Calmae

Hey Product Hunters! 👋 I'm Robin, creator of Calmae, and I'm so excited to share this with you today. Why I built this: I noticed that most mood tracking apps felt either too clinical (like filling out a medical form) or too gamified (guilt-tripping you about broken streaks). I wanted something different a space that felt like a warm hug, not a productivity metric. The idea came from my own experience: some days I just needed to acknowledge "today was heavy" without someone trying to fix it or optimize it. I wanted permission to feel what I was feeling, not another app telling me to "maintain my streak" or "achieve my mental health goals." The problem we're solving: Emotional awareness is hard when apps feel cold or pushy. Calmae creates a gentle, judgment-free space where your feelings are valid exactly as they are. Couples often struggle to share emotions. Our couple journaling feature lets partners understand each other's emotional landscapes without awkward conversations or pressure. Mental health apps can feel like homework. Calmae takes less than a minute. It's a soft exhale, not another task. How we evolved: I started with just solo mood tracking, but beta users kept asking: "Can my partner see this?" That's when I realized emotional intimacy in relationships needed the same gentle approach. So we added couple journaling a private space where partners can share mood cards and reflections. The design philosophy evolved too. Every color, gradient, and message was crafted to feel warm and feminine like a cozy journal, not a tracking dashboard. We use phrases like "You're allowed to pause" instead of "Track your progress." I'd love your feedback on: Does the couple journaling feature resonate with you? What other gentle features would make emotional check-ins easier? How do you currently track or share your emotions? Thank you for being here on launch day. Your support means everything. 💛 Download Calmae and let me know what you think!
