The Story Behind Monolog

I’ve tried many journaling tools over the years, both physical and digital. But they all had one thing in common: writing in them felt like work.

I ended up overthinking formatting and how to phrase things instead of simply getting my thoughts out.

This works well for some people, but I wanted something lighter. For me, it’s much easier to open up when I imagine talking to a non-judgmental friend or a professional who’s just there to listen.

That’s why the new, chat format feels so natural! I don’t have to think about structure or writing perfectly. I can simply type and send whatever is on my mind.

And that’s how Monolog was born: a journaling app that’s lighter than a bullet journal, designed to help you get your thoughts out.
