A Mind That
Remembers You.
Yours Alone.

Ementi is a private AI companion that lives entirely on your iPhone. It remembers your journal, your goals, and your story — and draws on real psychology to help you become the person you want to be. Your journal, your goals, and your story are processed and stored on your device.

The Problem

You Don't Need
Another App.

You need a thinking partner — something that doesn't just track your goals, but helps you become the kind of person who reaches them.

Every goal app gives you a dashboard. Ementi gives you a thinking partner. Every journal app stores your thoughts. Ementi actually uses them. Every AI assistant answers your questions. Ementi asks the ones that matter.

Dashboard Apps
They track. They don't transform. You see numbers — not the person you're becoming.
Cloud AI Assistants
They read your private thoughts on someone else's servers. With Ementi, your vulnerability never becomes someone's product.
Vague Goals
"I want to be healthier." "I want to be successful." Vague goals produce vague results. Ementi makes them concrete.
"Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking."
— Marcus Aurelius

Ementi was built on a simple belief: the quality of your thinking shapes the quality of your life. It isn't just another app — it's a private thinking partner, drawing on timeless ideas about purpose, the psychology of self-image, and Stoic philosophy, running entirely on your phone.

How Ementi Thinks

One Companion.
Many Disciplines.

Ementi is a single companion you talk to. Behind that one voice, it's shaped by several ways of thinking — systems, psychology, strategy, and philosophy — so you get clear, synthesized insight without the complexity.

Systems & Leverage
Ementi thinks in systems and small wins that compound, building momentum so follow-through feels natural rather than forced.
Clarity & Direction
Ementi helps you name the real obstacle and map a clear path, so the next step is always obvious.
Self-Image & Psychology
Ementi treats how you see yourself as the foundation of what you achieve, and helps you strengthen it through visualization and reflection.
Purpose & Planning
Ementi helps you define what you truly want in writing, then breaks it into an organized, doable plan.
Perspective & Calm
Ementi helps you focus on what's in your control and let go of what isn't — a steadier way to pursue big goals.
Wisdom & Compassion
Ementi speaks with honesty and warmth, reminding you of what matters and meeting you where you are.
The System

Five Layers.
One Integrated System.

Ementi doesn't just track goals — it supports the whole person who reaches them. From how you see yourself to how you execute, every layer works together.

Purpose Layer
Your Definite Purpose
"Everything meaningful begins with a clear, written purpose."
  • Guided wizard to put your purpose in writing
  • Desire check — how much do you really want it? (1–10)
  • Belief-building with spaced repetition
  • Sub-goal breakdown and organized planning
  • Daily reading ritual with streak tracking
Psychology Layer
Self-Image Studio
"How you see yourself sets the ceiling on what you'll achieve. Raise it."
  • Build vivid success imagery — multi-sensory and personal
  • Notice and gently replace self-defeating self-talk
  • Guided mental rehearsal sessions with audio
  • Relaxation warm-up before visualization
  • Gentle, automatic course-correction as you go
Clarity Layer
Clarity Mapping
"When the path is clear, action follows."
  • A clear written declaration for every goal
  • Obstacle finder (external, internal, and mindset)
  • Simple 3-step plan builder — action, not ambiguity
  • Stakes — what happens if you don't act
  • Aspirational identity — who you become when you win
Systems Layer
Compelling Commitment
"Make the commitment so compelling that following through feels natural."
  • Map what you really want — not just the metric
  • See everything you gain by reaching the goal
  • A personal promise to yourself to keep you steady
  • Find the fastest first sign of progress
  • Shrink the first step until resistance disappears
Execution Layer
Universal Goal Tracking
"Any goal. Any metric. Any timeline — Ementi makes it trackable."
  • Just describe your goal in plain words — Ementi sets up the tracking
  • Adapts to any kind of goal automatically
  • Smart check-ins: progress, self-image, beliefs, visualization, clarity, and course-correction
  • Two-way Apple Health sync
  • Home screen widgets for progress, check-ins, and self-image
What Ementi Does

A Constellation of
Capabilities.

Twelve points of light today — and the constellation keeps growing with every update. Every capability connects to the others: your journal informs your self-image, your self-image drives your goals, your goals shape your thinking. Everything connected, and everything on your device.

Adaptive AI

Ementi draws on systems thinking, psychology, strategy, and philosophy — one voice, many disciplines — with insight tailored to your situation.

Self-Image Studio

Build vivid images of success and gently replace the self-doubt that holds you back. How you see yourself is the ceiling on what you achieve — so raise it.

Your Definite Purpose

A guided process to put what you want in writing, with a desire check, a daily reading ritual, organized sub-goals, and beliefs tied to your purpose.

Mental Rehearsal

Guided visualization with audio and a relaxation warm-up. Your mind responds powerfully to vivid, repeated imagery — Ementi helps you use it.

