Is MOODS Right for You? (Read Before Starting)

MOODS is a private AI system for structured self-reflection.

You bring in something you want to explore and choose one of its authored guides to work with. During the session, your guide may ask questions, challenge an assumption, or offer another way of looking at what you’ve shared.

Nothing MOODS says should be treated as privileged knowledge about you. Its responses are generated by AI, which means they can be perceptive in one moment and incomplete or mistaken in another. Some responses simply won’t be useful.

Your judgment stays with you throughout the session. You decide what’s worth considering and what you leave behind.

MOODS is for adults 18 and over.

Who MOODS Is For

MOODS may suit you if you want to examine your thoughts, reactions, choices, or patterns that keep showing up. It also asks for some comfort with metaphor, ambiguity, and questions that may remain open for a while.

You should feel able to disagree with the system when something doesn’t fit and understand that reflection here is different from receiving advice, diagnosis, coaching, or instruction.

During a session, you can challenge an archetype, correct an assumption, ignore a question, change direction, or leave whenever you want.

The conversation is yours to participate in, not something the system conducts on your behalf.

What MOODS Is Not

MOODS isn’t therapy, mental health care, crisis support, diagnosis, or professional advice. It doesn’t predict the future, provide prophecy, or hold authority over what is true about you.

It also isn’t an AI companion or a replacement for human relationships. The guides aren’t divine or supernatural beings, and their responses aren’t communications from hidden, cosmic, or spiritual entities. Whatever voice you’re speaking with inside MOODS is an authored guide generated through an AI system.

Nothing within MOODS has secret access to facts about you that you don’t possess yourself.

Don’t use MOODS to make high-stakes decisions about your health, safety, finances, legal situation, or anything else that calls for qualified professional judgment.

How to Use MOODS

Bring in something you want to examine. It could be a dream, a conflict, a decision you keep revisiting, something you’re avoiding, or a question you haven’t figured out how to answer.

Treat the response as material to work with rather than an instruction to follow. When something feels useful, stay with it and see where it takes you. When it doesn’t fit, say so. Correct the system when it misunderstands you, and reject an interpretation when you think it’s wrong.

MOODS works best when you remain involved in the conversation and keep your own judgment intact.

Safety

MOODS isn’t an emergency or crisis service.

If you’re in immediate danger, think you may hurt yourself or someone else, or need urgent support, stop using MOODS and contact emergency or crisis services where you live.

There are also conversations MOODS isn’t designed to handle safely. In those cases, the system may stop or restrict the session.

Pay attention to what the experience is doing to you while you’re using it. If a session is leaving you increasingly distressed, disoriented, overwhelmed, or unable to get some distance from what’s happening, stop.

Privacy

People bring deeply personal information into MOODS, so privacy is treated as a serious responsibility.

We don’t sell or rent personal data, and our business doesn’t depend on advertising against your conversations.

To generate responses, MOODS uses third-party AI infrastructure. Conversation content therefore has to be sent to an external AI provider for processing.

Support

Support handles technical and account issues such as bugs, access, billing, and problems using the product.

It can’t interpret your sessions, tell you what an archetype “really meant,” or provide psychological guidance. Support isn’t an emergency service either.

For help, see How to Contact Support.

Before You Begin

Some sessions may show you something you hadn’t considered before. Others may offer very little, or give you an interpretation you disagree with completely. Both are possible when you’re working with AI.

MOODS can offer another perspective on what you bring to it. What you do with that perspective remains your decision.

The system doesn’t get the final word on your life. You do.
