    You talk, and it automatically builds a visual network of your beliefs, thoughts, desires, and more. The system extracts concepts like beliefs, emotions, and cognitive distortions, then updates a force-directed graph showing how everything connects. Recurring nodes naturally drift toward the center as the graph expands, revealing your core themes. It isn’t intended for therapeutic use.
