Merrin
On-device · private
What was that ramen place I liked in Tokyo?
Ichiran in Shibuya. You wrote that the tonkotsu broth was the best you'd had.
Japan trip · Apr 2026Right — wasn't I going to catch up with Alex after that?
You were. After the trip you noted wanting to see Alex once you were back — your close friend from the Tokyo days.
Set a reminder to message him Friday.
Done — Friday, 6:00 PM. I'll bring this back up then.

Merrin is a personal intelligence that helps you think, remember, and understand yourself over time.
You talk or write about your day, and what matters — conversations, journal entries, people, and decisions — becomes a private history on your device. Over time, Merrin connects your experiences so you can notice patterns and see how you're changing.
Merrin isn't a simulated friend, and it isn't a stand-in for the people in your life. It's a private intelligence you can talk to — and the character is simply how you reach it.
I can't decide whether to take the new role.
What's pulling you toward it — the work itself, or what it says about where you're headed?
Voice or text. The same Merrin either way, and both stay on your device.
Merrin isn't something you visit once. It's for the thinking you're already doing.
Talk about an idea, a difficult decision, or something on your mind. Merrin can offer different perspectives without losing the context of your conversation.
Conversations can become journal entries. Important people, ideas, experiences, and decisions become part of your searchable personal history.
Look back at recurring thoughts, changing priorities, or unfinished decisions. Merrin helps connect experiences across days, weeks, and months.
Anyone can recall a fact. Merrin connects what you've talked about — and helps you see what it says about how you're changing.
What did I decide about my career last month?
You decided to finish the current project first, and to revisit the decision in the new year.

In the app, every insight links back to the conversations behind it.How the memory loop works, in engineering detail
Sometimes you need someone to listen. Sometimes you need a different perspective. Choose how Merrin responds to your thoughts.
I'm thinking about leaving my job.
The same message, answered three ways.
"What's been making you feel that way?"
Makes space for you to talk it out.
"What's the biggest thing keeping you from making that decision?"
Helps you move from thinking to deciding.
"Before you leave, are you sure the problem is the job and not something temporary?"
Tests the decision from the other side.
Also available
Talk, and what matters is remembered; over time, Merrin connects your experiences so you understand them. A simple loop that becomes more useful the longer you keep it.
Talk about your day, an idea, or something you're working through — by voice or text.
What matters becomes part of your personal history: conversations, journal entries, people, and decisions.
Over time, Merrin connects experiences and helps you notice patterns — and how you're changing.
Merrin's core intelligence runs on your device. Your conversations, memories, and journal remain under your control.
Core AI processing runs on your phone, not on a remote server.
Once the models are installed, the core app keeps working without a connection.
See, edit, export, or delete your personal data at any time.
What you control
We read the policies of ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, and Grok and quoted what they actually say
Some features use the internet when needed — for example downloading AI models, processing purchases, checking configuration and updates, or optional diagnostics and online services. These are described in the Privacy Policy.
You can start free. Core local use stays useful for free — a private place to talk, journal, remember, and understand your patterns. Pro adds deeper memory and reflection as your history grows.
A private place to think, talk, and keep a journal.
Unlock deeper memory, journaling, and personal understanding.
Pay once. Keep Pro forever, including future Pro features.
Free gives you a private place to think.
Pro gives Merrin the ability to understand your history: remembering useful context, finding related thoughts, turning conversations into journal entries, and surfacing patterns over time.
Merrin is in final development and is coming soon to the App Store and Google Play. Join the waitlist and we'll email you the moment it's available.
It means Merrin is built around your own history rather than general knowledge. It remembers what you've talked about, connects experiences across days and weeks, and helps you understand how your thinking is changing — privately, on your device.
Merrin is designed so its core AI operates on your device. Your conversations, journal entries, memories, transcripts, and generated insights are intended to stay on your device during normal local use. Some features do use the internet — for example downloading AI models, processing purchases, retrieving configuration, and optional diagnostics or online services.
Core functionality such as conversation, journaling, search, and memory is designed to keep working without an internet connection after the required AI models are installed. Initial model downloads and purchases need an internet connection.
Yes. Inside the app you can view what Merrin remembers, edit or delete individual memories, exclude individual conversations, disable memory, and export or delete your stored data. Because this data lives on your device, deleting it in the app is immediate and permanent, and we do not keep a server-side copy.
Yes. You can do it at any time, without contacting us. Open Settings in Merrin and choose the delete or reset option to erase all locally stored data, including conversations, journal entries, memories, transcripts, insights, and downloaded AI models. Individual items can be deleted as you go. Merrin does not require an account, so there is nothing to close or deactivate. Deletion is immediate and permanent on your device, and uninstalling the app also removes its local data.
No. Merrin is not funded by selling your personal conversations, journal entries, or memories for advertising, and it does not use that content for targeted ads. Optional analytics — enabled only with consent where required — may record events such as app opens, model downloads, or crashes, not your journal or conversation text.
Free includes text conversations, basic voice conversations, a manual journal, and private local storage. Pro adds automatic journaling, long-term memory, search by meaning, and personal insights. Exporting your data is available on every plan.
Paid plans are purchased through the native in-app purchase systems on the Apple App Store or Google Play, which process your payment. After purchase, the store's entitlement information is linked to your user identifier so Pro features unlock and can be restored if you reinstall the app or move to another supported device. We never receive your full payment card details. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel them in the platform's subscription settings, and refunds, billing periods, and taxes follow the relevant store's policies and your local consumer law.
Merrin is available on supported iOS and Android devices. Because AI models run on your device, quality and available features can vary with device hardware and storage.
No. Merrin is built for reflection, journaling, and self-awareness — not medical, mental-health, legal, or financial advice, and it is not an emergency service. AI output can be inaccurate, so use your own judgement.
On-device means the language model runs on your phone instead of a remote server, so your conversations stay local during normal use and core features work without a connection. For personal conversation, journaling, and recall, on-device models are capable and private. Very large cloud models can still handle more knowledge-heavy tasks, but they need your content sent to a server. Quality can vary with your device's hardware and storage.
