Echologue is a private voice journal that turns spoken notes into a memory you can question later. The idea is simple: instead of typing, you talk — a thought on a walk, a reflection after a meeting, a small realization before bed — and the app captures it. It supports voice-first capture in 50+ languages, and typed entries too, so the friction of journaling largely disappears.
What separates it from a plain voice-memo recorder is the middle step. Each entry is processed into structure — Echologue separates facts from feelings and pulls out entities (people, places) and themes — so your history stays legible instead of piling up as a wall of raw recordings. On top of that structure sits semantic recall: you can ask about a person, a place, a mood, or a time period in natural language and it surfaces the entries that actually matter, even when you don't remember the exact words you used. There's also a chat layer that answers grounded in your own entries, and you control which useful clarifications from that chat become permanent memory versus staying off the record.
Privacy is the product's spine, not a bullet point. Echologue is local-first: your journal lives on your device, AI processing is described as ephemeral, and there's no account required for your local archive — so there's no server-side copy to delete. You can export the whole journal as JSON or CSV, keep your own backup, or wipe the app at any time. It surfaced publicly as a Show HN by an independent developer who built it for their own use.
Pricing is freemium. The free tier gives you unlimited typed entries plus a monthly allowance of voice capture and AI replies (20 voice notes, 15 voice minutes, and 10 AI replies per month at the time of writing). A paid Premium tier lifts those limits substantially — unlimited voice notes, hundreds of voice minutes and AI replies per month — and adds custom personas and finer memory controls. It's honest to note what Echologue is not: it's a private thinking and recall tool, not a content generator or publisher. It has no concept of an audience, a feed, or a post — by design.
Echologue is where the raw spark lives — the half-formed idea you narrate while driving, the lesson you talk through after a client call, the story you tell yourself before you've decided it's "content." That's genuinely valuable, and it's also where most of those ideas die: they stay private, unstructured for an audience, and un-published. Kompozy is the production line that takes the handful of entries worth sharing and turns them into finished, on-brand content — without you having to sit down and write from scratch.
The concrete workflow uses Echologue's own export. When a voice reflection is clearly a post, a lesson, or a story your audience needs, export that entry (JSON or CSV) or copy its transcript, then drop it into Kompozy as source material. Kompozy fans one rambling voice note into a coordinated set: a Blog Article that develops the thought for search, an Email Newsletter version, a Carousel built via HyperFrames that breaks it into slides, Quote Graphics of the one line worth pulling, Text Posts for X and LinkedIn, and even a Persona or HeyGen avatar Short that delivers the idea on camera in your voice — every piece governed by your Persona Brief so it all sounds like you, not like a transcript. Then Autopilot and a per-post review pipeline schedule and publish the batch across eight social platforms plus blog and email. Echologue keeps your private memory private; Kompozy takes only what you choose to make public and ships it everywhere.

It's freemium. The free tier includes unlimited typed entries plus a monthly allowance of voice capture and AI replies (around 20 voice notes, 15 voice minutes, and 10 AI replies per month at the time of writing). A paid Premium tier raises those limits and adds custom personas and memory controls — check the app for current pricing.
No, and it doesn't try to. Echologue is a private recall tool with no concept of a feed, a post, or an audience. To turn a voice-captured idea into published content, export the entry and use a content engine like Kompozy, which generates a blog, newsletter, carousel, graphics, and avatar video in your brand voice and publishes across platforms.
Export the entries worth sharing (JSON or CSV) or copy their transcripts, then use them as source material in Kompozy. Kompozy expands one voice note into a coordinated set of formats governed by your Persona Brief, then schedules and publishes them across eight social platforms plus blog and email.
