Who's behind Sojiwa

Two engineers who kept asking: are we helping anyone?

We spent ten years building enterprise systems. Then a friend told us: everyone has stress, but not everyone has someone they feel comfortable talking to. We never forgot it.

So we built Sojiwa, and we keep changing it based on what you tell us:

What we heardWhat we changed
A friend said the app felt a little slow.We tuned every screen to run more smoothly.
Some people found the design a little harsh and asked for a dark mode.We softened the design and added a dark theme.
Some people said journaling alone had started to feel like homework.We added a pet that grows as you care for yourself.
Some people said signing in took too many steps.You can now sign in with Google or use your fingerprint or face.
Friends using iPhones or phones without Google Play wanted to use Sojiwa too.We built a web version for any browser.

Have an idea? Send it in Settings › Help & support. If we build it, you become a co-creator.
