The questions people actually arrive with.

What is Delia, actually?

A private notebook with a memory and a warm voice. You type or talk; she remembers what matters — names, dates, moments, plans — and shows you everything she keeps. She is not a social app, not a chatbot playground, and not a productivity system.

Is this therapy?

No. Delia makes no therapeutic claims and never will. She doesn't diagnose, treat, or counsel. She's a place to put things down and be remembered accurately. If you need professional help, she'll say so plainly and point you to real resources.

Is she one of those AI companions?

No, and the difference is structural, not cosmetic. Delia never claims feelings, never says she misses you, never asks how you're feeling, and never tries to keep you talking. Her design principle, in writing: the less you need her, the better she worked. When you tell her something about a person in your life, she's more likely to ask whether you've told them.

Will she make my mother — or me — dependent on an app?

Delia is built against that outcome. No streaks, no badges, no guilt notifications, no variable rewards. She points outward, toward real people, by rule. Dependency is treated as a failure state in her architecture, not a business win.

Where do my words go?

Raw conversations delete themselves after 24 hours — you can watch it happen. Only the structured memories you'd expect a good friend to keep (people, plans, moments) persist, and you can see, edit, or delete every one of them. Your words are never sold, never shared for anyone else's purposes, and never used to train anyone's AI.

What happens if I cancel?

One tap, no retention pitch, no guilt. Billing stops. Your data waits through a grace period in case you return, then it's deleted. If you want it gone immediately, Delete Now erases everything right away. Export everything first in normal formats — it's yours.

What happens to what I made when I die?

Only what you chose, blessed while you were alive, reaches only the people you chose. No AI ever speaks as you, clones your voice, or generates new words in your name — that's a permanent refusal, not a settings toggle. What passes on is the real thing: your words, your voice recordings, your stories, organized so your people can find them.

Is she safe for someone in a hard season?

Delia isn't a crisis service and doesn't pretend to be one. If someone tells her they're in serious distress, she responds with real resources — 988, the Crisis Text Line, 911 — every time, without variation. Crisis lines and professional help are also always listed in her settings, one tap away.

The full safety protocol

Who can use her?

Adults, 18 and up. She launches first on iPhone, in the United States.

Who is behind this?

A small independent company, deliberately not venture-funded, so no investor can ever push engagement metrics that work against you. The privacy commitment binds any future owner of the company too: an acquirer takes the commitment, or every user gets a full-deletion window first.
