what people say

"I've tried Day One, Notion, and paper journals. Nuuko is the first one I've used past week 2. The prompts don't feel cheesy and I actually look forward to opening it."

🌸 Sarah K. · beta tester

"I used to spiral when anxious. Now I open Nuuko, write for 5 minutes, and feel lighter. The mood tracking helped me notice I'm calmer on days I journal."

🍃 Alex T. · student

"No streaks guilt-tripping me. No word counts judging me. Just a cozy space that's there when I need it. This is what journaling should feel like."

Jamie L. · early user

why i built nuuko

I used to buy beautiful notebooks that sat empty. I'd download journaling apps, use them for a few days, then feel guilty when I stopped. Everything felt like a productivity tool in disguise—streaks, word counts, daily reminders that made me feel worse, not better.

The truth is, consistency is hard. Life gets busy. Some days you have nothing to say. And that's okay.

I didn't need another app tracking my habits. I needed a space that felt safe to open—even on hard days, even when I had nothing profound to write.

So I built Nuuko. A cozy place to hear yourself again. No pressure. No judgment. Just you and your thoughts, whenever you're ready.
