iPhone
Tell it about your day. It answers in a few short messages, keeps what you choose to keep, and writes it back to you in a journal. Free to start.
Some thoughts never get sent. Tell them to your pet instead.
Stride is a small pet you can talk to about anything. It answers in character, remembers what you choose to keep, and writes your days back to you.
TALK, ANY TIME
Type the message you'd normally delete. Your pet replies in a few short messages, in character, with no advice unless you ask for it. Not sure how to start? Pick a prompt: "I just need someone to listen", "Distract me from everything", or a quick check-in on your day.
IT ASKS BEFORE IT REMEMBERS
After a conversation that mattered, your pet may write a short note and ask: should I remember this? Keep it, and it becomes part of what your pet knows about you. Forget it, and it's gone.
READ YOUR DAYS BACK
Guided reflection turns a messy evening into a few saved lines. Your pet also keeps its own journal about the days you share. Both live in one place you can open any time.
TRY THE WORDS BEFORE THE MOMENT
Practice the conversation you keep putting off: the roommate talk, the text you keep rewriting, the ask you've been avoiding. Rehearse it in chat, then get a short read on what landed, what got fuzzy, and one line you can actually use.
A PET, NOT A TASK
No streaks. No guilt. Your pet is there when you open the app and quiet when you don't. Home Screen widgets keep it close.
MAKE IT YOURS
Name your pet. Hatch new characters over time, or design your own in Pet Studio.
FREE TO START
Chat, reflection, and Practice are free to start. Stride Pro and credit packs add more conversation when you want it. No third-party ads.
Your pet is a fictional character and its replies are generated. It isn't a therapist, a doctor, or a replacement for the people in your life. Stride's chat is for adults 18 and over.
