FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
Is Abyss therapy?
No. Abyss is a reflection environment, not a medical service. If you need clinical support, please reach out to a qualified mental health professional.
How do the response styles work?
Each thought can move through layers you control: Silent Abyss senses your presence, Echoes reflects the feeling, Ways of Seeing offers another interpretation, and Resonance can reveal when a feeling may be shared. You decide how far a response goes.
How is this different from ChatGPT or journaling apps?
Notes store a thought and an assistant answers it. Abyss is built to help you process rather than produce — no output pressure, no metrics, and your reflections stay private by default.
Do I need an account?
You can try Abyss straight away. Create a free account to keep your private archive and manage membership — no public profile, ever.
Is Abyss available now?
Yes. Abyss is open in your browser at abyss.ie. Mobile apps are planned.
Is anonymous resonance safe?
Resonance is opt-in and only ever indicates that a feeling may be shared — never who, and never your words. It ships with safety systems and moderation.
What data do you store?
As little as possible. What you release is processed in the moment to create a response, and Abyss doesn’t keep it unless you turn on Archive saving. If you do, your reflections are saved privately to your account, encrypted in transit and at rest, and you can delete them at any time. No ads, your data is never sold, and your reflections are never used to train AI models. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
Why membership?
Advanced ‘Ways of Seeing’ responses require compute and ongoing refinement. Resonance requires safety systems and moderation. Membership keeps Abyss ad-free and metric-free.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You can cancel whenever you like — there’s no lock-in. You’ll keep access until the end of your current billing period.
Do you offer promo codes?
Yes — event and partner codes can be entered at checkout.
