Personalized recovery plans
The onboarding answers a user chooses are used to generate a practical starting plan.
What Synapse includes
Daily check-ins
Users log wins, difficult days, slips, triggers, notes, and completed recovery tasks.
Recovery Score
A transparent 0–100 daily indicator calculated locally from activity already recorded in Synapse.
Smart Streak Recovery
A slip can lower progress indicators without erasing lifetime clean days or the previous best streak.
AI Coach
The coach can use the user's plan, streak, selected recovery identity, and relevant recent activity to provide contextual guidance.
Urge and emergency tools
Users can log urges, use a timed urge screen, and receive a short post-slip recovery mission.
Command Mode and Focus Mode
Two interfaces present the same underlying recovery data in tactical or calmer visual styles.
Synapse Shield
The companion Chrome extension can block, limit, or schedule configured sites and run enforcement offline.
How the recovery loop works
- Describe the pattern. Choose the habits and answer onboarding questions.
- Generate a starting plan. Synapse turns the answers into a personalized recovery plan.
- Record what happens. Daily check-ins and urge logs capture wins, difficult days, slips, and triggers.
- Adjust without erasing history. Scores, momentum, reports, and post-slip tools reflect current activity while preserving earlier progress.
More than blocking or counting days
A blocker controls access, and a streak tracker counts consecutive days. Synapse connects both ideas to plans, check-ins, urge records, recovery metrics, reports, and contextual guidance. Explore our Recovery Score and Smart Streak Recovery features to see the full architecture.
| Tool | Primary job | After a difficult day | Context retained |
|---|---|---|---|
| Site blocker | Restrict access | Rule remains or is bypassed | Usually rule and usage data |
| Streak tracker | Count consecutive days | Streak commonly returns to zero | Dates and streak totals |
| Synapse Rewire | Plan, check in, track patterns, and recover | History remains; indicators update; recovery tools appear | Plan, check-ins, urges, triggers, progress, and optional Shield activity |
Straight answers before you start
Is Synapse therapy?
No. It is self-help and accountability software. It does not diagnose conditions or replace qualified care.
Can it work without Shield?
Yes. The web platform works independently; Synapse Shield adds optional website enforcement.
