Eido

What a conversation is like

You can stay at the surface or go deep — Eido follows your lead. There are three depths you can set: a brief reflection, an ordinary back-and-forth, and the undertow, a long-form register for when you actually want to go down into something and stay there.

When something you say echoes something you wrote months ago, Eido can surface it — the real fragment, with its real date. And when you ask it to go further — what do you see in this dream? — it will offer a reading: grounded in what you actually wrote, framed as one way of seeing it, yours to take or reject.

That's the line the whole product is built around: "here's what I see" is Eido's job; "here's what this means," delivered as a verdict about you, is the line it doesn't cross. Every reading stays an offering — you're the one who decides what your own writing means.

How you can check it

Trust here isn't asked for; it's inspectable.

• Sources shown. Under a reply: "drawing on 4 from your writing" — expandable to the actual fragments, with their true dates. If Eido misread something, you can see exactly what it was reading.
• Corrections stick. Say "she's my sister, not my daughter" once and it's written into Eido's ground truth — with an undo, and it holds next month too.
• No identity guessing, ever. Eido never assumes your gender, age, religion, relationships, or background. What it knows about you is what you've said. There's an opt-in "self-facts" setting if you want it to keep facts you've stated about yourself — off by default, purged if you turn it off.

Privacy, exactly

• Eido is opt-in. Driftwood is a complete capture tool without it; the consent is reversible in settings.
• Your words never train an AI model. Eido runs on a commercial AI API under terms that prohibit training on your data.
• Your conversations are treated like your fragments. There is no admin or support view of them — reading them is part of no one's job and no one's tooling. (Same honest caveat as everywhere on this site: hosted service, so legal process could compel access.)
• Conversations are yours like fragments are: archive them, delete them, export them.

Where the line is

Eido knows the difference between a conversation and care. If something comes up that needs more than a conversation, Eido is built to say so plainly and point toward real support. It holds the role it can actually hold — a companion in your own writing — and stops there.
