Notes that talk with you is an AI-coach journaling app by Rin, Inc.: a daily prompt invites you to write, and an AI coach (designed by a professional coach) asks follow-up questions drawn from your notes to help you clarify your thinking. Over time your entries grow an eight-axis values radar (Growth, Challenge, Connection, Stability, Integrity, Joy, Freedom…), making trade-offs visible. The product is framed as everyday self-awareness, not therapy.
Background
Rin, Inc. was founded in June 2025 in Toyohashi, Japan, by Gallup-Certified coach Hiroshi Tsuruta. 'Notes that talk with you' launched first in Japan and released its English version in August 2026 on the Japanese and global App Store / Google Play.
Technology
The AI coach reads the user's notes and values map and guides thinking through questions rather than giving advice; the values framework is the team's own eight-axis model built on Shalom Schwartz's theory of basic human values.
Market
It sits in the personal-growth space of 'digital journal × AI coach,' between plain journals and general chatbots, emphasizing structure and continuity, and is explicitly not positioned as therapy.
Best For
People who want journaling for self-awarenessThose stuck in loops about work or relationships and need clarityUsers who prefer question-led guidance over direct adviceAnyone wanting to see how their values shift over time
Editorial Note
Notes that talk with you turns journaling into a conversation with yourself; the eight-axis values radar is a rare and useful design, and it's free to start. Downsides: deeper coaching and guided Works sit behind Notes+, and the mobile radar feels cramped on small screens.
Strengths
- + One daily prompt, very low barrier, easy habit to build
- + Eight-axis values radar makes trade-offs visible
- + AI coach guides with questions instead of deciding for you
- + No sign-up, free basic features
Drawbacks
- − Deeper conversations and guided Works are behind Notes+
- − Mobile radar feels cramped on small screens
- − Some prompts feel generic, lacking personal context
- − Not positioned as therapy; seek professionals for serious distress
Value Assessment：Best for people who want everyday self-awareness through writing and dislike being told what to do; not a substitute for clinical support.
