary: Start by inviting your person - your partner, spouse, parent, sibling, or anyone close to you.
Set a time frame: Choose a reflection period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) that both of you commit to.
Write daily entries: Each day, both of you write about your day - up to 2000 characters. Add a photo if you’d like. You’ll get gentle reminders to keep the habit going.
No peeking: You can’t see each other’s entries until the period ends.
Reveal day: Once the chosen period is over, you both unlock the full diary and discover what each of you wrote day by day.
AI-powered insights: After both of you complete your entries for the day, dairi’s smart AI gives each of you a private, personalized tip - designed to nurture your relationship, based only on your own entry.
