an ai that helps you get over your ex
Yes - folk is there at 1am when it hits: it talks you out of the text you'll regret, reframes the spiral, and helps you actually move on.
Breakups hit hardest at the worst times - 1am, three drinks in, your thumb hovering over their name. Folk is a personal AI that lives in your texts and is there exactly then: it talks you out of the message you'll regret, reframes the thought spiral, helps you hold no-contact, and slowly helps you build a life that isn't about them. No appointment, no judgment, just there.
how folk does it
the "don't text them" button
Feel the urge? Text folk first. It'll hear you out, remind you why you stopped, and if you really need to get it out, let you send the message to folk instead of to them - same release, none of the regret.
reframe the spiral
When your brain loops on the good parts and what was your fault, folk helps you see it straight: what actually happened, what wasn't yours to carry, and the part of the story you're editing out at 2am.
rebuild, one nudge at a time
Folk helps you fill the space - checking in, suggesting the walk or the gym or the friend instead of the deep-dive on their Instagram, and tracking small wins so you can feel yourself getting better.
what it looks like
i really want to text him. it's been 6 days. i miss him
Six days is real progress - that urge is the withdrawal talking, not a sign you should reach out. What do you miss right now: him, or just not feeling this? Tell me - and if you want, send the text to me instead. I'll read every word.
i miss how he'd call me every night
That nightly call was a real comfort - losing the ritual can hurt more than losing the person. Let's put something there tonight: want me to set a 9pm check-in, and line up one friend you could call instead?
frequently asked
Is folk a replacement for therapy?
No. Folk is a supportive, always-available companion for the hard moments - not a licensed therapist. If you're struggling badly or in crisis, it will encourage you to reach out to a professional or a crisis line, and can help you find one.
Can it actually help me hold no-contact?
Yes. Folk can set check-ins, be the place you vent instead of texting your ex, and remind you of your reasons in the moments you're about to break. It remembers your situation so you don't have to re-explain.
Is what I tell it private?
Completely. Folk runs in your own isolated sandbox, never trains on your data, and only sees what you send it. $20/mo for Pro, with a free tier to start.
