About us

About Gary, from the team behind Pleso Therapy.

Gary is an AI journaling app made by Pleso Therapy, an online therapy platform based in Poland. Working in online therapy, we kept hearing the same thing: so much of life happens between appointments. We built Gary for that time.

Gary, the turtle

A small, steady companion. Not a therapist.

Gary is a turtle for a reason: unhurried, steady, and happy to carry a little of what you bring. It helps you reflect. It doesn’t diagnose, advise or replace care.

Four things we hold ourselves to

  1. Your words stay yours.Content is encrypted when stored, and Pleso’s staff tools have no access to it. You choose what is stored, and you can export or delete it any time.
  2. We’re honest about AI.Gary always tells you it is AI. Replies stay close to what you said, and never invent patterns or labels.
  3. Care, not engagement.No streaks, no guilt, no countdowns. One neutral weekly reminder at most, and only if you want it.
  4. Safety comes first.If something sounds urgent, Gary points to real support straight away. No paywall ever gets in the way.

Hi, I’m Gary.

I’m an AI journal made by the people at Pleso Therapy. You tell me what’s on your mind, I reflect it back and ask one question at a time.

I’m not a therapist, and I’ll always tell you I’m AI.
