Awake at 3am and feel like you're the only one? Vigil is an
anonymous app for people who can't sleep, feel lonely at night, or can't
stop overthinking once the lights go out.

Vigil only opens between midnight and 5am. Inside, you'll see exactly how
many other people are awake with you right now, anywhere in the world.
Their anonymous thoughts drift past — one honest sentence each, from real
people dealing with insomnia, anxiety, grief, night shifts, new babies,
heartbreak, or racing thoughts they can't switch off.

Release one thought of your own, anonymously, and let it drift into the
room. Tap someone else's thought to send a single gentle Pulse — a quiet
haptic that simply says: someone is with you. No chat, no profiles, no
followers. Just real presence, when you need it most.

At 5am, everything disappears. Nothing is saved, nothing is searchable.
Vigil is built for the one thing every sleepless night has in common:
you're never actually the only one awake.

WHY PEOPLE OPEN VIGIL AT 3AM
- Feeling lonely at night or can't sleep
- Overthinking, anxious thoughts, or a racing mind before bed
- New parents up for a feed, night shift workers, or long-haul insomnia
- Wanting to vent anonymously without judgment or an audience
- Needing to feel less alone without talking to anyone

WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE VIGIL

- THE COUNT — the first thing you see: how many people are awake with you
right now, glowing softly on a dark map of the world.

- FIREFLIES — anonymous, single-sentence thoughts from other sleepless
people drift across your screen like embers. "Big interview in 5 hours."
"The baby finally slept and now I can't." "Can't stop thinking about my
dad."

- RELEASE ONE THOUGHT — you can share one thought per night. It becomes a
firefly for someone else to find. At 5am, everything disappears forever.
Nothing is saved, nothing is searchable.

- THE PULSE — tap a stranger's thought and they feel a single soft
heartbeat on their phone: "someone is with you." No chat. No replies. No
pressure. Just presence.

- DAWN — at 5am, the room slowly brightens, the fireflies fade, and Vigil
locks until the next midnight. You made it through the night.

WHY VIGIL IS DIFFERENT

Most apps want your daytime. Vigil only exists for the hours when being
awake feels heaviest — for the night owls, the overthinkers, the new
parents, the shift workers, the heartbroken, and everyone dealing with
sleepless nights or insomnia who just wants to feel less alone at night.

- Completely anonymous — no account, no profile, no photos
- Nothing persists — every thought vanishes at dawn
- No chat or comments — so no trolls, no pressure, no performing
- Designed for tired eyes — deep dark theme, slow gentle motion, zero
harsh light
- Report any thought with one tap — the night stays kind

A GENTLE NOTE

Vigil is a place for company, not a substitute for professional help. If
your nights feel heavier than loneliness, the moon icon inside the app
connects you to free crisis and support lines in your region, any time.
