ThreadTalk

Questions people ask before they start

Is this an actual spoken conversation, or am I typing at a bot?

You talk out loud and Nova answers out loud, in real time — there is nothing to type. Nova is software, not a person, and will say so if you ask. That is exactly where the value sits: Nova stays in the scene, lets a tangent happen without sighing, and lets you run the same opening five times without anyone getting bored.

Who hears my voice, and what happens to the recording?

Nobody on our side hears it. Your microphone connects straight from your browser to OpenAI, the US company whose model gives Nova its voice — the audio never touches our servers, OpenAI receives your IP address with it, and OpenAI's own terms apply there. What stays with us is the written transcript, on servers in Frankfurt, and it is deleted automatically 30 days after the session ends. Under Account & privacy you can export everything we hold, or delete your account and everything in it, yourself: no email, no waiting.

What does it cost, and can I cancel?

12 € a month or 120 € a year, and yes — any time, in the Stripe customer portal, without contacting us. A card starts the 3 free days: cancel inside them and nothing is charged. Cancel later and access runs to the end of the period you already paid for. During the trial you can work up to five exercises a day; a subscription lifts that limit. And one exercise is free before any of it, with no card at all. One thing worth knowing up front: the free days are granted once per programme. Cancel and come back later, and the new subscription is charged straight away.

Is this treatment for ADHD?

No, and it does not pretend to be. ThreadTalk is communication practice: nothing here diagnoses anything, treats anything or promises that symptoms will change, and Nova will never push you to disclose anything about yourself to anyone. What you practise is craft — opening with the point, holding the thread through the tangents, landing it — for a brain that arrives at everything at once. Clinical support is a different thing entirely, and a good one to have.
