tell me what they meant.
tell them what you mean.
Paste a text from your mom, your boss, your partner. Decode reads between the lines, then drafts three reply versions: warmer, neutral, or with a boundary. Built for cross-cultural and intergenerational communication, where ChatGPT lacks calibration.
what they said
妈，今天吃什么？随便。
what they meant
when she said "随便", she meant "i'm tired and want you to choose".
from someone with authority, terse = displeased. don't read it as casual.
what they need
a clean yes or no.
how it works.
One paste. Three layers. Three drafts. No magic, no LLM phoning home — the decoding engine runs entirely on your phone.
-
3-layer decode WHAT THEY SAID, WHAT THEY MEANT, WHAT THEY NEED — annotated with amber subtext markers on the words doing the most work.
-
3 reply drafts Warmer · neutral · with a boundary. Hundreds of millions of distinct draft combinations, biased to your relationship and the tone of their message.
-
Iteration mode "If I send this, what happens?" Decode plays three turns ahead — predicting their reply, their feeling, and the dominant risk in your draft.
-
Relationship library 20+ presets — mom (chinese / western), boss, partner, mother-in-law, japanese client, landlord. Each profile lives only on your device. "Forget" wipes it instantly.
-
Cross-cultural calibration Trained signals for 随便, 都行, 没事, 妈妈不容易, 検討します, 難しい, إن شاء الله, "fine.", "we'll see", "per my last email", "noted." — phrases that mean different things in different rooms.
privacy is the product.
Texts are intimate. We refuse to build a business that treats them otherwise.
