The deal, in plain English.
Effective November 11, 2026
Who we are
Inner Helix is a small business based in Louisiana, USA. You can reach us at support@innerhelix.app.
What Inner Helix is
Inner Helix is a two-minute daily journal. You log your inner self (mind) and your outer self (body), and it reports plain findings counted from your own days. It is a record-keeping tool. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and it is not a substitute for a doctor or a counselor. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (US).
Your account
- You sign in with a link we email to you. There are no passwords. Anyone who can read that inbox can open your journal, so keep the email account secure.
- One account is for one person. Don't share your sign-in links.
- Give us a real email address that you control.
Who can use it
You must be 18 or older to create an account.
Plans and billing
- Free gives you the daily log, your strand, your own threads and your history.
- Plus adds insights across your whole history, thread comparisons, the weekly written reading and a download of your journal. It costs $5.99 a month or $49.99 a year in US dollars, plus sales tax where it applies.
- Plus is a subscription. It renews each month or year at the price you chose, until you cancel.
- Checkout and billing are run by Stripe. Stripe takes your payment details; we never see your full card number. Stripe emails you a receipt.
- Cancel any time on the Plans screen with Manage or cancel. You keep Plus until the end of the period you paid for, and nothing further is charged.
- If we ever change a price, you will be told before it applies to your next renewal.
Your journal
- What you write is yours. We don't own it, sell it, or use it for ads.
- You give us permission to store it and process it only as needed to run Inner Helix for you, including writing your weekly reading if you are on Plus.
- Plus members can download everything. Anyone can delete everything from Settings, which also cancels a Plus subscription first.
- Our privacy policy lists exactly what we keep and who handles it.
The weekly reading
Plus includes a short written reading of your last full week, produced by an AI model from your own entries. It describes what you logged. It can be wrong or incomplete, it gives no advice, and it is not a diagnosis. It is made once per week, and only on request from the app.
Using it fairly
- Use Inner Helix for your own journal.
- Don't try to read anyone else's data, break or overload the service, scrape it, or copy its design or code.
- Don't resell access or run it for others as a service.
- We may suspend an account that does these things.
Refunds
Ask within 14 days of a charge for a full refund. The details are in our refund policy.
Availability
We work to keep Inner Helix running, but we can't promise it will never be interrupted. Your entries are saved to your account, so logging a day needs an internet connection.
Warranty and liability
Inner Helix is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Ending your use
You can stop any time by deleting your account in Settings. We may close an account that breaks these terms; if we do and you are on Plus, we will refund the unused part of what you paid for the current period.
Changes
We may update these terms. The effective date at the top tells you when they last changed. If a change matters to your plan, we will email you first.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Louisiana, USA.
