Features
Gusana tracks your mood, energy, and context over time — then shows you what's actually driving how you feel, week by week.
A secure space to write freely, reflect deeply, and process what you're carrying. PIN-locked and stored only on your device.
Visualise your mental wellness journey through elegant charts and heatmaps. Watch your progress unfold over days, months, and years.

Trained on evidence-based therapy frameworks — CBT, ACT, and mindfulness.

Your conversations never leave your phone. No cloud. No server. No one else reads this.
Knows your history
Leo reads your mood logs and journals to give you truly personalized, contextual support.
