The short version: The Midnight Alchemist uses artificial intelligence to create a private reflection from information you choose to provide. Selected onboarding details and recent journal context are sent securely to our AI processing provider. Generated reflections may be inaccurate and are not medical advice.
The app uses AI to generate your daily reflections (rituals), transcripts of your spoken entries, journal insights, and — where you have given separate voice consent — spoken audio of your reflections voiced using your own Voice Signature. Every reflection is AI-generated. Audio produced with your Voice Signature is synthetic audio in the likeness of your voice, and is labelled as such in the app.
We send only what the current task needs. Your content is not used by us to train AI models, and we do not sell it or use it for advertising. See the Privacy Policy for the full processor list, retention periods and international-transfer details.
Voice cloning happens only with your separate, explicit consent. The original recording is not kept after processing completes. You can withdraw voice consent at any time in Settings; withdrawal deletes the voice model at our provider. Full details are in the Privacy Policy and on the account & data deletion page.
AI-generated reflections can be incomplete or wrong. They are for your private self-reflection only. They are not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice, and they are never used to make legal or similarly significant decisions about you. You decide whether to use or act on them. You can delete or report any generated item in the app.
You are not interacting with a human when you receive a reflection. If you have questions about any AI-generated content, or want to object to AI processing, contact support@themidnightalchemist.com. The Midnight Alchemist is a self-development tool, not a crisis service — if you are in crisis, contact your local emergency services or a crisis line such as Lifeline (13 11 14 in Australia).