Belief Builder

Personal, meaningful affirmations tied to your purpose, delivered as gentle local notifications — morning, evening, and before sleep. Reinforce what moves you forward.

Clarity Mapping

A declaration generator, obstacle finder, and plan builder. When your goal is clear, the next step becomes obvious.

Compelling Commitment

Connect each goal to what you truly want, lower the friction to start, and make following through feel natural.

Self-Correcting Goals

Ementi notices when you drift and offers small corrections — protective when you're burning out, encouraging when you're on track.

Universal Goal Tracking

Any goal becomes trackable. Say "I want to write a novel" and Ementi sets up word count, chapters, and daily pages. Say "Learn Spanish" and it tracks study time and vocabulary. Just talk.

Remembers Your Story

Ementi remembers your journal, goals, and history, so every conversation is personal — never generic advice.

Smart Check-Ins

Progress, self-image, beliefs, visualization, clarity, course-correction, and strategic review. Context-aware and goal-specific. Guiding, not nagging.

Home Screen Widgets

Goal progress, upcoming check-ins, and a self-image confidence meter — right on your home screen, not buried in an app.

How It Works

Three Steps.
Zero Complexity.

Tell Ementi
Speak or type what you want. Any goal, any dream, any problem. Ementi understands plain language and sets up goals, metrics, and timelines for you. No forms. No templates. Just talk.
Ementi Builds Your Plan
Ementi shapes your clarity map, your written purpose, your self-image work, and a commitment you'll actually keep. Several ways of thinking work in the background. You get a clear plan.
Grow
Daily check-ins. Mental rehearsals. Personal affirmations. Strategic reviews. Gentle course-corrections. Over time, you don't just track progress — you become the person who reaches the goal.

Questions

What People Ask.
What We Answer.

Mostly, yes. Your day-to-day — journaling, goals, check-ins, and talking with Ementi — runs entirely on your device with no network. Ementi reaches the internet only for a one-time AI-model download, an occasional purchase or subscription check with Apple, and, if you use voice, a one-time speech language download. Your journal, goals, and conversations are never part of that, and reminders are local notifications from your phone.

Ementi requires iOS 18+ and an iPhone 15 Pro or later. On-device AI runs best with at least 8GB of RAM (iPhone 15 Pro or later) for the larger models. A smaller model runs on 6GB devices like the iPhone 15, with somewhat reduced quality.

Ementi is free to download, and your first week is free with no card needed. After that, keep going for $7.99 a month (which starts with its own 7-day free trial), or pay once — $89.99 — and you're done. Both unlock the full app; the one-time purchase is simply for people who already know they're in. Billing and cancellation are handled by Apple.

Yes. Say "I want to write a novel" and Ementi sets up word count, chapters, and daily writing time. Say "Learn Spanish" and it tracks study minutes, vocabulary, and conversation attempts. Say "Get a promotion" and it builds networking, skills, and projects. Just describe it in plain words — Ementi handles the setup.

Ementi is one companion you talk to. Behind that single voice, it's shaped by several ways of thinking — systems, psychology, strategy, and philosophy. You never have to pick a "mode"; Ementi chooses the right approach for your question. Complex decisions get synthesized perspective; simple questions get simple answers. You just talk.

Mental rehearsal is vivid, multi-sensory visualization of success. Ementi guides you through relaxation, then helps you build a detailed mental picture of reaching your goal. Your mind responds strongly to vivid, repeated imagery — athletes and performers have used visualization to support real-world performance for decades.

Short, meaningful statements tied to your purpose, repeated at helpful moments — on waking, before sleep, and before key activities. Ementi personalizes them to your goals and delivers them as gentle local notifications, so they stay private to your phone.

Yes. A full export includes your journal entries, goals, metric logs, conversations, check-ins, sessions, self-image profiles, mental rehearsal logs, affirmation history, and clarity declarations. Your data is your property — and since we never hold it, there's nothing to lock you into.

Not yet. Ementi is built on Apple's on-device frameworks (MLX, SwiftData, HealthKit), which are iOS-specific. An Android version would need a full rebuild on different on-device AI frameworks. If there's enough demand, we'll consider it — but for now we're focused on making the iOS experience exceptional.

Ementi's approach is inspired by timeless thinking on purpose and achievement, the psychology of self-image, and Stoic philosophy — from figures like Napoleon Hill, Maxwell Maltz, and Marcus Aurelius, alongside modern ideas about goals and habits. Ementi is an independent app and isn't affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by these authors or their estates; it simply stands on the shoulders of ideas that have helped people for generations.

Ementi is created, owned, and operated by Sandial LLC, a New Mexico limited liability company. It is built by one independent developer for people who care where their thoughts live and how their minds work — private by design, with no advertising or dark patterns.

"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

It Begins With You.

Ementi is the thinking partner you should have had all along. Private. Local. Personal. Not a dashboard — a companion. Not just a tracker — a system for becoming who you want to be.
