Can therapists recommend ALYGN to clients?

Yes. ALYGN is light practice between conversations. Clients open alygn.me on any device, with no account or install to start, and bring what they noticed to the next session. If they want you to see the picture, they add you as a collaborator from the app and send you a link.

Is client data private?

What a client analyses is sent to the AI (Google Gemini, through our own server, not used to train models) and kept only in their private space, visible only to them, deletable at any time, never shared with you or anyone else unless they choose to. With an account, the text of their readings and the names and notes about people are encrypted on their device before they leave it. The collaborator page carries numbers and ids, never text.

No. ALYGN is a communication coaching tool, not therapy or clinical assessment. It surfaces patterns in a client's own writing, the gap between what they meant and how it landed, and the communication style, as self-reflection material between sessions. Nothing it outputs is a diagnosis.

What ALYGN is not

A coaching tool, not a psychological service

ALYGN is communication coaching for everyday messages. It does not diagnose, assess or treat, it is not a clinical or psychological service, and it does not replace the work you do with your clients. Its reads are generated by AI and can be wrong. It is not an emergency service: a client in danger should call their local emergency number.

How it helps

What ALYGN gives you

📋

A picture you can read together

A client adds you as a collaborator and you open a page, with no account: their communication style, five areas estimated from their own messages, the average gap week by week, the two areas they are working on. Never a message, a name or a note.

🔒

Private by design

What a client analyses is sent to the AI to produce the reading, then kept only in their own private space, visible only to them, deletable at any time, never used to train AI models. The page you see holds numbers, not text, and the client can close it with one tap.

📈

Between-session practice

Clients bring real messages from their life, with partners, family, colleagues. Over time the app keeps the patterns that recur in what they write, as estimates, and the trend of the gap.

🧬

A shared vocabulary

Seven communication styles, named in plain words. Once a client recognises their own, you have a shorthand you can use in session without explaining the concept again.

🪞

Their own read first

Before ALYGN reads a message a client received, it asks how they read it. The two readings sit side by side: the story they tell themselves against what arrived, which is often the material you work with.

💬

Free for clients

No install, no account to start, no cost. Clients open alygn.me on any device. You can recommend it without friction or payment barriers.

The collaborator page

What you see when a client adds you

🧭

Communication style

The style the app estimates from the client's own messages, with one line on what it means. Marked as an initial estimate until enough messages have been written.

📊

Five areas, as estimates

Self-awareness, regulation, empathy, reading others, motivation: estimated from what the client wrote, with the number of messages behind them. Never a score of the person.

📉

The gap, week by week

How far what the client meant sat from how their messages landed, averaged per week. Lower is clearer.

🌱

Where they are working

The two lowest areas today. Estimates, not grades: what to work on stays the client's choice.

The styles

Seven communication styles, in plain words

Each style names a pattern you will recognise from your own work with people. They come from decades of research on how messages land; the app never cites authors to the people who use it.

Direct, warm, quick to repair.

🫧

The Softener

Empathetic, conflict-averse, over-apologises.

⚡

The Absolutist

Intense, uses 'always'/'never' under stress.

High EQ, expresses frustration indirectly.
