An AI companion for reflection, in text or voice

Make the setup feel familiar

Choose a name for your companion, then select a voice if you want to talk aloud. Review the voice and microphone choices before starting. You can also type. Voice availability and usage limits are checked in the app; SmartSober does not promise unlimited conversation time.

Memory is a choice

The app offers a limited saved note you can choose to include in companion conversations. This is not unrestricted access to everything you have done in SmartSober. Review the note and sharing choices in the app rather than assuming the companion knows your journal, Health information, contacts or peer conversations.

Know where your conversation goes

With your consent, companion requests go through SmartSober to OpenAI for a response. The companion service does not save a transcript in our database; provider data-handling policies still apply. Voice has its own permission and privacy flow. The website privacy policy explains what is stored and shared.

Keep people part of your support

An AI reply can be useful for reflection, but it can also be wrong. The companion is not a person with lived experience, a clinician, a sponsor or an emergency service. It cannot contact your person or dispatch help. Use My Person or peer connection when you want to reach another person.

Before you join

SmartSober is in private iPhone beta and is not yet publicly available on the App Store. Join the waiting list for testing opportunities and launch news. The current private beta is complimentary. We plan a seven-day free trial followed by $9.99 per month at public launch, subject to the final App Store offer. Joining the waitlist does not start a trial or authorize a charge.
