## Description

Shanlu is inspired by the East Asian tradition of merit journals — a journal that grows a life of its own.

In a world of apps that push you to be faster and more disciplined, Shanlu chooses not to push: no broken-streak punishments, no anxiety-red badges. Some things don't need to be solved right away. They just need to be received, gently.

■ A spirit that keeps you company
- Write down one small kindness or one honest moment of noticing — your spirit receives it first
- It has its own temperament and day-night rhythms, comes closer when you touch it, and remembers your first meeting
- Eight stages of growth and evolution; a four-season garden and an evolution collection

■ Daily records, free forever
- Daily records are free forever, with no limits
- Every entry leaves a trace on your spirit

■ Mirror: turning records into understanding
- "Recent Me" gently weaves your last week or two into a short reflection
- Deep insights across seven themes — career, learning, relationships and more — archived automatically for rereading
- Behavior profile and long-term trends (some features require a subscription)

■ Coach: a deeper talk for when you're stuck
- Conversations grounded in your own records — no judging, no lecturing
- Keep a line of guidance in your companion memories with one tap
- It's fine to just leave things here — not every talk needs a conclusion

■ Daily study
- A study card, one question, an evening lesson — a little each day is enough
- Choose a path of practice: tea ceremony, calligraphy, Yangming philosophy and more
- Revisit any reflection and add how you see it now, side by side with how you saw it then

■ Ink Night
- A new dark theme for quiet late-night writing
