There's One Person in Your Head More Than Anyone Else. You Probably Don't Know Who.
Daylogue's new People view ranks the people who keep showing up in your entries, and shows you how you've been feeling each time they do. Most users are surprised by who's at the top.
LOS ANGELES, CA, January 20, 2027 / PRNewswire / — Daylogue today launched People, a new view that ranks the specific humans who keep appearing in a user's journal entries and shows how the user has been feeling each time each person comes up. No other app does this.
Most people can name who they think about most. Most people are wrong. You assume it's your partner or your boss, and sometimes it is, but just as often it's a sibling you thought you'd made peace with, a friend you haven't seen in a year, an ex you swore you were over, a parent you don't even realize you're still arguing with in your head. The people who occupy our attention aren't always the people we'd name if someone asked. The ones who take up the most real estate often live below the level of what we notice.
People surfaces the list. Users open the view and see something like: "Your brother shows up in 31 of your last 50 entries. You felt misunderstood in 22 of them, relieved in 4." Or: "Your partner appeared in 47 entries. Your energy was higher on the days you wrote about them." Or: "Your manager has been the most-mentioned person at work for five weeks straight. You wrote 'tired' in 18 of those entries." The app isn't interpreting. It's counting, and it's connecting each person to the feelings that showed up alongside them.
"The first time I looked at my own People view, I was caught off guard," said Brandon Bibbins, Founder and CEO of Daylogue. "I had a partner at the top of the list, which I expected. But number two wasn't anyone I would have predicted. It was someone I'd been thinking I was done processing. The data told me I wasn't. That's the whole thing with Daylogue. The people you can't stop thinking about aren't always the people you know you can't stop thinking about. The app just counts and tells you."
People tracks three things, together:
- Who: the specific humans who keep appearing, a partner, a sibling, a parent, a friend, a coworker, an ex, identified by the name or relationship the user uses in their own entries
- How often: the actual count, across any time window the user picks, with a plain-language read on whether that person is appearing more or less than they used to
- How you've felt: the feelings that tend to show up when that person does, tired, loved, anxious, grateful, misunderstood, proud, so users can see the emotional shape of each relationship, not just its frequency
- Private on the most-used path: entries written in the Daylogue app are end-to-end encrypted on the user's device before upload, so Daylogue cannot read those entries at rest. People analysis runs on Daylogue's server because the AI model does; the analysis happens inside the user's session and the resulting People summaries are encrypted at rest. SMS and email check-ins follow the same server-side path. The full privacy map is published on daylogue.io/privacy.
- Useful before a conversation: a user can pull up their People view before a therapy session, a hard talk with a partner, or a call with a parent, and walk in already knowing what's been going on for them
"Most of us carry around a rough idea of who matters to us and who doesn't," said LaShawn M., Head of Brand and Growth at Daylogue. "Daylogue surfaces the more uncomfortable truth, who you're actually thinking about. Sometimes it matches your story about your life and sometimes it doesn't. Either way, it's information you didn't have this morning."
People is available now in Daylogue on iOS via the App Store and on the web at daylogue.io. Android is in active development. People is included at no additional cost for all users.
Daylogue is not therapy and is not a replacement for professional care. People is a self-reflection tool, not a diagnostic one. Daylogue does not generate labels, scores, or diagnoses about anyone named in a user's entries, only counts and associations drawn from what the user themselves wrote.
About Daylogue
Daylogue is a pattern journal that reads your past entries and detects the emotional patterns running through them. Instead of a stack of separate journal entries, you get a short, plain-language summary that updates over time: what topics keep coming back, when a pattern is repeating, what's shifted in the last few weeks. Daylogue is not therapy and is not a replacement for professional care. It is a private space on your phone for honest reflection, a companion to therapy, to hard conversations, and to the days when you want to know yourself a little better. Entries written inside the Daylogue app are end-to-end encrypted on your device before upload, so Daylogue cannot read them. (SMS and email check-ins, and AI-generated summaries, are handled on the server and are not end-to-end encrypted. See Daylogue's privacy page for the full map.) Founded by Brandon Bibbins, Daylogue is independent and available on iOS and web at daylogue.io.
