What it is
Ripple is a personal journal and task inbox that installs like an app. Speak or type a thought, tag it, and let an AI companion answer questions about your own history — “what was I worried about in March?”
Why I built it
Journaling apps are either empty notebooks or noisy productivity suites. I wanted something that captures a thought in five seconds and actually gives it back when it matters.
