How does Ellie analyse my chats?
Ellie uses a custom architecture to process a year's worth of messages from your selected contacts. State-of-the-art cloud AI turns your conversations into meaningful insights.
Which conversations does Ellie analyze?
Only the chats you select. You're in full control of what Ellie sees.
How far back does Ellie look?
Ellie analyzes up to one year of messages from your selected conversations (we are working on making this two years for certain insights).
How long does it take to get my reflection?
Once you connect your WhatsApp, Ellie analyses your data in seconds. Your first reflection is ready to view immediately.
How does Ellie connect to my WhatsApp?
You link your WhatsApp to Ellie. Your messages pass through our servers and are stored securely on your phone — we don't keep them, we just pass them through without further processing.
Will my contacts know I'm using Ellie?
No. Ellie works silently in the background. Your contacts won't receive any notifications or messages. Of course, sharing your favorite insights is always up to you.
Is my data actually private?
Yes. Your messages are for your eyes only. Ellie is built to guard your intimate data, not mine it. We never sell, share, or train on your messages and contacts. Your messages stay encrypted on your phone. During syncing and reflection processing, they're processed in the cloud but never stored there.
Why do my messages need to go through the cloud?
Generating meaningful insights requires powerful AI that runs on cloud servers. Your messages are processed in-memory and immediately discarded—never stored.
Who are your technology providers?
We use OpenRouter and Google for AI processing. Neither we nor our providers permanently store or train on your chat content.
What happens to my data if I delete my Ellie account?
All your data is permanently deleted from our servers. No backups, no records. You have full control. We do keep anonymous usage statistics that aren't linked to your account and therefore can't be deleted with it.
Is Ellie GDPR compliant?
Yes. Ellie is fully compliant with GDPR and other major data protection regulations.
Does Ellie work with other messaging apps?
Currently, Ellie works with WhatsApp. We're working on supporting for other platforms in the future.
Can I get a new reflection later?
Ellie Mini gives you just one reflection. Future versions of Ellie will offer continuous reflections and more as your conversations evolve.
Is Ellie free?
The currently released Ellie Mini is free.
