From entries to a brief

three notes, one short brief.

Project planning has been taking up therapy prep this week. I keep coming back to deadlines, Morgan, and the way the launch pressure sits in my body.

Another project planning note: Morgan asked about the launch timeline and I noticed the same tight feeling before the team meeting.

The project planning pattern showed up again today. I want to understand why the deadlines and Morgan conversations stay with me after work.

Inside Carnet

simple journal, source-backed prep.

Write entries.

Keep the record simple: dated notes, imported entries, and a timeline you can return to.

Inspect cues.

Themes, names, tone cues, and Reflection Maps open back to source entries.

Take the brief.

Copy or export Markdown. Your journal stays yours.

Reflection Map

patterns you can inspect, not conclusions you have to accept.

Tap a theme to see the entries and names behind it. Carnet shows possible connections; you decide whether they matter.

Possible patterns

your own arc, drawn from what you wrote.

Rough tone cues, not a mood diagnosis.

Privacy by architecture

no account. no cloud AI for journal content. no analytics.

Entries stay on device. iCloud sync, if you turn it on, runs through your own private CloudKit database. Carnet has no server for your journal.

On-device only. Text analysis, retrieval, themes, OCR, and on-device speech transcription run through Apple frameworks on your phone.

No third-party SDKs. No telemetry. Read the full privacy policy →

Your journal stays yours

import, inspect, and take your records with you.

Bring in Apple Journal exports, write new entries, and export a human-readable Markdown library plus structured JSON. Carnet should make your record more useful, not harder to leave.

a journal you can bring back.
