How it works

How Aftercurrent works

Dream capture, optional AI, body data, Archetypes, and long-term patterns each do a different job. Aftercurrent keeps those jobs separate so the app stays understandable.

  • Measured
  • Inferred
  • Written

How it all fits together

One app, distinct parts.

Journal captures the dream. Rhythm adds sleep and body data. Archetype gives you a steadier baseline. Disposition shows how that baseline is leaning today. Insights keeps track of what repeats.

Archetype is the baseline. Disposition is how that baseline is showing up today.
