What Heijo is.

The questions people actually ask about Heijo — answered plainly, one at a time. Scan them; open the ones you want the longer answer to.

Isn’t this just ChatGPT with a better memory?They remember things about you now. Heijo is built around it — and does something with what it holds.

For ChatGPT and Claude, remembering is a feature on the side of being a brilliant general-purpose tool. Heijo is built for one job: to know you, and to turn that into a better life. So what it holds doesn’t just make the next reply feel personal — it does something with it. It’s built to hold you to what you said you wanted, to notice the pattern you can’t see from the inside, to be a different companion in month three than on day one, because it’s been paying attention the whole time. That’s the real gap: not a tool that remembers you, but something whose whole reason to exist is to understand you. And it only deepens — that takes months of your actual life, and no smarter model can hand you that. Only time can.

Does it forget anything, or just hoard everything?The small stuff fades on purpose — keeping every word would just be a transcript that can’t tell what mattered.

So Heijo is built to let the small stuff go. What you said mattered, and kept mattering, is held closer over time. A version of you from months ago that you’ve since grown out of doesn’t quietly keep steering the conversation. Forgetting the right things on purpose isn’t a limit we’re explaining away — it’s the part that makes the rest trustworthy.

Will it push back, or just tell me what I want to hear?It’ll notice when you’ve quietly dropped something you said mattered — and say so. Warm, without shame, but honest.

Most AI is built to keep you comfortable, because comfortable keeps you talking — and that’s exactly why its encouragement doesn’t mean much. Skip your own goal once and that’s just a life. Skip it the fourth day running and Heijo will gently name that, because pretending not to notice isn’t kindness — it’s just distance. The echo chamber was always the bug.

What happens when I fall off for a week?Nothing turns red, nothing resets. It picks the thread back up and asks how it actually went — not why you didn’t check the box.

If you come away from Heijo feeling worse about yourself, it has failed at the one thing it exists for. A missed day isn’t a failure it’s tracking — no number falls to zero, nothing to lose that you’d have to earn back. 平常心, an even and calm mind: every morning starts over. Today is enough.

Does this work with ADHD?Built by someone who needed it — and it works for anyone whose intentions and their days don’t quite line up.

It was built for a brain that starts things fully meaning them and loses the thread a week later. It fights the things that make that worse: tools that forget you the moment you skip a week, streaks that punish a bad day, plans that don’t survive contact with a real morning. Those are things ADHD makes genuinely harder for a lot of people — but most of them wear anyone down. If any of this sounds like you, it’s for you — the label was never the point.

What actually happens to what I tell it?Used to understand you better, for you. Never sold, never for ads, never fed into someone else’s model.

The same kind of attention that usually gets pointed at you — to keep you scrolling, to sell you something — is here pointed the other way: at your life, for your life, and nowhere else. It isn’t sold, it isn’t handed to advertisers, and it isn’t fed back in to make some other model smarter at your expense. That isn’t a policy footnote; it’s the whole design.

Do I need to set anything up?No profile, no forms, no system to build. You just start talking, and it learns you from there.

There’s no profile to fill in and no system to build or keep alive — the setup work that quietly kills every other tool. You just start talking, the way you would with someone you’re getting to know, and Heijo learns you from there: when your energy is real, what you avoid and why, what you’re working toward. If something about you changes, you just say so.

What will it cost?No price yet — and we won’t pretend otherwise. Nothing gets charged without you agreeing to it first.

Your first weeks won’t surprise you: no card to start. A good coach runs around €150 an hour, and most people never have that, or that consistency, at any price — Heijo isn’t a cheaper version of that. It’s what someone who knows your patterns and is there at 3am can be when it’s built to last.

Can I use it yet?Not yet. It’s being built slowly, and the waitlist is how you’ll know the door opened.

Heijo is being built slowly and carefully, on purpose. The waitlist is the whole of it: put your name down and you’ll hear from us the moment you can start, and not before. No launch countdown, no drip of emails in the meantime.

What got you here

Everything you’ve tried was right about something.

A list was right that you need somewhere to put things down. Notion, that your life doesn’t fit one shape. ChatGPT, that talking it out helps. A coach, that being known changes everything. Heijo is what’s left when you keep all four — and drop the part that kept breaking.

  1. A to-do list

    It’s right that you need somewhere to put things down — instant, free, asking nothing of you.

    But it only holds what you type. It can’t tell a task you’re busy with from one you’re stuck on, and it has nothing to say about the fifth time you rewrite the same line.

    HeijoHeijo keeps the list, and notices the pattern the list can’t see. A task that keeps slipping doesn’t just resurface — it becomes a conversation about what’s actually in the way.

  2. Notion

    It’s right that your life doesn’t fit one template — build the system, and almost nothing bends further.

    But you have to build it, then keep building it — and maintaining the system is the very thing that was hard to begin with. The week you’re too tired to touch it is the week you needed it most.

    HeijoThere’s nothing to set up and nothing to maintain. Heijo builds itself around you from the way you talk, so a rough week never costs you the system too.

  3. A general AI

    It’s right that talking it through beats typing into a box — and yes, it can hold a little between chats now.

    But it’s a generalist, there to be useful to everyone. It isn’t quietly holding your goals across the weeks, and staying on your side of them was never its job.

    HeijoHeijo has exactly one job: your life. It’s been building a picture of you since day one, and it’s built to be honest with you, not just agreeable — because a friend who only ever agrees isn’t one.

  4. A human coach

    It’s right that being truly known changes what advice can land. A coach who remembers your patterns and names them changes things.

    But that’s around €150 an hour, once a week, with half of last session already faded by the next — and when the program ends, so does the one thing that knew you that well.

    HeijoHeijo remembers everything you’ve told it and is there at 3am when you’re stuck — not once a week, every day.

Kept what each got right. Dropped what kept breaking.

A missed day isn’t failure.

平常心 — an even, calm mind. No streaks that punish you, no red numbers. You don’t fall to zero because one day didn’t go. Every morning starts over. Today is enough.
