Emotional check-in
Eight emotions. Infinite nuance.
Every Echoes experience starts with a simple question: how do you feel? Your answer shapes everything that follows—from the prompts you see, to the letter you receive, to when it arrives.
Joy
Moments of lightness, warmth, or quiet contentment.
Sub-emotions Echoes can identify
Beyond the surface
From words to understanding
Selecting a primary emotion is just the starting point. When you write your letter, Echoes analyzes the language to identify deeper feelings beneath the surface—distinguishing grief from nostalgia, or restlessness from dread.
No manual labeling required
Sub-emotions are extracted naturally from your words. You never have to label exactly how you feel—just write honestly and the platform does the rest. The result is a match that understands not just what you feel, but how you feel it.
How the check-in works
Choose your emotion
Select the emotion that best describes how you feel right now. Each primary emotion has nuanced sub-emotions that Echoes will identify from your writing.
Set the intensity
Indicate how heavy this feeling is. This helps Echoes adjust both matching and delivery timing. Heavier moments receive support sooner.
Add optional context
Is this feeling new or ongoing? Are you surrounded by people or alone? Do you want resonance, hope, or just a safe space to release? Skip any you like.
Write and send
Choose a gentle prompt or free-write. Your check-in data combined with what you write gives Echoes a rich understanding of your moment for a genuinely relevant match.
Your check-in is never shared with anyone. It exists only to help Echoes understand your moment and find the right letter for you.
