🎉
🎉 Mindsera 2.0 is out!

It's been quite a long pause without new features, we know. Creating anything worthwhile is a long journey, so thanks for sticking around – your support means the world to us.

Instead of trickling out small updates, we've been heads-down, completely redesigning Mindsera based on your feedback. The result? An app that's simpler, more intuitive, and dare we say... magical. Our goal is to make a space where your inner voice take center stage, rather than being just another AI chatbot.

We remain committed to our core values, and we believe in a human-centric AI that enhances your mind, but doesn't try to replace it. Your thoughts, your creativity, your life should be the centerpiece.

Freedom and privacy of thought are non-negotiable to us. Your writing is fully encrypted, both at rest and in transit. As an independent company, we answer to you - our users - and no one else. This lets us grow thoughtfully, ensuring our values shine through in everything we build.

2024

November

  • ✅ General UI update – We re-designed the whole app, so it’s more simple and intuitive to use.
  • ✅ Dashboard – Every time you open Mindsera, you're greeted with prompts crafted from your previous journaling entries. Click on a prompt, start with a blank entry, or kick off a voice entry.
  • ✅ Custom Frameworks – There are also two frameworks available to help you start or end your day. Simply swipe down or click the arrow at the bottom of the screen. You can easily customize the frameworks by changing, adding, or removing questions as needed. There is also an option to add 'smart questions' for more variability.
  • ✅ Go Deeper – A button that generates custom questions based on what you've written, similar to the "Infinite prompts" in the first version. This helps you to dig deeper in your thinking.
  • ✅🔥 Minds – This is something we're very excited about! It's a completely new type of interface where your thoughts are the centerpiece, and AI works in the background while you write. Minds scan your writing and leave personalized and insightful comments. Enable or disable Minds anytime, or create your own. You can also make a paragraph active and ask any question about it, or apply a mind to it similar to the Thought Analysis in the first Mindsera version. Also, all mind chats are saved, so you can come back to them at any time. No need to worry about losing mentor chats anymore.
  • ✅ Updated ‘Finish Entry’ Analysis – You’ll see three things: A streak tracker to help you build the positive habit of reflection. Emotional state analysis showing emotions and their frequency, based on Mindsera's proprietary model built on Plutchik's emotions framework. Click on an emotion to see a short summary of why it was detected and the relevant thoughts. AI-generated artwork based on your entry.
  • ✅ Personalise AI generated artworks – Select your gender, ethnicity, and age for better output.
  • ✅ Edit Entries After Analysis – Small update, but big at the same time. You can write more, chat with Minds, or re-analyze an entry anytime.
  • ✅ Metadata for Entries – Add tags or change the creation date. View word count and writing time under metadata.
  • ✅ Two Views for Entries – In addition to the original grid view, there is now also a list view.
  • ✅ Advanced Entries Sorting – Sort entries by date, tags, emotions, or type.
  • ✅ Advanced Entries Search – You can search entries based on meaning. Simply write in natural language, and Mindsera will find what you’re looking for.
  • ✅ Insights page: Streak + Calendar – A quick overview of your stats and a calendar, so you can visually see the days you've journaled. Great for habit building.
  • ✅🔥 Insights page: Emotional State Analysis – This is a big feature! You can pick any timeframe (even your whole journal) and see all the emotions detected in that timeframe. Also, you will get a detailed overview of the topics and thoughts that caused that emotion and you can also see all the entries where the emotion was detected or ask questions about it.
  • ✅ Insights page: Personality – The personality analysis is based on the Big Five personality model, one of the most widely used and scientifically supported personality models. You can pick any timeframe.
  • ✅ Insights page: Recurring Topics – You can get an overview of your thought patterns for any timeframe.
  • ✅ Insights page: Suggestions – Get six personalized suggestions based on your chosen timeframe.
  • ✅🔥 Chat with Your Journal – Imagine ChatGPT, but with your whole journal as context. Pick any timeframe and ask any question about your journal. It feels like magic, and we're going to make it even better in the coming months.
  • ✅ Frameworks Writing View – Use natural language to search and get framework recommendations.
  • ✅ Advanced Frameworks Search – Use natural language to search and get framework recommendations.
