Everything you need to know about tracking mental health, optimizing sleep, and exploring consciousness with ALETHE.

Welcome to ALETHE

ALETHE is a privacy-first mental health and consciousness tracking platform. Unlike corporate wellness apps, your data stays yours—encrypted, local-first, never sold.

Core Features

  • Mental Health Tracking: Daily check-ins, mood patterns, clinical assessments
  • Sleep Optimization: Track and improve your sleep quality
  • Consciousness Telescope: Explore meditation, flow states, altered consciousness
  • Pattern Recognition: AI-powered insights into what affects your wellbeing
  • Privacy First: Data encrypted, local-first storage when possible

Getting Started

Setting Up Your Profile

ALETHE works best when you're honest with yourself:

  1. Complete initial baseline assessments
  2. Set tracking preferences (daily check-ins, sleep tracking, etc.)
  3. Choose notification preferences
  4. Review privacy settings

Daily Check-Ins

Brief daily check-ins (60-90 seconds) help ALETHE understand your patterns. You'll answer quick questions about mood, energy, sleep, and notable events.

Tip: Set a consistent time each day. Morning check-ins capture sleep data, evening check-ins reflect on the full day.

Mental Health Tracking

Understanding Your Patterns

ALETHE analyzes your check-ins to identify patterns. You might notice:

  • Mood fluctuations tied to specific days or events
  • Anxiety spikes correlated with sleep quality
  • Energy levels affected by exercise or social interaction
  • Seasonal patterns (SAD, winter blues)

Assessments

ALETHE includes validated clinical assessments:

Available Assessments

PHQ-9 - Depression screening (9 questions)

GAD-7 - Anxiety screening (7 questions)

PSS - Perceived Stress Scale

Custom - Build your own tracking metrics

Take assessments weekly or monthly to track trends. ALETHE will alert you to significant changes that might warrant professional consultation.

Remember: These are screening tools, not diagnoses. Always consult a mental health professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Sleep Optimization

Sleep Tracking

Track sleep manually or integrate with wearables:

  • Sleep duration (time in bed vs actual sleep)
  • Sleep quality (subjective rating)
  • Factors affecting sleep (caffeine, exercise, stress, screens)
  • Wake-up feeling (refreshed vs groggy)

Sleep Insights

ALETHE identifies what affects your sleep quality:

  • Optimal bedtime windows
  • Activities that help or harm sleep
  • Circadian rhythm patterns
  • Sleep debt accumulation
Consistency matters more than perfection. Even a few weeks of tracking reveals powerful insights about your sleep patterns.

Consciousness Telescope

Exploring States of Consciousness

The Consciousness Telescope helps you track and understand different states:

  • Meditation states (focus, awareness, bliss)
  • Flow states (deep work, creative flow)
  • Altered states (psychedelics, breathwork, etc.)
  • Dream states (lucid dreaming, dream recall)

Integration Practices

For experiences that require integration (especially altered states), ALETHE provides guided journaling prompts and tracking to help you process and learn from these experiences.
