Use a voice journal for personal reflection
Sometimes you just need to talk it out. Use Chela to capture a personal reflection, keep the details together and return to earlier entries. Reading your own account of a difficult week can help you notice what you want to discuss or change.
Turn Talk into TasksStop losing brilliant ideas.
A useful record keeps the details you want to return to: names, decisions, questions and next steps. Chela can process a voice note into organised information that you can review and search. State what matters in the recording, then check the resulting note before using it elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my voice journal completely private?
Yes. We use industry-leading encryption to secure your data. We do not sell your data, and we do not use your private reflections to train foundational AI models.
Can I search through my past journal entries?
Yes. Unlike a standard audio recorder, CHELA transcribes and indexes your notes semantically. You can search for "thoughts on my career change" and find the exact entries.
Will the AI give me therapy advice?
No. CHELA is a tool for self-reflection, not a replacement for professional therapy. It helps organize and track your thoughts but does not provide medical or psychological advice.
Can I export my journal?
Chela supports exporting an individual note as PDF. Review the note first, and check the export options available in your installed version. This does not promise Markdown downloads, bulk exports or automatic synchronisation with Notion or Obsidian.

Download ChelaWhat to check before relying on it
Chela is not therapy, a crisis service or a clinically validated mental-health tool. If you need care or support, seek a qualified professional rather than relying on an AI interpretation.
