The one-line-a-day constraint plus a semantic search API is a lovely combo, capturing how it felt without turning journaling into a chore. Can you query past entries by mood or theme?

for the ones who write. whether from your phone or your server. tinytrace is a poetic little journaling app. it's built for people who want to remember how it felt — not just what happened. one sentence each day. tinytrace reads between the lines. no stats, no streaks, no judgment. behind the scenes, tinytrace is also a semantic archive — with a simple api for logging, embedding, and searching entries across time. send a line. we’ll handle batching, storage, and search — so you can build something quiet and meaningful, too.
