Glimpse

Glimpse is a voice journal that transcribes your spoken thoughts and helps you make sense of them with AI. Speak naturally and Glimpse turns it into a clean, searchable journal entry, no typing required. Journaling stalls when you don't know what to say, so it also ships with hundreds of prompts across twelve themes, plus AI-generated prompts for any custom theme you want to explore.

Once you've built up entries, Glimpse can summarize your week, surface patterns in how you're feeling, and hold a conversation about a past entry, a way to look back at your own thinking with some distance.

Privacy was a hard requirement from day one. Entries stay on-device (or in iCloud if you turn that on), there's no ad tracking, and if you use an AI feature your input goes to OpenAI just long enough to generate a response, then it's gone. Glimpse is also fully personalizable: theme color, app icon, dark mode, and custom tags and prompts to make it your own.

I founded, designed, and built Glimpse end to end. It's live on the App Store with a 4.8-star rating from over 350 reviews.
