Ambera is a debt tracker for your energy.
Most apps tell you how you feel. Ambera tells you what you owe — whether you've been recovering faster than you've been spending. By the time burnout feels real, the debt has been building for weeks. Ambera makes the imbalance visible while it's still yours to adjust.
HOW IT WORKS
Every activity is one signed entry on a ledger. A meeting, a walk, a hard conversation, eight hours of sleep — mark whether it spent energy or restored it, and give it a 1–5 intensity. Two taps.
Three numbers do the work:
• Today's net — what you've actually booked today.
• Your rolling 7-day balance — am I in the red?
• A cumulative line — is the trajectory recovering or sinking?
Frame a stretch ahead with an arc — name the shape you expect a week or a sprint to take, from heavy depletion to heavy recovery, then watch how the days actually unfold against it. Too busy to log? The daily energy check-in lets you rate how yesterday left you in a tap, and Ambera fills in whatever you didn't capture. Close the day with a short reflection. The ledger reads from one place, so every screen agrees.
THE EMBER, NOT THE FLAME
A flame burns bright and consumes its fuel. A dead coal is the other failure mode. An ember is heat that's sustained — that's the practice Ambera is designed around. Watching what you add and take from the fire so you stay at temperature for the long run.
WHAT IT WON'T DO
Ambera reports patterns; it doesn't prescribe. "Your week is leaning depletive" — never "you should rest." The interpretation stays yours. No streaks, no XP, no pressure notifications.
THE FREE TIER, FOR KEEPS
Manual logging, today and 7-day balances, the cumulative chart, arcs, the daily energy check-in, the reflection journal, the activities Ambera surfaces from your own routine, voice-to-text dictation, and the quiet nudge when your week starts leaning depletive — free, and staying free.
PREMIUM
For when you want the ledger to fill itself in — and start reading itself back.
• Google Calendar and Linear sync — your meetings and tickets appear as suggested entries, already set to the direction and intensity you'd usually give them. You confirm or adjust; nothing lands silently.
• AI assist in the activity sheet — type a short note, and Ambera proposes the direction and intensity. You review and save.
• Describe your day — a chat that turns "busy morning: 1:1 then focus block until lunch" into ledger entries you edit before saving. Type or speak; reply to refine in place.
• Tailored planning — your arc generates a personalised list of activities, drawn from your "About you" notes and your own recent history (so a 3 means what it means to you).
• Reflection gap-fill — the evening reflection reads itself against today's ledger and proposes activities your note mentions but you haven't logged.
• What's been working — a daily observation drawn from your recent history, naming the recovery that's most reliably restored balance after tough days.
• What your weeks reveal — a short read of the patterns across your weeks: the day that tends to run hardest, what usually follows a demanding stretch. Grounded only in your own data.

PRIVACY
Your ledger is yours. We don't sell it, mine it for advertising, or share it with employers, insurers, or analytics brokers. Anything sent to our AI runs under terms that prohibit training on your data — assists fire only when you ask, and daily Premium reads draw only from your own ledger.
Built for people who've learned the hard way that effectiveness, mood, and health start sliding together — usually before you notice.
